Bifidobacterium breve is a probiotic that is often studied for its potential benefits in treating inflammatory bowel diseases. It's currently being studied for its potential impacts on anxiety, mood, and cognitive function. B. breve may have a beneficial impact on stool quality and transit time, particularly in children.

Neither an artichoke nor from Jerusalem, the Jerusalem Artichoke is actually sunflower root. This root is a natural prebiotic, high in fiber–stimulating and feeding the Bifidobacteria (the good guys!) in the gut.[1]

Lactobacillus brevis is a probiotic commonly found in sauerkraut, pickles, and your intestines. Research suggests that L. brevis may generate chemicals called bacteriocins, which help the body resist colonization by other, harmful bacteria. L. brevis is also known for its potential to support better oral health.

One of Lactobacillus casei's superpowers is that it's great at helping maintain the strength and integrity of the intestinal wall, even in the presence of inflammatory signaling molecules. This ultimately helps the body maintain a healthy balance of inflammation. L. casei is also acid-resistant, so it survives the acidic stomach and takes up residence in the small intestines, where it benefits you the most!

Naturally found in the intestines, Lactobacillus gasseri is an extremely acid-resistant probiotic that has been researched for its potential to support weight loss and healthy abdominal fat. Because it's acid-resistant, L. gasseri isn't destroyed by the acidic stomach environment and is able to colonize the small instestines where it can have the greatest benefits. Studies also suggest that L. gasseri can support the immune system, specifically by supporting a healthy response to allergens.

Lactobacillus paracasei is a probiotic naturally found in the digestive tract as well as in fermented foods. L. paracasei is excellent at surviving the acidic stomach. We also love L. paracasei because it's bile resistant, meaning it can survive the bile acids found in the small intestines after eating. These features allow L. paracasei to stick around in the digestive system and give you powerful benefits all day long. L. paracasei has been studied for its potential to support a healthy immune system.

Lactobacillus salivarius is a probiotic that's found in the human digestive system. L. salivarius is known for its ability to adhere to the intestinal wall, which helps the probiotic have lasting effects on your immune and digestive health. Fun fact: this probiotic can pass through breast milk to support baby's health as well!

Organic rice hulls keep our probiotic from caking, so the powder is smooth and easy to mix, without having to use synthetic alternatives like silicon dioxide.

Our vegan capsules are made from pullulan, which is a plant-based polysaccharide derived from the Aureobasidium pullulans fungi. Pullulan is biodegradable and made without any other additives or fillers. Compared to animal-based capsules, pullulan resists oxygen very effectively, which means the the powder inside is kept fresher for longer - so you can enjoy all the benefits inside the capsule!
