Lactobacillus sporogenes
Bacillus coagulans, also known as Weizmannia coagulans or Lactobacillus sporogenes, is a spore-forming, lactic acid-producing, Gram-positive bacterium used as a probiotic. Bacillus coagulans has shown benefits for constipation and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). Its spores are stable in stomach acid and reach the small intestine, where they germinate and multiply, with around 85% reaching their destination. The bacterium is excreted via feces, with spores detectable up to 7 days post-administration. Mechanistically, Bacillus coagulans exhibits antibacterial effects through the production of coagulin, lactic acid, and lactosporin, reducing pathogenic bacteria colonization. It also demonstrates antifungal properties and anti-inflammatory effects, potentially reducing the growth of pathogenic bacteria and decreasing the production of lipopolysaccharides. Bacillus coagulans may stimulate immune response, as evidenced by increased CD4+ T cells in adults with HIV-1 infection and modulation of inflammatory cytokines in schoolchildren. These properties categorize Bacillus coagulans as an immunomodulator, immunostimulant, and probiotic, with potential therapeutic applications in promoting digestive health and immune function.

Formula |
- Naturally gentle pure psyllium fiber
Natural psyllium fiber in small capsules
Rich in water-soluble and bulk fiber plus lactobacillus friendly flora
- Andrew Lessman's Fibermucil is all-natural, 100% pure, encapsulated psyllium husk powder from the high-fiber Indian plant plantago ovata. It contains no additives of any kind and provides an unparalleled natural source of both water-soluble fiber and bulk fiber. It comes in small, easy-to-swallow capsules and there are no colors or flavors, unlike most fiber beverages. Dietary fiber provides a myriad of health benefits and is generally considered the most overlooked component in the American diet. In fact, the unique properties of the soluble fiber in this product can help to maintain and support healthy blood cholesterol levels already in the normal range. It is well established in the scientific literature that daily consumption of healthy soluble fiber, such as that found in Fibermucil, is one of the easiest methods of supporting heart health. Plus, the insoluble (bulk) fiber in this natural product helps to "scour" the digestive tract removing undigested food, debris and other by-products. Fiber also speeds gastrointestinal (GI) transit time (the time it takes for food to pass through you) and as a result can help remove digestive by-products sooner and most importantly, naturally helps to support the "regularity" we all seek. Scientific studies consistently demonstrate the long-term health benefits of a high-fiber diet and it is well established that adequate fiber intake is vital for maintaining the optimal functioning of the digestive system. Moreover, when taken with meals, fiber can also provide a natural feeling of fullness to support most weight-loss plans. Fibermucil also includes lactobacillus sporogenes to help maintain a balance of beneficial flora in your intestines, which supports nutrient absorption and the overall health of the GI tract. Andrew Lessman's Fibermucil provides a convenient and easy-to-swallow source of the vital fiber that is so lacking from our diet, yet is so essential for our good health and regularity.
