Education

Designs for Health ProbioSpore is a unique spore-based probiotic containing Bacillus coagulans (UNIQUE IS-2TM) as a single ingredient.

Originally named Lactobacillus sporogenes, Bacillus coagulans is a transient, gram-positive, lactic acid-producing bacteria that is protected from stomach acid by a protein-based spore coating. Instead of dying off as a result of coming into contact with stomach acid, the spore coating expands, and B. coagulans begins to germinate as it moves out of the stomach and into the duodenum where the environment is more amenable. Germination occurs between 4-6 hours after ingestion, and around 85-93% of the ingested and germinated probiotic ends up in the intestines. Further to this, its preferred growth temperature is between 35-50°C. As a result, B. coagulans displays an excellent stability profile at ambient temperatures

Once germination has taken place, B. coagulans proliferates in the distal parts of the small intestine and is able to produce the isomeric form of lactic acid. The isomeric form is unlikely to give rise to metabolic acidosis.

Being a transient and not a colonising probiotic, B. coagulans does not remain in the intestinal tract for long and begins to be excreted via the faeces around seven days after supplementation ceases. Despite such a short period of time of activity in the bowel, B. coagulans affects the microbial colony in that it helps to regulate beneficial flora and inhibit the proliferation of opportunistic bacteria via the production of “bacteriocin-like substances” and short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs). These compounds support the health of the GI lining and provide direct antagonism to microbial pathogens.
