Bacillus coagulans

Bacillus coagulans is a type of bacteria that belongs to the Bacillus family. It has the unique ability to form spores, which makes it resistant to adverse conditions such as heat and drought. This allows Bacillus coagulans to survive in various environments, including the human digestive system.

Unlike many other probiotic bacteria, Bacillus coagulans is a spore-former. This means that it can protect itself in difficult conditions and only becomes active in a suitable environment. This distinguishes it from non-spore-forming probiotics, which are more sensitive to temperature and acidity.

Bacillus coagulans occurs naturally in a variety of environments, including soil and certain fermented foods. Typical examples are certain yogurts and fermented soy products that may contain Bacillus coagulans.

Yes, Bacillus coagulans is available in supplement form. It was added as an ingredient to our Gut Day formula.
