Why Take Probiotics - A Patient's Understanding

Why Support Digestive & Immune Function with Probiotics?


What Are Probiotics?


Our ancestors had a diet brimming with nutrients and beneficial species of live bacteria because they lived off the land. These species of live bacteria evolved into an essential component of our digestive system known as probiotics. Probiotics regulate the digestive system, improve immune function and serve as the first line of defense against infections.

What if I Don’t Take Probiotics?


Digestive health is paramount to our overall health. An unhealthy digestive system results in an over-growth of bad bacteria and yeast. Food cannot be broken down properly, essential nutrients are not absorbed and the immune system is compromised leaving us fatigued and rundown. Over-growth of bad bacteria leads to a higher risk of infections, allergies, and inflammation, which can lead to symptoms of constipation, diarrhea, gas, bloating, acid reflux disease, eczema and often weight gain.

What Kind of Probiotic Should I Take?


Not all probiotics are created equal. For a probiotic to perform its necessary function, it must naturally survive the stomach’s harsh environment and arrive to the intestines alive. A true probiotic, designed by nature, is a species found in our environment, as well as in our digestive system. Over 95% of probiotic products in the marketplace today do not meet these criteria. To date, the most researched and widely used true probiotic strains are from the bacillus species. MegaSporeBiotic® contains strains that have been proven to impede the growth of unwanted bacteria and yeast, while strengthening the immune response and producing essential nutrients at the site of absorption.  MegaSporeBiotic® is the first probiotic and antioxidant combination sold exclusively through health practitioners.

Probiotics for Small Intestine Bacterial Overgrowth

Did you know the strains of bacteria used in MegaSporeBiotic have shown to be clinically effective for small intestine bacterial overgrowth (SIBO)?

What is SIBO?

"The small bowel, also known as the small intestine, is part of the digestive system that connects the stomach with the large bowel or colon. The main purpose of the small intestine is to digest and absorb food into the body. The small bowel is divided into three parts:  the duodenum (which food from the stomach empties into), the jejunum and the ileum (which empties undigested food into the large intestine or colon).

 The entire gastrointestinal tract, including the small intestine, normally contains bacteria. The number of bacteria is greatest in the colon but much lower in the small intestine. Also, the types of bacteria within the small intestine are different to the types of bacteria within the colon. Small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO) refers to a condition in which abnormally large numbers of bacteria are present in the small intestine, while the types of bacteria found in the small intestine are more like the bacteria found in the colon.

Small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO) is also known as small bowel bacterial overgrowth syndrome (SBBOS)"[1]. 

Check out the following publication on utilizing Bacillus Clausii as treatment for SIBO.

Bacteriotherapy as Nature Intended: Discover the Essential Nutrient that can Transform Your Patient’s Health

We all know that modern, processed foods are stripped of most of their nutritive value. An essential, missing nutrient, which unfortunately receives the least attention, is beneficial bacteria, commonly known as probiotics. With more and more patients seeking medical attention for digestive and immune system challenges, and a market flooded with probiotic products that make undeliverable promises, it’s time you learned about the clinically-proven results patients around the nation are experiencing with MegaSporeBiotic—bacteriotheraphy as nature intended.

To understand what makes MegaSporeBiotic the 21st century answer to your patients’ modern-day health challenges, it’s important to remember that our ancestors ate a probiotic-rich diet consisting of locally-grown foods and liquids brimming with mega-doses of environmental bacteria. Most of those bacteria died during transit through the body’s harsh gastric system; but some did not. The strains that survived later co-evolved to withstand both the outside environment, as well as passage through the body’s gastric system, where they ended up thriving in the intestines. These bacteria became nature’s first, “true probiotics." Equipped with the ability to live and reproduce in two very different environs (outside the body and inside the body), these strains were said to have a “biphasic life cycle.”

Today, the most well-known, well-studied, and widely-used biphasic probiotics are from the bacillus species, particularly bacillus subtilis, bacillus clausii, bacillus licheniformis and bacillus coagulans. In addition, a recently discovered and developed strain is bacillus indicus. MegaSporeBiotic is the first product on the market that combines all five of these biphasic strains in clinically-relevant doses, with clinically-proven results.

Studies of glacial ice-cores have found the presence of these bacillus species all over the world, dating back as far as 20-thousand years ago. Over that time period, these bacillus species have retained over 90% genetic homology to the strains used today in MegaSporeBiotic. This means that nature's "True Probiotics" have co-evolved with the the human species to be essential, commensal organisms over at least 20,000 years'
MegaSporeBiotic is the evolutionary bridge between that ancestral heritage and our nation’s modern-day, digestive and immune health crisis, providing some uniquely critical functions:

·   Development of the Gut Associated Lymphoid Tissue (GALT) – besides immune stimulation, bacillus subtilis is believed to be partly responsible for the development of the GALT itself. The GALT makes up 70 percent of the immune system.

·   Stimulation and immune tutoring via the Peyer’s Patches in the upper GI. This is critical to pattern recognition and thus autoimmune and allergenic conditions.

·   Competitive exclusion of bacterial and fungal pathogens. The bacillus species are regulators of the GI microbiota and can actually support the growth of your good bacteria while eliminating the bad.

·   Digestion of starch and non-starch polysaccharides to create healthful short-chain fatty acids (such as acetate, propionate, and butyrate) which have profound implications on risks of gastrointestinal disorders, cancer, and cardiovascular disease.

·   Microbiota balance for SIBO – bacillus clausii is actually used as a prescription treatment for SIBO in over 14 countries. You have it in MegaSporeBiotic.

·   Production of digestive enzymes and vitamins in the digestive tract.

·   Production of the most bioavailable carotenoids – bacillus indicus HU36 is patented for the biological delivery of carotenoids. Once colonized, this strain produces physiologically significant amounts of beta-carotene, alpha-carotene, lutein, lycopene, astaxanthin, zeaxanthin, etc. right at the site of absorption.

·   Detox – these strains neutralize several food borne toxins such as Zearalenone (ZEA) and vomitoxin... and much more!

Based on what we’ve learned, we know that over the course of 20-thousand years of co-evolution, the human body has come to depend on these highly specialized bacteria species as essential nutrients for healthy living. Without them, people experience fatigue, malaise, immune disorders, skin disorders, higher levels of toxicity, dysbiosis, chronic inflammation, and more.

Welcome to all things MegaSporeBiotic

Welcome to Our Blog!


As we all know from the Human Microbiome Project, the vast amount of recent research on microorganisms in the gastrointestinal tract has created great interest in their connections with overall health. The diversity of these microorganisms create a foundation that directly affect GI health, allergies, autoimmune disease, body weight, energy, and overall health. The survivability of most probiotics available today fail to provide the optimal therapy that we health practitioners require for our patients. Physicians Exclusive would like to introduce you to MegaSporeBiotic, which has provided remarkable support for those patients experiencing a wide range of gastrointestinal, weight, immune and autoimmune issues.


MegaSporeBiotic is a pharmaceutical grade, all-spore formula of five (5) tested and validated strains of Bacillus. Unlike other probiotics, MegaSporeBiotic is remarkable due to its delivery to the site of colonization, proving 100% survivability through the gastric environment. In addition, with the microbiota directly producing carotenes, quinols, B vitamins, and Vitamin K2 directly within the gastrointestinal tract, maximum absorbability is obtained.

Stay tuned to our blog for more updates!

Sincerely, 


The Physicians Exclusive Team
