Firstly, it contains both prebiotics and probiotics, which makes it symbiotic. Prebiotics are essential for feeding the good bacteria in our gut, ensuring it&apos;s a healthy and diverse baseline before adding in any other microbes (probiotics). Think of prebiotics as fertiliser for your gut. There&apos;s a growing body of research that suggests prebiotics may be more important than probiotics.&#xA0;</p><p data-changed="false" data-paragraphid="533">We use a very well studied strain of probiotic bacteria in our formula called Bacillus Coagulans. Unlike other probiotics, which may boast &quot;&quot;25 strains&quot;&quot; of probiotics, each at very low dosages, we use a single strain at a very high dosage.In 2006, an expert panel proposed by the Food &amp; Agriculture Organization and World Health Organization suggested that probiotic activity was more important than the source (i.e., Lactobacillus, Bifidobacterium, etc), and the strain we use is proven to have very high activity.&#xA0;</p><p data-changed="false" data-paragraphid="534">The difference between our probiotic and these other examples is that Bacillus Coagulans is naturally protected with a proteinaceous &quot;cocoon&quot; that allows it to withstand the harsh effects of heat, oxygen, ultraviolet rays, and stomach acid. As soon as B. coagulans hits the alkaline environment of the small intestine, the protein shell dissolves and the organism activates. It&apos;s worth remembering that most other probiotic strains don&apos;t usually make it past your stomach acid!&#xA0;</p><p data-changed="false" data-paragraphid="535">The standardised and controlled extract that we use has also been the subject of a number of clinical trials, proving its effectiveness. This strain offers benefits far beyond those of Lactobacilli and Bifidobacteria, especially as regards anti-inflammation.

Why don't you use live strains of bacteria in the PREBIOTIC+PROBIOTIC?

Rather than using a live strain, we use probiotic spores, which lie dormant until they reach your small intestine. This means that our formulas are much more resilient than traditional products. Whilst we don’t recommend adding any boiling liquids, o
