Probiotics are living organisms (bacteria) that live symbiotically with you in your gut and overall have a positive effect on your body. In theory, the more you get in a supplement, the better it has to be, right?

Wrong. There are many probiotic brands out there that claim high quantities (CFUs) of probiotics, but unfortunately, these probiotics live very short lives. In fact, most probiotics die before ever arriving in your mailbox. Even if you do manage to take live probiotics in your capsule, the extremely acidic environment of your stomach will likely destroy them.

Spore probiotics are different. They have a protective endospore that acts as a shell that provides protection for the bacteria through processing, packaging, and your stomach acid, to deliver more bacteria to your gut, where they are most needed.*
