- About the Brand
CoreBiotic® combines three fully sequenced and registered spore-based probiotics along with VitaFiber® prebiotic to support a healthy microbiome. Each strain was specifically chosen for its mechanisms of action, backed by supporting research.
Key Features
- Vegan, Dairy, Gluten & GMO-Free
- 11 billion CFU per dose
- No refrigeration required
Spore-based probiotics are derived from the soil and are sometimes referred to as soil-based organisms, or SBO’s. Traditionally when people consumed minimally processed products from the ground, they inadvertently ingested these soil-based probiotics. These SBO’s were crucial for maintaining a normal gut microbiome. Due to modern farming techniques, including over-processing and the use of pesticides and herbicides, people do not naturally consume these beneficial SBO bacteria as they traditionally have.
- Advanced Probiotic Prebiotic Synergy - Three fully sequenced and registered spore-based probiotics along with VitaFiber prebiotic to support a healthy microbiome and overall gut health.*
- Genomic Sequenced & Researched Strains - Each spore probiotic strain was specifically chosen for its mechanisms of action. Bacillus Coagulans (SNZ1969), Lactospore Bacillus coagulans (MTCC 5856), Bacillus Subtilis (DE111).
- 11 Billion CFU Per Serving - As a daily probiotic, take take 2 capsules once daily or as directed by your healthcare professional.
- No Refrigeration Needed - Unlike many probiotic supplements, CoreBiotic contains all spore-forming probiotic strains, which are very hardy and heat resistant. This also helps them survive the harsh journey through the GI tract to support digestive health.*
- Non-GMO Vegan Probiotic Formula - Manufactured without milk, eggs, fish, crustacean shellfish, peanuts, wheat, soy and gluten. Produced in a facility that may process other ingredients containing these allergens. Researched Nutritionals also offers a CoreBiotic Sensitive formula, for those looking for a probiotic supplement without fiber or do not want to take prebiotics and probiotics together.
Benefits of spore-based probiotics
Spore forming strains have several advantages over their live strain counterparts. Most notably, their ability to form a protective spore. This spore allows them to withstand much harsher environments such as those present in the stomach, allowing them to reach the intestines where their benefits can be fully realized. This also means they do not require refrigeration. Double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trials have established the safety of SBO’s for humans, and efficacy has been demonstrated in dozens of peer-reviewed published studies.
Once in the intestines, SBO’s leave the spore form and act the same as any probiotic. Competitive inhibition helps the beneficial probiotic bacteria proliferate and crowd out the harmful bacteria. Each strain in CoreBiotic® is identified by genomic sequencing for specificity so that you know you are getting the same product every time. Only strain-specific probiotics have undergone rigorous genomic studies, guaranteeing accurate strain specificity, potency, and safety.
