FloraSport 20B®: A Probiotic Blend for Athletes and Gut Health
Thorne’s FloraSport 20B® is a unique probiotic supplement specifically designed to support the needs of active individuals and athletes. This potent blend provides 20 billion active cultures from four clinically-researched, shelf-stable strains. These strains were selected for their ability to promote a healthy gut microbiome, which is foundational to both digestive wellness and robust immune function. As an NSF Certified for Sport® product, FloraSport 20B® is the trusted choice for athletes who need to ensure their gut health is supporting, not hindering, their performance.
How It Works: Resilient Strains for a Strong Gut
This formula works by delivering a powerful dose of diverse, beneficial bacteria that can survive stomach acid and colonize the intestines.
Support for GI and Immune Function
FloraSport 20B® features a combination of Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium strains, along with the highly resilient spore-forming probiotic, Bacillus subtilis (as DE111®). This diverse blend helps to maintain a healthy balance of gut flora, which aids in digestion and nutrient absorption. Furthermore, it supports the gut’s role as a primary immune barrier, which is especially important for athletes who put their bodies under intense physical stress.
Clinically Researched for Active Individuals
The specific strains in this formula, like Bifidobacterium lactis (HN019), have been studied for their positive effects on the immune response in healthy, active adults. The delayed-release capsule technology ensures the probiotics are delivered to the lower GI tract for optimal efficacy. Because it’s shelf-stable, it is also a convenient option for travel to competitions and training camps.
