The Research

This product and its specific combination of bacteria has not been studied clinically. To our knowledge, only two strains in this product have been studied in humans.

Bacillus coagulans MTCC5856 (LactoSpore) is a probiotic which has been shown to potentially help with symptoms of bloating and gas in randomized, controlled trials at a dose of 2 billion CFU per day. However, the dose in this product is lower (1 billion CFU per day).

A randomized, controlled trial in 100 participants showed that Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus–LRa05 may be able to colonise the gut in healthy adults, but no other benefits were observed, and the strain was administered at a dose of 10 billion CFU, which is approximately 10 x higher than the in the product (1.3 Billion CFU).

To our knowledge, none of the other strains in this product have been studied in human clinical trials.

The dose of inulin in this product (100mg) is likely too low to have any prebiotic effects when compared to clinical trials.
