Benefits
Digestive regularity
In clinical research, Bacillus subtilis DE111 supported a more normal, regular bowel pattern in healthy people.
Gut microbiome balance
The spores germinate in the intestine and support a healthier balance of gut bacteria.
Immune support
Research on DE111 observed favorable shifts in immune-cell activity, reflecting the gut-immune connection.
Mechanism of action
Spore survival and germination
As spores, DE111 survives stomach acid and heat, then germinates into active bacteria in the small intestine within hours of being swallowed.
Microbiome and gut-barrier support
DE111 supports a balanced microbiome and the gut environment, which underpins both digestion and immune function.
Clinical trials

Healthy adults.
DE111 supported digestive regularity and favorable immune-cell measures versus placebo.
