Wellness + Wisdom | Episode 658

Are your probiotics helping you heal your gut or are you just wasting your money?

Tina Anderson | Gut Health: The New Probiotic Strain That Changes EverythingTina Anderson, Co-Founder of Just Thrive, joins Josh Trent on the Wellness + Wisdom Podcast, episode 658, to explain why most probiotics are not real probiotics, how spore-based probiotics heal the gut microbiome, why gut health is essential for your mental health and brain function, and what the healing protocol for the gut consists of.

 

"99.99% of probiotics die by the time they get to the intestines. If a probiotic needs to be refrigerated in order to stay alive, it wouldn't even survive on the store shelf which means it could never survive your body temperature. Spore-based probiotic has this endospore shell around itself which allows it to be a very hardy organism and survive the journey from the mouth through the gastric system into the intestines." - Tina Anderson

Black Friday 2023: Best Wellness + Biohacking DealsThere are hundreds of brands of probiotics on the market, but as you’ve probably already discovered, they are not all equal.

Just Thrive® is the first 100% spore-forming probiotic and antioxidant supplement that arrives 100% alive to your intestines that's available in the retail market.

Just Thrive® contains a patented strain called Bacillus Indicus HU36® – bacillus strains are abundant environmental organisms that are a normal part of the human microflora.

This strain, Bacillus Indicus HU36®, produces antioxidants/ carotenoids (the nutrients that give red peppers and tomatoes their color) in your intestines where they can be best absorbed by the body, making it one of the most absorbable forms of antioxidants on the market. These spores have been successfully used to enhance digestive health for more than 50 years!

Power Quotes From The Show

Most Bacteria Are Good For You

"We have to remember that bacteria is our friend. Less than 1% of bacteria is actually harmful. The overwhelming majority of bacteria is so beneficial, if not critical for our overall health." - Tina Anderson

 

Gut-Brain Connection

"The vagus nerve connects from the brainstem down to our intestines. The brain is sending signals to the gut and the gut is sending signals to the brain. Many neurotransmitters are produced in our gut. 90% of our serotonin is produced in our gut, and GABA and dopamine are produced in our gut as well. So there is a total connection between the gut and the brain and the brain and the gut."  - Tina Anderson

 

Most Probiotics Are Not Real Probiotics

"The overwhelming majority of probiotics on the market are dying by the time they hit the intestines because the stomach acid is killing it. And so we're getting dead bacteria. We could call them metabolic response modifiers but they're not probiotics. They may provide some symptomatic relief but they're not making a true change in the microbiome."  - Tina Anderson
