Complements gut bacteria

General digestive

Tastes really good so that I remember to take them each day.

These taste absolutely incredible, almost as good as Percy Pigs minus all the sugar! As a vegetarian it’s rare to find gummies that are gelatin free and have no added sugars. The fact they are so yum and easy to take means I take one every day, before I struggled with capsules and pills always forgetting to take them daily. Since taking them I have more energy and feel healthier. High fives to everyone at Optibac for creating a mega tasty vegan probiotic!

Really fruity taste and apart from the friendly bacteria they contain vit D and zinc so saves me buying any extra tablets. Started taking half a gummie to ease my way on to them. Really really pleased.

Why is this supplement a gummy?

To create a gummy supplement, heat is needed. Most friendly bacteria strains would be destroyed if heat is applied. Bacillus coagulans Unique IS-2, the friendly bacteria strain chosen for these gut health gummies is heat-resistant and therefore ideal to be developed into a delicious gummy (1,2). Our other supplements contains strains that aren't heat-resistant and therefore are found in capsules or powder format.
