Bacillus coagulans
Bacillus coagulans (formerly Lactobacillus Sporogenes) is a unique, stable probiotic organism that promotes gastrointestinal health and promotes a healthy gut flora. The human intestinal tract contains trillions of bacteria that, in a healthy person, coexist in a beneficial, symbiotic relationship. Healthy bacteria help digest food, produce vitamins, regulate the metabolism, and control a normal immune response. Probiotic bacteria promote a healthy intestinal environment by producing lactic acid and by secreting fatty acids that are helpful to the growth of other beneficial microorganisms. Bacillus coagulans is a lactic acid-producing bacteria that represents a breakthrough in probiotic supplementation. This beneficial bacteria is dormant in the bottle, then reverts to a growing bacteria in the intestines. Because of this, it resists being killed by stomach acid; in contrast, many Lactobacillus probiotics lose most or all of their potency before use and do not survive their trip through the stomach. No refrigeration or special handling is required for this stable, healthy bacteria which can survive stomach acidity. People take Bacillus coagulans for diarrhea, including infectious types such as rotaviral diarrhea in children; traveler's diarrhea; and diarrhea caused by antibiotics. Bacillus coagulans is also used for general digestion problems, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), inflammatory bowel disease (IBD, Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis), a bowel disorder called Clostridium difficilecolitis, excessive growth of “bad” bacteria in short bowel syndrome, and infection due to the ulcer-causing bacterium Helicobacter pylori.

D- 1000
It is essential to maintain healthy vitamin D levels throughout all stages of life, from fetal development to old age.* Vitamin D helps protect a number of important functions in the body.* The current recommended daily vitamin D intake of 400 IUs is based on the minimum allowance to protect against bone disease. However, an upward revision of the FDA's guideline is now under consideration in light of new research, especially pertaining to immune function. Cutting-edge research suggests serum vitamin D levels should be in the range of 32-80 ng/mL 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D). Although direct sunlight exposure is a good source of vitamin D, many people do not get enough sun due to season change, latitude, or lifestyle. Therefore, vitamin D supplementation can be of great benefit in these cases.* Vitamin D deficiency is quite common, particularly among the elderly Thorne Research supplements, promise to give you the purest supplements humanly possible. Therefore, they do not purchase premixed dilutions of any "micro-dose" vitamins. Instead, they purchase pure, undiluted vitamins and create their own dilutions when it is necessary to do so, using pure, hypoallergenic powders, such as magnesium citrate or plant cellulose. The resultant premixture is then added to the dietary supplement being made, ensuring the proper amount of each pure nutrient is contained in each capsule. A pure, dry vitamin D containing 1000 IU per capsule. Vitamin D is important for immune function and bone density. Vitamin D aids in the prevention of osteoporosis and hypocalcemia, and used as an immune booster and thyroid regulator. Supports brain and healthy nervous system function, reducing risk of cardiovascular disease and strengthens the immune system. Used in preventative medicine, studies have shown that Vitamin D offers some protection from colon, breast and prostate cancer. Vitamin D is used for the normal growth and development of healthy bones, joints, muscles and teeth and in the prevention and treatment of osteoperosis.

L Glutamine
L-glutamine (commonly referred to as glutamine) is the most prevalent amino acid in the bloodstream. It is found in high concentration in skeletal muscle and lung, liver, brain, and gastrointestinal tissues. Skeletal muscle contains the greatest intracellular concentration of glutamine, comprising up to 60 percent of total body glutamine stores, and muscle is the primary storage depot and exporter of glutamine to other tissues. However, the gastrointestinal tract is the greatest user of glutamine in the body because glutamine provides the primary fuel for the nutrient-absorbing cells that line the walls of the small intestine. Various stressors – such as trauma, infection, malnutrition, chemotherapy, and others – can impact the normal function of the enterocytes of the small intestine by adversely affecting how substances are absorbed. For example, when gut permeability is impaired it can allow large protein molecules to diffuse across the intestine – that would otherwise not – and enter the bloodstream (resulting in a condition called leaky gut syndrome). The body can identify these large protein molecules as foreign and mount an immune reaction against them, which can result in the development of food allergies. In numerous animal studies, in which hyper-permeability of the intestine is experimentally induced, the addition of glutamine improved permeability function as well as the gut's immune function. Under certain circumstances the body's tissues need more glutamine than the amount supplied by diet and internal production. In times of metabolic stress, glutamine is released from the muscles into the bloodstream, where it is transported to the tissues in need but concentration in the skeletal muscles can be affected by various insults, including injury, infection, prolonged stress, malnutrition, and the use of glucocorticoids. In addition, glutamine may provide support of wound healing, immune health, and nutrient support of individuals undergoing chemotherapy and radiation. L Glutamine promotes immune system health, supports a healthy nervous system and is an essential nutrient for wound healing. Glutamine serves as a regulator of acid-base balance and a building block of neurotransmitters in the brain. L-glutamine has several benefits. It can reduce the severity and duration of mouth pain/mucositis caused by chemotherapy, can support the gastro-intestinal tract during chemotherapy, reduce the duration of chemotherapy-induced diarrhea and it can reduce peripheral neuropathy, numbness, pain, tingling.
