Bacillus Coagulans 60' - Vitamatic

Bacillus coagulans (B. coagulans) is a type of probiotic ("good" bacteria). It isn't naturally found in the body, but it produces lactic acid in the gut.

B. coagulans is now known as Weizmannia coagulans. However, most products continue to use the name Bacillus. Also, some products containing B. coagulans are marketed as Lactobacillus sporogenes. Although both lactobacillus and B. coagulans produce a compound called lactic acid, unlike lactobacillus, B. coagulans forms spores. Spores are important for telling B. coagulans apart from other lactic acid bacteria.

People take B. coagulans for constipation and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). It is also used for diarrhea, gas, indigestion, and many other conditions.
