What Are The Culprits?
Global Probiotics Challenges…
Less than 4% of label probiotics actually reaches the gut!
1. Minimum viable cells
According to FAO/WHO recommendations, for a probiotics to declare claims of health benefits, it must contain a concentration of 10 6 to 10 7 CFU (Colony Forming Units) of viable probiotic bacteria.
2. Probiotics shelf-life
There is gradual deterioration and loss of bacteria while awaiting customer purchase at the shelf due to oxidation and other stress that impacts on the live bacteria.
3. Tolerance of Stomach Acid (pH=2)
Most probiotics do not survive the harsh acidity in the stomach at pH below 2 (Highly Acidic). Lactobacilli spp. has been shown to only survive between 30 seconds to several minutes under these conditions.
SCO2 Microencapsulation Technology
How does this benefit your gut?
Shelf Stability
You are guaranteed that the label claim (e.g. 10 Billion CFU) is what you are consuming despite being on the shelf for a few months.
Acid Tolerance
Protect the probiotics and make them resistant to the low gastric pH which indiscriminately eliminates all bacteria, good or bad.
Heat Stability
Probiotics are protected from exposure to heat, moisture and elements, that would otherwise destroy them before consumption.
