The word probiotic literally means “for life.” A probiotic is defined as any live microorganism that is naturally found in the human gut and confers benefits to the body.* In recent months, these “friendly bacteria” have gained huge popularity! Countless studies have confirmed their numerous health-promoting properties, helping to propel them to the upper echelon of the supplement world.* When the right kind of probiotic is consumed in the right quantities, these good bacteria can have a profound impact on whole body health by shifting the ecosystem of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract.*

Spore-forming probiotic bacteria have lately gained increased scientific and commercial interest due to their medicinal properties. Spore-based probiotics are bacteria found in dirt and vegetation that are generated from spores.

Spore-based probiotics colonise fast and are considerably more resilient than conventional probiotics.

Yes, spore-based probiotics are safe. They are also effective because the endospores that encapsulate the strains are extremely resistant to stomach acid. These spores are perhaps the best at leading in the transport of more viable probiotics to the small intestine. Our Organic Triphala Blend with its multiple strains may have an edge over Lactobacillus and acidophilus. Lactobacillus bacteria (such as Lactobacillus acidophilus) have long been considered the gold standard for probiotics. However, new reports on the survival and effectiveness of these microorganisms have shifted the conversation. Digestive health experts now recognize the inherent limitations of most lactobacillus:
Do not survive digestive transit
Do not reach the large intestine
Do not retain viability during the manufacturing process
Secrete D-lactic acid (unfavorable for health)*
Do not create diversity in gut microflora (as trillions of lactobacillus already reside in the human GI tract)
Require huge overages (to meet label claims for CFU)

Most people consider probiotics to be safe. The most commonly reported side effects are gas and bloating. Although somewhat new, there are many benefits to spores. Spore probiotics are emerging as a promising alternative to lactobacilli. The science suggests that spores have multiple advantages: Do not require refrigeration Resist stomach acid breakdown* Effectively colonize the human GI tract* Secrete L-lactic acid (favorable for health) * Create diversity in gut microflora (only 500 million bacillus naturally reside in the human gut, so a 6 billion CFU dose is at least 12x greater and stimulates a strong biological response) *

Some people may suffer gas or bloating when they first start taking probiotics. Changes in the gut microbiota might cause bacteria to produce more gas than normal, resulting in bloating. These side effects, however, usually go away after a few days of taking probiotics.
