Give your gut a real advantage with Bacillus Coagulans from Swanson Probiotics—the superior, stable, spore-form probiotic that delivers viable nourishment you can depend on for lower GI health and comfort.
In the century since Nobel Laureate Elie Metchnikoff first developed the use of beneficial bacteria to bolster human health, researchers have identified hundreds of probiotic species, but one stands apart from the other in terms of viability and efficacy: Bacillus Coagulans. This extraordinary probiotic was first identified in 1933 and demonstrates unique spore-forming capabilities, which give it some distinct advantages over other probiotic species.
In its spore phase, this bacterium is able to withstand higher temperatures than common probiotics like L. acidophilus, which greatly increases its shelf- life and eliminates the need for refrigeration. Plus, in spore form the organisms are protected from degradation by stomach acids, enabling them to reach the lower GI tract intact—something many others fail to achieve. Once there, they become active lactic acid producing probiotics, helping to maintain a healthy microbial balance for comfortable gastrointestinal function.

This unique characteristic helps protect the probiotic organism and contributes to its stability. Bacillus coagulans is commonly chosen by individuals seeking digestive support from a resilient probiotic strain. - What Is a Spore-Forming Probiotic?
A spore-forming probiotic is a type of beneficial microorganism that naturally forms a protective outer shell, or spore. This protective structure helps the probiotic remain stable under a variety of environmental conditions. Bacillus coagulans is a spore-forming probiotic, which contributes to its durability and makes it a popular choice in probiotic supplements. - What Are CFUs in Bacillus coagulans Supplements?
CFU stands for Colony Forming Units, a measurement used to indicate the number of viable probiotic microorganisms in a supplement. In Bacillus coagulans products, the CFU count represents the amount of beneficial probiotic bacteria provided per serving. CFUs help consumers understand the potency of a probiotic supplement and the quantity of live microorganisms it delivers. - Does Swanson Probiotics Bacillus Coagulans Need Refrigeration?
No. Swanson Probiotics Bacillus Coagulans features a spore-forming probiotic that is naturally more stable than many traditional probiotic strains.
