The Difference

Why is Elixa so much more effective than the other probiotic supplements out there? I mean… all probiotics are the same, right? (Wrong!)

The answer is simple. Elixa supplies the correct species and strains of bacteria, in the correct quantities, to your large intestine – INTACT.
The key difference here is that the bacteria arrive intact to the large intestine. This means they are viable; able to revive, settle into their new home and begin performing their beneficial processes. Although this is a simple concept, how to achieve this result is far from simple.

Karl Seddon, the founder of our company, graduated from the University of Oxford with a Masters Degree in Biomedical Engineering. Karl wrote his Masters’ thesis on ‘The Rheological Properties of Electrospun Nanofibre Membranes and its Effect on Maturation of Human Mesochymal Stem Cells’. After completing his academic career he spent 3 years developing a set of pioneering scientific processes and making them functional on an industrial manufacturing scale. Collectively known as: Fortress-5 Technology.

No matter what strains and quantities of probiotic bacteria you use, if they are damaged within seconds of entering the stomach, they can not achieve the desired effect to any degree. Fortress-5 Technology was developed specifically to solve this problem and the only probiotic supplement that utilises this process is Elixa.
