Bacillus Subtilis [HU58] is a spore-forming probiotic that improves gut health, reduces diarrhea, and strengthens the immune system.
Description
Bacillus Subtilis [HU58] is a spore-forming probiotic that increases the number of beneficial bacteria and restores the balance of gut bacteria. It increases Short Chain Fatty Acids (SCFA) levels, which have beneficial effects on the immune system and gut health. It also produces essential digestive enzymes that aid in food digestion.
The HU58 strain can improve symptoms of antibiotic-associated diarrhea (AAD) and help faster resolution of diarrhea and abdominal pain in children. At a dose of 2 billion CFU/day for 8 weeks, it was well tolerated with no serious adverse events reported.
Research shows that Bacillus subtilis HU58 spores can survive the gastric barrier and can be stored at room temperature. It can produce over 12 targeted antibiotics in the intestines, making it particularly effective in balancing intestinal microflora.
