DESCRIPTION
Most probiotics are lactobacillus and bifidobacterium strains, which are fragile: stomach acid destroys a good share of them before they arrive anywhere useful. Spore-based probiotics work differently. Bacillus species form a protective endospore that survives the journey intact, which is the whole argument for this category. Gutsi use four strains at 3 billion CFU per capsule: Bacillus indicus HU36, Bacillus clausii SC-109, Bacillus subtilis HU58 and Bacillus coagulans SC-208. One capsule daily with food. It needs no refrigeration, which spore-based formulas rarely do, so it travels and stores easily. Thirty vege capsules, allergen friendly and vegan. Worth giving it a couple of months rather than judging it in a fortnight.
