2. THE SOIL IS RICH
WITH MILLIONS OF
BACTERIA

3. • Select spore-forming bacteria found in soil
• Heat-stable & Survive passage through stomach acid
• Colonize in the gut
• Provide gut and immune benefits
• Form spores and release in feces in 7-21 days
Bacillus Probiotics

4. • Human interaction and co-evolution with soil since beginning of time
(food, air, outdoor work and play)
• Verified strains used in Bacillus probiotics like Megasporebiotic do not
produce toxins (Other strains have pathogenic potential)
• Should be seen as normal gut inhabitants; soil is just the source of
entry.
• Farmers who work outdoors have lower rates of autoimmune/allergic
disease
Soil-Based Probiotics

5. BACILLUS SPORES VS. OTHER PROBIOTICS
Bacillus Spores
1.Access gut via routine exposure with dirt
2.Survive stomach acid when taken orally
3.Readily germinate in intestines
4.Colonize for 7-21 days before excreted back
to soil
Other Probiotics
1.Access gut via vaginal birth and
breastfeeding & maintained by dietary
prebiotics (diverse vegetable fibers)
2.Killed by stomach acid when taken orally
(unless very high dose per strain)
3.Germination requires binding to healthy
mucosal lining
4.Colonize indefinitely if: a.) survive stomach
acid b.) healthy mucosal lining c.) consistent
fuel (prebiotics) d.) not killed by antibiotics

6. GUT and
IMMUNE HEALTH
Crowd out pathogens
Support Gut-Associated Lymphoid Tissue
(GALT)
Stimulate Key Immune Cells
Improve Outcomes:
 Allergy and Infection
 Small Intestinal Bowel Overgrowth (SIBO)
 Abdominal pain, Bloating and Diarrhea
 Gut Dysbiosis & IBS

7. HEART HEALTH
and
ANTI-AGING
Produce antioxidants such as lycopene
Antioxidant Protection:
Cardiovascular disease
Inflammation
Cancer
Aging
Natto: Soybeans fermented with B. subtilis
produce Nattokinase
(helps with blood clotting and cardiovascular
risks)
Produce B-vitamins, Vitamin K and more
