Bacillus clausii has 3 resistance modes
When it comes to gut health, there are few greater allies than Bacillus clausii. Once these abundant bacteria colonise the intestine, existing imbalance is far less likely to affect your daily life through symptoms such as abdominal pain, occasional diarrhea, constipation, and more.
Antibiotic resistance
Antibiotics are designed to either kill or inhibit the growth of most forms of bacteria. Bacillus clausii bacteria is resistant to this process and can be used together with antibiotics as it is less likely to be weakened or wiped out. 2
Gastro-bile resistance
Many forms of bacteria die when they meet with the acidic contents of the stomach, particularly bile. Bacillus clausii is resistant to this environment, passing through alive in order to colonise the intestine. 3
Thermo resistance
Products containing Bacillus clausii are convenient to carry as they do not require refrigeration. 2
