Ganeden’s 24th peer-reviewed and published study, along with new findings show probiotic strain, GanedenBC30 (Bacillus coagulans GBI-30, 6086), supports the body’s utilization of protein and also enhances vitamin and mineral absorption.
In a study conducted by the University of Tampa and Increnovo LLC, it was found that GanedenBC30 supports protein utilization as measured by a reduction of muscle soreness and increased perceived recovery.
GanedenBC30 with 20 g of protein was able to protect the muscle from damage as shown by perceptual measures and blood work, resulting in improvement in five protein utilization end points: decreased recovery time, decreased soreness, reduced swelling, increased power and decreased blood kinase.
The study, which was run by the facilities of Dr. Jacob Wilson and managed by Dr. Ralf Jäger, is the first study of a probiotic showing ergogenic effects in athletes, with results benefiting the sports nutrition and protein functional food and beverage categories.
The study has been peer-reviewed and published in the PeerJ journal.
An independent study demonstrated that consuming one billion colony forming units or CFU of GanedenBC30 enhances utilization of vitamins and minerals, including calcium, iron, Vitamin B2, Vitamin B5 and Vitamin B12.
