Probiotics Your Body
Actually Understands.
We source human native strains with incredible superpowers. Because your body interacts best with the microbes it already knows.
Biological Reality: Residents vs. Transients
Most probiotics are 'transient tourists'—foreign microbes that pass through your system without ever becoming part of your biology. Human-native strains are residents: the foundational microbes designed to stay.
The Foreign Tourist
Derived from soil, dairy, or yeast. These organisms are biological outsiders that lack the genetic keys to colonize.
- Transient Immune Signaling
- Flushes out in 2-4 days
- Lacks Native Compatibility
- No Long-term Persistence
The Native Resident
Isolated from healthy human biology. These are the ancestral strains your ecosystem evolved to host for life.
- Promotes Microbiome Balance
- Adheres & Persists
- High Metabolic Compatibility
- Genetically Sequence-Verified
The Keystone Human Residents
Microbiome restoration requires specific, high-purity isolates. We focus on the ancestral residents and the fuels they require to flourish.

Real Human Results
Evolution Did The R&D.
For thousands of years, the human body has selected specific microbial partners to perform critical functions. We simply reintroduce the winners of that evolutionary process.
Precise Cellular Docking
Your gut lining is covered in specific receptors. Because our strains co-evolved with humans, they possess the exact surface proteins needed to 'dock' with these receptors—triggering benefits foreign strains cannot.
Native Biological Signaling
Bacteria communicate via chemical signals. Human strains speak your body's native language, delivering clear instructions to your metabolic pathways rather than the vague signals of environmental strains.
Immune Recognition
Foreign bacteria trigger a defensive alert state. Human residents carry 'self' markers that tell the immune system, 'I belong here,' allowing them to work immediately without triggering inflammation.
The Human Advantage
Not all microbes are created equal. New research reveals that human-resident strains are the biological gold standard—highly adapted to thrive in your gut where others fail. We formulate exclusively with these 'native' strains because they are proven to colonize better, last longer, and deliver the most profound, full-spectrum benefits to your health.
Bifidobacterium adolescentis
Systemic Healthspan & Longevity
Known as the 'Centenarian Strain' because it typically vanishes with age, recent research links B. adolescentis restoration to broad systemic benefits. These include increasing host catalase (antioxidant) activity, improving bone density, supporting muscle NAD+ metabolism (sarcopenia defense), regulating blood sugar, and modulating the gut-brain axis for improved sleep and stress resilience.

The Alligator Paradox: Why "Tough" Microbes Fail in the Human Gut
Understanding Human Strains
My gut health test showed I have low abundance of this strain. Will this help?
Yes. Comprehensive stool tests (such as Taxonomy, GI Map, Tiny Health, Viome, Thorne, Zoe, etc.) often reveal "microbial dysbiosis," where keystone species like Bifidobacterium adolescentis or Bifidobacterium longum are missing or critically low. Our Single Strain approach is designed specifically for this use case: it provides a high-potency, targeted inoculation to help re-establish these specific populations.
Why choose a single strain over a multi-strain blend?
Most probiotic blends use a "shotgun" approach, combining many weak strains that fight for resources. By focusing on a single, high-potency Human Strain, we eliminate inter-species competition and allow the bacteria to colonize more effectively, delivering a therapeutic dose exactly where your gut needs it.
What is a 'Human Strain' probiotic?
A Human Strain is a bacteria that is native to the human gut, meaning it has evolved alongside us. Unlike soil-based organisms or bovine strains often found in generic probiotics (which pass through transiently), Human Strains like Bifidobacterium adolescentis are capable of adhering to the gut lining and colonizing long-term.
When is the best time to take this?
We recommend taking one capsule 30 minutes before your first meal of the day, or on an empty stomach before bed. This reduces exposure to stomach acid and bile, ensuring the highest survival rate of the bacteria as they travel to your lower intestine.
Does this product need refrigeration?
While our freeze-drying technology ensures shelf stability during shipping and short-term storage, we strongly recommend keeping your bottle in the refrigerator upon arrival. This preserves the maximum CFU count and potency through the expiration date.
I’m already taking a probiotic. Why do I need this?
Think of your probiotic as the seed and the prebiotic as the fertilizer. Without fertilizer, the seed struggles to survive. Adding this specific food source helps your Human Strains actually colonize and multiply, turning a daily capsule into a self-sustaining ecosystem.
Most prebiotics cause bloating. How is this one different?
Standard prebiotics often ferment too fast, causing painful gas. We use quality ingredients, which ferment slowly and gently across your entire digestion. This gives you all the growth benefits for your good bacteria without the bloating or discomfort of typical fiber.
How is Complete Prebiotic different from a standard fiber supplement?
Standard fiber just helps digestion. This is a Metabolic Complex. It combines gentle fiber with cellular energy boosters (-Lipoic Acid & B-Vitamins). This means it doesn't just help you "go"—it physically energizes your gut cells to help them repair the lining and block toxins.
Will I experience any side effects?
When introducing a potent Human Strain, some individuals may experience mild bloating or gas for the first few days. This is often a sign that the bacteria are active and restructuring your microbiome. If discomfort persists, try taking the capsule every other day until your system adjusts.
Can I take this while on antibiotics?
Yes, but timing is crucial. Antibiotics kill both good and bad bacteria. To protect your probiotic investment, please take this product at least 2–3 hours away from your antibiotic dose. Continuing use after your antibiotic course finishes is highly recommended to help restore lost diversity.
Should I take this with a prebiotic?
Yes. Human Strains like Bifidobacterium thrive when fed specific fibers. Combining this probiotic with a high-quality prebiotic (such as HMOs, GOS, or resistant starch) creates a "synbiotic" effect, significantly increasing the chances of successful colonization and growth in the gut.
Is this safe for histamine intolerance or MCAS?
Our specific strains of Bifidobacterium are generally considered low-histamine producing and safe for those with histamine sensitivity. Unlike certain Lactobacillus strains which can increase histamine load, Bifido strains often help degrade histamine or remain neutral, making them a safer choice for sensitive individuals.
How long until I see results?
Microbiome modulation is a biological process, not a quick fix. While some users feel digestive relief within days, true colonization and ecosystem shifts typically occur over 4 to 12 weeks of consistent use. We recommend a 3-month protocol for optimal results.
How do delivery formats compare (Capsules vs. Powders/Liquids)?
Format dictates efficacy. The industry is segmented into Capsules (34%), Powder (26%), Liquid (22%), and Tablets (18%).
We chose Capsules (the market leader) specifically for their stability, accurate dosing, and convenience. While powders are popular in infant formulas and liquids are used in specific clinical pediatric settings, capsules offer the best protection for ensuring high-potency human strains survive digestion and colonize effectively.e.
