What is another name for Thorne Bacillus Coagulans?

Does Thorne Bacillus Coagulans survive stomach acid?

Thorne Bacillus Coagulans stays dormant in the bottle, according to Thorne. The brand explains that the bacteria then revert to a growing form in the intestines, which is how it presents the stability of this probiotic.
How does Thorne describe the role of gut bacteria?
Thorne says beneficial gut bacteria help digest food, produce vitamins, regulate metabolism and support a normal immune response. Thorne Bacillus Coagulans is offered as a probiotic that produces lactic acid to support that environment.
How should Thorne Bacillus Coagulans capsules be taken?
Thorne Bacillus Coagulans capsules should be taken following the Thorne label, since this listing does not state a daily amount. Anyone with a weakened immune system or a serious illness should get advice first. Please consult your doctor before use.
