Terraflora is a professional grade synbiotic formula by Enviromedica.
Like most practitioners, you know that probiotics are an essential part of your patients’ gastrointestinal health. But traditional probiotic supplements come with a problem that sets them apart from every other supplement you recommend:
Probiotics have limited effect if they’re not alive.
The probiotic supplements you provide your patients must remain viable on the shelf and through the harsh acidic environment of the stomach — delivering active, therapeutic levels at the time they reach the lower GI tract.
A Fundamental Solution: Terraflora Broad Spectrum Synbiotic
Soil-based organisms, or spore form probiotics, are the fundamental answer to the probiotic problem. Other probiotics use high-tech, novel, and unproven manufacturing techniques to force weak, sensitive bacteria through the hostile acidic environment of the early GI tract.
Terraflora® contains a probiotic bio-complex of select Bacillus strains (beneficial microflora) naturally adapted to the GI tract, and inherently resistant to stomach acid and heat. The spore-based microbes in Terraflora ® are designed to nurture and support the center of wellness – the human gut.
Finally it’s possible to recommend a probiotic that your patients will use, because they know it will work.
Stronger, innately resilient strains
To ensure potency and viability of fragile lactic-acid bacteria, refrigeration and a short shelf life are required, reducing convenience and patient compliance. But manufacturers’ attempts to resolve this dilemma have increased consumer doubt and confusion.
As we see it, organism viability is not found in micro-encapsulation or patented enteric coatings. What’s needed is a simple solution that works with bacterial strains’ natural adaptive capabilities. The natural seed-like structure encasing the probiotic bacteria in Terraflora® offers that solution.
Unlike conventional Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium probiotics, which require refrigeration and have a short shelf-life, the strains in Terraflora® are a balanced formulation of a new generation of probiotics– they are inherently resilient, heat-stable, and require no refrigeration.
Terraflora Bridges the Lost Connection to our Natural Environment
In much the same way that an infant’s exposure to maternal bacterial cultures during natural birth help the infant to form a healthy, disease-resistant bacterial defense, environmental and soil-based microbes assist in growing and maintaining a healthy makeup of internal flora.
This is the basis of why SBO (soil-based organisms) probiotics like Terraflora® have risen in recognition recently as clinical evidence grows to support its traditionally-derived approach.
Terraflora® includes a sophisticated probiotic bio-complex of specific, commensal bacillus strains. Selected for their unique characteristics, Bacillus are gram-positive bacteria that exist in two forms. Under favorable
conditions the bacteria grow in a vegetative form, but when starved of nutrients they differentiate into a dormant life form known as an “endospore” or simply a “spore”. These spores come alive when introduced to an ideal environment,
like the human gut.
Among brands of SBO probiotics, Terraflora® is different.
Terraflora’s multi-strain bacillus complex:
Ribospore™ (Bacillus pumilus)
- Substantial producer of Riboflavin (vitamin B2), providing 300-500 times more riboflavin than a typical strain.
- Produces bioavailable antioxidant carotenoids
Bacillus megaterium EM144™
- Supports gastrointestinal homeostasis
- Produces bioavailable antioxidant carotenoids
Bacillus clausii
- Supports immune function
- Supports GI homeostasis during antibiotic therapy
Bacillus subtilis
- Produces vitamin K2 and the enzyme Nattokinase
- Supports healthy GALT function
Bacillus coagulans
- Produces L+ optical form of lactic acid
- Supports immune function
Advanced Prebiotic Bio-Complex:
Terraflora® adds purposeful, certified organic prebiotics specifically designed to support healthy intestinal flora, with naturally-occurring food-based polyphenols and polysaccharides, sustainably sourced from wild-harvested seaweeds, mushroom fruiting bodies, and humic acid.
Larch Arabinogalactan
- Increases production of butyrate in the gut; butyrate is the principle fuel for intestinal cells and supports healthy tight junctions in the gut lining
- Enhances beneficial gut flora and increases intestinal anaerobes, particularly Bifidobacterium longum
Bladderwrack and Wakame Extracts
- Rich in marine polyphenols and polysaccharides
- Support healthy inflammation response in the GI tract
- Increases beneficial bacteria and significantly decreases inflammatory response and antigen load of gut microbiota
- Increases the integrity of tight junctions in the gut lining
Nordic Chaga Extract
- Contains a diverse spectrum of polyphenols and polysaccharides
- Shown to support healthy inflammation response in the colon
- Shown to decrease firmicutes-to-bacteriodetes bacterial ratios
Red Reishi Extract
- Contains a diverse spectrum of polyphenols and polysaccharides
- Shown to increase microbiota richness and supports intestinal barrier function
- Supports health of the gut lumen
Humic Acid
- Shown to increase overall concentration of colonic microbiota
Terraflora is an Innovative Approach to Gut Health
Formulated with a combinations of spore form probiotics and advanced, food-based prebiotics designed for robust support of gastrointestinal health. An easier, more reliable way to unite convenience, compliance and efficacy. It’s based on a fundamental fact of probiotic clinical practice:
The most successful probiotic recommendations control for the most important variable: Strain Viability
Yesterday’s probiotic solutions are anything but conducive to patient confidence. Consumers are aware more and more that lactic-acid based probiotics may or may not contain adequate live organisms. Requiring your patients and all members of the supply chain to maintain uninterrupted product refrigeration is no solution.
Enviromedica’s SBO professional broad spectrum probiotic complex puts control back in your hands.
A multi-strain probiotic and prebiotic inherently acid-resistant and shelf-stable without refrigeration, Terraflora® stands in a class above all other probiotic solutions.
