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. Our other supplements contains strains that aren't heat-resistant and therefore are found in capsules or powder format.
