There are three species: Bacillus coagulans (BC-705) or Lactobacillus sporogenes, Lactobacillus plantarum (LP-29), and Lactobacillus salivarius (LS-30). These three probiotics are present at a total viable plate count of 15 billion CFU/capsule guaranteed through expiration (TruFlora® is formulated > 24 billion CFU/capsule). These probiotics colonize intestinal contents (food in small intestine, waste in colon) including niches and crevices where intestinal motility is slow. All three possess strong lactic acid-producing ACTIVITY. Each lot of TruFlora® is tested for activity and the results are available here.
