Description
Evidence Tier · Randomized Controlled Trials
Four clinically studied strains, La-14, Bl-04, Lp-115 and Lpc-37, at 40 billion CFU with fructooligosaccharide.
What It Does
Supports digestive health and normal immune function.*
How It Works
These strains survive gastric transit and interact with gut-associated immune cells. FOS is a prebiotic fiber that feeds Bifidobacteria.
Why This Form
Named strains rather than species only, so the formula can be matched to the human trials that used them.
Clinical Evidence
A double-blind, randomized, controlled trial tested seven probiotic strains, including Bl-04 and La-14, on immune responses to vaccination in healthy adults.¹ Probiotic definitions and evidence standards follow the international consensus.²
What The Evidence Does Not Show
Strain amounts within the blend are not individually disclosed. Immune trial outcomes were antibody responses, a biomarker.
