What Is Human Native™ and Why It Matters for Your Gut

Not all probiotics are created equal. Many on the market are sourced from soil, dairy, or plants. While they may provide temporary benefits, they are not natural residents of the human gut.

Human Native™ refers to probiotic strains that naturally belong in a healthy human microbiome. These strains are already adapted to live, grow, and work within your gut environment, making them more effective at restoring balance and supporting long-term health.

Why Human Native™ Is Different

When you introduce a strain that is already native to the human gut, it does not have to “fight” to survive. It can:

• Attach to your gut lining and establish itself more easily
• Communicate with your immune system in a way your body recognizes
• Produce beneficial compounds that your gut naturally uses for digestion, immunity, and brain health

Because they are designed for your gut, Human Native™ strains do not need massive doses to be effective. Even in moderate amounts, they can create meaningful change.

Meet Bifidobacterium Adolescentis

One of the most important Human Native™ strains is Bifidobacterium adolescentis. It plays a key role in:

• Supporting natural lactase enzyme production to improve dairy digestion
• Strengthening the gut barrier to reduce inflammation and improve nutrient absorption
• Producing beneficial metabolites that help regulate mood and overall well-being

When your gut microbiome is lacking this strain, you are more likely to experience digestive discomfort, food sensitivities, and lower resilience against inflammation.

Why It Works Better with Precision Prebiotics

Even the best probiotic needs the right food to thrive. That is why Human Native™ probiotics are most effective when paired with Precision Prebiotics that feed only beneficial bacteria. This creates a gut environment where the right strains can grow and rebalance your microbiome naturally.

A Smarter Way to Restore Gut Health

Human Native™ probiotics do more than temporarily pass through your system. They integrate into your gut ecosystem, helping it return to a state of balance and resilience.
