In order for probiotics to be effective, they must survive the challenges of manufacturing, shelf life and gastric acidity. The simple solution to these challenges is GanedenBC³⁰ (Bacillus coagulans GBI-30, 6086).

The Limitations of Conventional Strains of Probiotics

The primary purpose for the use of probiotic bacteria is for the strain to effectively colonize the small and large intestines. However, there are a number of factors that influence effective colonization and many of these factors are related to the manufacturing process.

• The process of manufacturing probiotic bacteria is a complex endeavor. The protocol design and the preservation method that is utilized to ensure viability before the bacteria is delivered to the formulator/packager require intelligent design.
• Most manufacturers only guarantee the number of bacteria in the product at the time of manufacture. As a result, by the time the dried bacteria has reached the formulator, there has already has been a substantial drop–off in the number of probiotic cells per gram. Formulation using high shear mixing, high compression, preservatives, and heat also takes a toll on the number of viable bacteria found in the final product. Before the product has left the formulator to be delivered to the retailer, the number of viable probiotic cells has been considerably depleted.
• Most probiotic bacteria lack effective stability. Stability is the step in the manufacturing or fermentation of the organism that helps to ensure adequate shelf life. Some probiotic manufacturers use special additives to promote some measure of stability and others rely on refrigeration to accomplish this objective. But the harsh reality is that very few of the probiotic products on the market today have any real measure of stability.

GanedenBC³⁰ has been able to overcome manufacturing limitations, allowing the full probiotic benefit to be actualized.

GanedenBC³⁰ Has Been:

• Proven efficacious in numerous applications.
• Proven to be an extremely hardy organism that is able to withstand harsh manufacturing regimes including high compression tableting, coating, high shear blending and excessive heating.
• Proven to remain viable throughout the shelf-life of the product without substantial density drop-off.
• Proven stable without requiring refrigeration.
• Proven to be resistant to gastric acid and bile.
• Proven to produces the preferred L+ optical isomer of Lactic Acid.
• Proven to have a well-established safety record. Has never been implicated in any infectious occurrence over a 100 year history of use.

GanedenBC³⁰ Is the PERFECT probiotic for use in:

• Vitamin and mineral formulations
• Specialty dietary supplements
• Sports and performance products
