Vegan Probiotc with FOS PrebioticsOur gut—filled with trillions of bacteria—is probably the least paid-attention-to organ in our body, yet it is one of the most important for good health. Bacteria line our intestines to help digest our food.Stability at Room TemperatureWhen it comes to probiotic products one of the major challenges is that many bacteria strains are very sensitive to heat and some even have to be refrigerated to preserve the bacterial integrity and quantity. The special Bacillus Coagulans strain used in our product does not have to be refrigerated and is very stable at room temperature.High Survival Rate In AcidityNot all strains of Bacillus coagulans are considered valuable because only some of them are able to survive through the acidity of the stomach at high levels, survive in bile salts and, grow and form colonies in the intestines.Not Grown On DairyOur probiotic strain is grown on non-animal, non-dairy growth medium making it truly vegan.Supplemented With Prebiotics100 mg of Fructooligosaccharides (FOS) are added to each capsule as prebiotics.FOS is one of the most well-known prebiotics. They are found in artichokes, leeks, garlic, onion, wheat and chicory root. But because it is sometimes difficult to get adequate FOS, and many people want more FOS in their gut, supplements are now made available.FOS is a carbohydrate prebiotic.You cannot digest or absorb FOS, so it passes through your digestive tract to the large intestine where they act as a food source for probioticsFOS has been shown to stimulate certain types of the good bacteria more than others.DEVA Vegan Probiotic with FOS Prebiotics is 100% vegan, vegetarian and is registered with the Vegan Society, the non-profit organization that actually invented the word "vegan".
