What Is Bacillus Subtilis?
Bacillus Subtilis is a spore-forming probiotic strain known for its resilience and ability to survive harsh conditions, including stomach acid. This allows it to reach the intestines intact, where it germinates and supports a healthy gut microbiome. Unlike many probiotics that require refrigeration, Bacillus Subtilis spores remain stable at room temperature, making them convenient for daily use. Vitamatic's pure powder delivers 100 billion CFU per serving in a simple, unflavoured form.
