Sugar Shift®
Starter Culture

One of the best things about our product is it is a well-balanced, very specific community of bacteria for gut health that includes L. reuteri. Our blend also contains inulin so you will not have to add it to make yogurt.

Fermentation is a natural process where carbohydrates are broken down by bacteria without the use of oxygen. In this process, the bacteria convert sugar into alcohol, acid, and/or gas to produce energy. Fermentation also produces ethanol, carbon dioxide, and lactic acid, which not only enhance the flavor and texture of foods but also increases their shelf life.

By consuming fermented foods, you can increase your intake of beneficial bacteria and diversity, which helps support a healthy gut microbiome. Using our Sugar Shift® Starter Culture is an easy and effective way to transform regular foods into superfoods and promote a healthy digestive system.

Our unique eight-strain formula was designed to tackle the growing problem of sugar addiction and its impact on the microbiome. The formula takes sugar head-on by converting glucose and fructose in the gut to the powerful free radical scavenger, mannitol. Mannitol is the most abundant sugar in nature. Our formula includes three keystone strains that are proprietary to us and work in harmony with the other five strains to form a stable, sustainable community. This allows the gut microbiome to sequester heavy metals, produce short chain fatty acids, recycle iron, and copper, and produce more energy. This formula reduces Gram negative bacteria and their harmful endotoxins and produces anti-inflammatory substances like glutathione and melatonin.

Our working community of strains come to life in the yogurt culture and they begin to produce many enzymes that break down proteins, fats and sugars in the milk, breaking them down into smaller amino acid molecules.

Our Sugar Shift® Starter Culture simply activates when adding it to liquid. Once the culture is hydrated in dairy or milk, the bacteria in the culture become active. These bacteria then start multiplying and consuming the lactose present in the milk, converting it into lactic acid. This process lowers the pH of the milk, which prevents the growth of harmful microorganisms and extends its shelf life. The lactic acid also gives yogurt its tangy taste and creates a smooth, thick texture.

Based on Dr. Davis' SIBO-reducing Super Gut protocol, we recommend enjoying 1/4 to 1/2 cup of finished yogurt per day.
