Lamberts® Biome Balance gummies provide 1 billion live Bacillus Coagulans strains per gummy, combined with prebiotic fructo-oligosaccharides (FOS) from chicory root fiber. The ability of Bacillus coagulans to form spores allows it to survive in adverse conditions, such as high temperatures and stomach acidity. This resilience ensures that the bacteria reach the intestine alive, where they can exert their beneficial effects.
Fructo-oligosaccharides (FOS) are a natural form of soluble carbohydrates found in many vegetables, such as endives and onions. When taken orally, they are only partially absorbed, as most of them are used as a nutritional substrate for the growth of the normal intestinal bacterial flora (mainly the genera Bifidobacteria and Lactobacillus).
