Lactobacillus Sporogenes (Bacillus coagulans) - An Effective Probiotic
Not every species of Lactobacilli qualifies as an effective probiotic - many do not survive processing, storage and passage
through the digestive system very well. The following characteristics make the bacteria in Geneflora, KiddiFlora, NuImmune,
YeastBuster and Geneflora for Pets, Lactobacillus sporogenes (Bacillus coagulans) the ideal probiotic:
Autointoxication poisonings by bacterial toxins in the intestinal tract may also play host to pathogenic or disease-causing
bacteria. The concept of autointoxication poisoning in the body by intestinal toxins was popular among doctors in the late 19th
and early 20th centuries. An editorial on the dangers of autointoxication, which appeared in the June 3, 1893 issue of The
Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) declared that, "Most likely, a large majority of chronic diseases take their
origin from this cause."
Naturopathy, widely practiced during the early 20th century has always stressed the fundamental importance of bowel
cleansing. With the advent of so-called "scientific medicine," naturopathy slipped into decline, and the concept of
autointoxication was discredited. Over the last 30 years or so, this has changed. Naturopathic medicine has rebounded and
the importance of bowel health is once again recognized. A paper published in The New England Journal of Medicine in 1964,
while opining that autointoxication "was exploited by quacks and faddists," in the early 1900's concedes that, "The concept of
autointoxication must now receive serious consideration."
Dr. Bernard Jensen, in his book Tissue Cleansing Through Bowel Management writes, "Where health and vitality are found, we
invariably find the friendly and beneficial microbes ... To a large extent the flora in the bowel determines the state of health in an
individual." In a healthy bowel the friendly flora makes up the bulk of the bacteria population. The unfriendly, disease-causing,
organisms are in the minority. The good bacteria keep them firmly under control. This healthy microbial balance in the gut is
called "eubiosis."

YeastBuster and Geneflora for Pets, Lactobacillus sporogenes (Bacillus coagulans) the ideal probiotic:
- Naturally encapsulated so it is stable at room temperature and can be stored, unrefrigerated, for long periods of time
without loss of viable organisms. - Tolerates heat, stomach acid and bile, allowing it to successfully travel into the lower bowel.
- Is non-pathogenic (it has only beneficial effects on its host). It has similar characteristics as L. acidophilus: prefers a
mild acid environment, produces lactic acid and digestive enzymes, etc... - Readily multiplies in the gut. In the stomach, the spore coat absorbs moisture and begins to swell. Upon reaching the
small intestine, the bacteria cells germinate and begin to mulitply, doubling in numbers every 30 minutes. - Produces enzymes which help to digest proteins, fats and carbohydrates. These enzymes include lactase - the enzyme
that digests milk sugar. - Creates a favorable environment (mildly acidic) in the gut for other "friendly" bacteria to thrive. This also helps to prevent
the overgrowth of pathogenic organisms. - Produces ONLY L(+) lactic acid - which is completely and efficiently metabolized and assimilated.
