Spore Wars

How Sporty rides out the stomach acid

  1. Suit up.When times get tough, B. coagulans packs its DNA into a spore: a dry, tough, seed-like coat.
  2. Acid rain.Your stomach runs at roughly pH 1.5 to 3.5, sour enough to fizzle most bacteria. The spore coat shrugs it off.
  3. Hatch!In the calmer small intestine, the spore germinates and Sporty gets back to making lactic acid.
Far-out fact

A spore is a survival suit: a tough, dry coat that lets B. coagulans ride out stomach acid and wake up further down.
