Gut Restore is our go-to choice to repopulate and heal the gut quickly. Gut Restore is a blend of 18 powerful probiotic strains, Lactobacillus spp., Bifidobacterium spp., and Streptococcus thermophilus, combined with the unique and potent B. subtilis DE111 strain.
DE111 is a research-backed, spore-forming probiotic strain. In our nearly 20 years of functional medicine practice working with thousands of patients, we’ve seen the best clinical benefits by combining multi-strain probiotics with spore-based ones. The spores are resistant to extremes of pH and temperature, which means they pass through the small intestine unharmed. Once in the large intestine, DE111 spores germinate and the bacteria quickly begin to grow and flourish. They colonize your gut and help reestablish a healthy flora.
The hardy nature of DE111 also means you don’t have to worry about storage. It doesn’t need to be refrigerated and has a shelf life of over 24 months. It is one of the best probiotics for women and leaky gut treatment.
Benefits of Gut Restore from Dr. Eric Snow
Promotes healthy digestion and regularity
At our busy practice in Lake Charles, Louisiana, we’ve helped thousands of patients with digestive and inflammatory issues with a functional medicine approach. Our first-line therapy is through food, nutrition, and gut healing to restore overall health.
When people ask us how to increase good bacteria in the gut naturally and restore gut health, we always recommend Gut Restore with Bacillus subtilis DE111. First, there is a lot of clinical evidence behind this strain. Second, we’ve seen the best results with it.
A clinical trial published in the Journal of Probiotics & Health involved 50 participants with occasional constipation and diarrhea. They received 1 billion CFU of B. subtilis DE111 or placebo for 90 days. During the last two weeks compared to the first two weeks, the bowel movements of the probiotic group became significantly more regular. Whereas, the bowel movements of the placebo group remained the same.
In addition, the combination of research-backed lactic acid probiotic strains deliver synergistic benefits. It increases the odds of these bacteria staying in your gut and displacing bad bacteria.
Gut Restore may help relieve the following:
- Abdominal discomfort
- Sluggish bowel movements
- Loose stools and constipation
- Frequent bowel movements
- Bloating and sensation of fullness
- Excess gas
- Leaky gut syndrome symptoms
Gut Restore isn’t just for adults. In children, B. subtilis DE111 increases beneficial gut bacteria, while reducing inflammatory ones, making it an excellent choice of natural probiotic for kids.
>Strengthens and heals the gut barrier
Many of our patients came to us struggling with obscure health issues and symptoms of chronic inflammation. A leaky gut is always a contributor to these conditions.
When the barrier between the intestinal cells is “leaky”, toxins, viruses, and other potentially harmful substances can enter the bloodstream. This can activate your immune system, contributing to suboptimal health and chronic symptoms.
Having helped thousands of patients heal their gut, we’ve developed our gut healing protocol, the 30-day Gut Reset. Gut Restore is a key component of our program as research has confirmed the ability of the probiotic strains to support gut barrier healing.
Bacillus subtilis strains
- Strengthen the gut barrier
- Promote a balanced inflammatory response in the gut lining
- Protect the gut from toxins and pathogens
In addition to Bacillus subtilis, healthy populations of Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium species in the gut preserves the integrity of the gut barrier. [R]
That’s why we’ve included multiple Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium strains along with B. subtilis DE111 as a comprehensive probiotic for gut healing and inflammation balancing.
Promotes immune system balance and readiness
90% of your immune system is in the gut, so you need to support your gut to have a healthy immune system. A healthy and balanced immune system should know to ignore your own tissues, food, and allergens. At the same time, it should be ready to launch the right responses to the right germs or damaged cells.
A healthy gut flora is crucial for both immune balance and readiness because the gut microbes help train the immune system to do the right things. Therefore, we recommend Gut Restore as an evidence-based product to support immune health.
The probiotic strains we’ve chosen for Gut Restore are essential for optimal immune functions. They help keep a balance in both the innate and adaptive immune systems.
Aside from facilitating immune system balance, healthy gut bacteria also take up real estate so bad bugs can’t grow and take over.
Gut Restore is the perfect choice for
- Immune readiness in adults and children
- Restoring health and digestion after gut infection and antibiotic use
- Promoting a balanced immune and inflammatory response
Improves blood sugar control
A leaky gut can contribute to insulin resistance and unhealthy metabolism.
Taking probiotics and other ways to improve gut lining health help with fasting blood sugar and insulin levels, as well as improve insulin sensitivity. These could be due to decreases in inflammation and oxidative stress, as well as improved gut barrier functions.Probiotics are a great choice to support healthy blood sugar control.
Supports cardiovascular health
Leaky gut and dysbiosis can allow bacteria toxins such as lipopolysaccharides into the bloodstream. The LPS promotes inflammation and an unhealthy cholesterol profile, increasing vLDL and LDL, while decreasing HDL.
By supporting the gut lining and gut flora, probiotics can mitigate LPS translocation into the bloodstream.
Therefore, quality probiotics such as Gut Restore can promote heart health. In a placebo-controlled clinical trial, B. subtilis DE111 promoted a healthy blood lipid profiles and other markers of cardiovascular health.
Support healthy hormone balance
Hormones influence the ecosystem of the gut and vice versa. The gut flora influences levels of estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone. For this reason, probiotics support restoring and maintaining healthy hormonal balance.
Supportive for brain and mental health
The gut-brain-microbiota axis is a major contributor to mental health. Not surprisingly, dysbiosis and gut inflammation correlate with mood and mental health issues.
When you support the gut lining and restore the gut flora, you support the gut-brain-microbiota axis. In fact, many of our patients find their mood and brain function improve along with their overall health once they address their gut.
Many lactic acid bacteria strains in Gut Restore, such as Bifidobacteria and Lactobacillus rhamnosus are psychobiotics. These are probiotics that clinical and animal studies have demonstrated have mental health benefits through bacteria-brain relationships.
Therefore, Gut Restore may be a helpful addition as part of a more comprehensive plan for brain and mental health.
Athletic performance
Your gut plays a crucial role in modulating inflammation and helping you assimilate nutrients, which are both very important for athletic performance.
Clinical studies in Division I athletes show that the B. subtilis DE111 strain may improve body composition, strength, and recovery time from exercise in Division I athletes.
Weight loss and body composition
Your gut flora and gut health are key determinants of your body composition and weight. Dysbiosis and leaky gut can affect blood sugar control and hunger. Whereas, restoring a healthy gut flora and healing a leaky gut can be helpful for weight loss, especially in combination with diet and lifestyle changes.
Gut Restore also includes bacteria that studies show to help with weight loss, including:

Where is the best place to store Gut Restore?
Gut Restore is shelf stable at room temperature for 2+ years. Store in a cool, dry place. There is no need to refrigerate.
What time of the day should I take probiotics?
As long as you take probiotics away from food, it doesn’t matter what time of day you take them. Taking them is what matters, so choose the time of day you can be consistent.
Should I take them with or without food?
Ideally, take Gut Restore away from food. However, if your busy schedule makes that difficult, it’s better to take it with food than not taking it at all.
Should I take probiotics every day?
We usually recommend taking probiotic supplements daily for at least one to three months or until symptoms clearly begin to improve. After that, with a healthy diet, maintenance dosing may be enough a couple of times a week.
Is it safe to give probiotics to children?
Always consult with your child's pediatrician first, but in general, probiotics are safe and beneficial for children.
Are there side effects or contraindications?
Probiotics are generally safe. That being said, when first starting a probiotic, there can be big changes in the gut ecosystem depending on your individual makeup.
During this period of recalibration, changes in stool consistency and regularity can occur. These changes typically subside after a few days to a week.
If you’re immunocompromised or receiving any medical treatment, speak to your healthcare provider before introducing probiotics. Also, don’t take Gut Restore if you’re allergic or sensitive to any of its ingredients.
How long until I see results?
Results are individual and depend on what you are expecting to change. In general, digestive health can improve anywhere from the first week to a month later. If you are looking for changes in lipid numbers or hormones, 1-3 months is a more reasonable expectation.
