Probiotics are actually living micro- organisms that can provide multiple health benefits associated with your intestines, bowel and your immune system.

The term "Biogenics" was chosen for acknowledging its difference from Probiotics and Prebiotics. While Probiotics employ live bacteria cultures and Prebiotics use non-digestible foods such as fiber to stimulate the growth of beneficial bacteria in the digestive system, Biogenics uses bacteria cell wall metabolites (paraprobiotics and Postbiotics) and its active ingredients (Immunobiotics) to do the work of both. This then leads to the concept of, Probiogenics , used in ActiveBiome; incorporating Pre-biotic, Pro-biotic and Biogenics into the one capsule. All three components have been combined to form the Probiogenics® system. This innovative 3 in 1 system achieves more direct, significantly enhanced, and even faster performance in improving the intestinal / immune system.

We suggest that for the first 2 weeks take 2 capsules daily, with food. After that, maintain your gut flora with 1-2 capsules per day, depending on your needs.

Everyone’s body is different and so the time will vary from person to person, but because ActiveBIome is formulated using Biogenics technology you should notice some difference within 10-14 days, and a pronounced difference after 30 days.

There are 5 strains of bacteria in ActiveBiome and while many manufacturers loudly proclaim their products based on 10-12 strains of bacteria or billions per mcg, the most important factor is the uptake of those bacterial strains and only Biogenics technology can guarantee maximum uptake in the shortest space of time. The micro elements of Biogenics technology allows the bacterium to proliferate at a much faster rate than standard Probiotic alone, giving a visible change in less than 14 days.

The answer is a definite yes, with the ingredients in ActiveBiome, and the source of each being ; Bacillus Coagulans (from Green Malt), Indigestible Maltodextrin (from corn starch), Inulin (from chicory root), Heat Sealed Lactobacillus Plantarum (from vinegar rice), Bifidobacterium bifidum (by fermentation),  Bifidobacterium Lactis (by fermentation),  Bifidobacterium Longum (by fermentation), Vitamin C (by chemical synthesis) – so there are no ingredients from animal origin, or from milk or dairy fermentation.

While ActiveBiome doesn’t require refrigeration in principal, if you live in a hot climate or during a hot summer period it is advisable to store ActiveBiome in the fridge after opening, to preserve potency.

Pro-Biotics are considered transient bacteria. In other words when you stop taking them they can leave the biome and may disappear when not consumed regularly. In addition to that, many other factors can affect your gut flora, such as antibiotic consumption as well as other medications. It is best to get into the habit of taking ActiveBiome daily for best results.

The potent and fast acting formula in ActiveBiome, powered by Biogenics technology, is suitable for children 12 years and above, but below 12 years of age we only recommend use under medical supervision.

The majority of probiotic bacteria are transient and do not remain in the gut flora, however ActiveBiome contains Bifidobacterium Longum, which has been shown to persist for up to 6 months, providing an ongoing benefit even if you miss an occasional dose. Click here for clinical study results.

ActiveBiome should not lead to extreme abdominal discomfort. If they do, stop taking them. Probiotics and Biogenics can work in different ways (interacting with your immune system, inhibiting pathogens, delivering enzymes that can help digest milk, etc). They may also influence some of the activities of your resident gut bacteria, and in doing so may impact how your gut feels.
