What do probiotics actually do?

Probiotics play a crucial role in your digestion and metabolism. They help your body break down food, extract and synthesize nutrients, and eliminate waste more efficiently. They also help support your immunity by keeping unwanted microorganisms in check, maintaining a healthy gut barrier, and influencing your immune response.

What does my gut have to do with my immune system?

About 70% of your immune system is located in the digestive tract. The intestinal wall is responsible for allowing nutrients to enter the bloodstream while keeping out toxins and unwanted microorganisms. The good bacteria that line your intestines play a role in mediating this process, and also help crowd out the bad bacteria in your gut.

Don’t we need both good and bad bacteria?

That’s right. Exposure to bad bacteria trains our bodies to develop the right tolerances and antibodies to stay resilient. Good bacteria play a role in triggering and tempering the immune response to these invaders. As long as we have enough good bacteria to compete with the bad bacteria, our microbiome stays in balance. It’s when our good bacteria becomes depleted that the bad bacteria can overgrow and compromise our health.

Aren’t you supposed to refrigerate probiotics?

In previous years, probiotic supplements contained bacteria that were very sensitive to heat and moisture. These products needed to be refrigerated and kept out of humidity to keep the bacteria alive. However, new technology has made it possible to use freeze-dried organisms, which are much more stable. These probiotics do not need refrigeration, as long as they are not exposed to heat above room temperature.

Is it ok to keep these probiotics in the refrigerator?

Refrigeration will not harm your probiotics, as long as you keep the cap on tight to avoid getting moisture in the bottle. Make sure your hands are dry if you’re going to pour several capsules out into your hand and then put some back into the bottle.

Can I open the capsule and mix the probiotic powder with my food?

We do not recommend opening the capsule. This supplement has an enteric-coated capsule which helps protect the probiotics from the corrosive effects of stomach acid. Without that capsule, these probiotics would become much less effective.

How do I store my bottle so that it stays fresh longer?
