Probiotic
Bifidobacterium lactis
One of the most widely studied probiotic species. Research links it to more regular bowel movements and a healthier balance of bacteria in the large intestine.

Inside the capsule
A three-strain formula with prebiotic and postbiotic support
Rather than packing in dozens of strains, Bioma focuses on three well-researched Bifidobacteria and pairs them with a fiber that feeds them and a compound that nourishes the gut lining. The complete ingredient and strain list is published in full in this USA Today press release.
Probiotic
Bifidobacterium longum
A native resident of the human gut that helps break down complex carbohydrates and is associated with gut-barrier support and reduced occasional bloating.
Probiotic
Bifidobacterium breve
Studied for its role in digestive comfort and metabolic health, including early research on body composition in adults.
Prebiotic
Xylooligosaccharides (XOS)
A plant-derived fiber that feeds beneficial Bifidobacteria, helping the probiotic strains establish themselves rather than simply passing through.
Postbiotic
Tributyrin
A precursor to butyrate — the short-chain fatty acid colon cells use as fuel — included to support the lining of the gut.
Why a synbiotic?
Combining probiotics with the prebiotic they prefer is designed to help the strains survive, settle and stay active in the gut.
How it supports you
Gut health, digestion, and weight management
Gut health
Rebalancing the microbiome
Diet, stress, travel and antibiotics can all shift the balance of gut bacteria. Bioma pairs three Bifidobacterium strains with a prebiotic that feeds them, an approach known as a synbiotic, aimed at helping beneficial bacteria take hold.
- Supports a diverse, balanced microbiome
- Prebiotic fiber helps strains colonize
- Postbiotic butyrate supports the gut lining
Digestion
Everyday comfort after meals
Bifidobacteria help ferment fibers the body cannot digest on its own. Users of probiotics like these commonly look for relief from occasional gas, bloating and irregularity as their digestion settles into a steadier rhythm.
- May ease occasional bloating and gas
- Supports regular bowel movements
- Aids the breakdown of dietary fiber
Weight management
A supporting role, not a shortcut
Emerging research suggests the gut microbiome influences appetite signaling, energy harvest and metabolic health. A probiotic is best viewed as one supporting piece of a plan built on balanced eating, movement and sleep.
- Supports healthy metabolic function
- Complements a balanced diet and activity
- Results vary from person to person
Getting started
How to take Bioma for the best results
Each bottle holds 60 capsules — a 30-day supply. Consistency matters more than timing, so build it into a routine you already have.
Give your microbiome at least four weeks of daily use before judging results.
- 01
Take two capsules daily
Follow the label directions — typically two capsules per day with water, ideally at the same time each day.
- 02
Stay consistent
The microbiome changes gradually. Most people evaluate a probiotic over several weeks of daily use rather than days.
- 03
Support it with fiber
Vegetables, legumes, fruits and whole grains give beneficial bacteria more to work with and amplify the prebiotic effect.
- 04
Check with your doctor
Especially if you are pregnant, nursing, immunocompromised, or taking medication.
Frequently asked questions
What is in the Bioma probiotic formula?+
Bioma combines three probiotic strains — Bifidobacterium lactis, Bifidobacterium longum and Bifidobacterium breve — with xylooligosaccharides (XOS) as a prebiotic and tributyrin as a postbiotic. The company has published a full ingredient and strain disclosure for the formula.
What is the difference between a probiotic, prebiotic and postbiotic?+
Probiotics are live beneficial bacteria. Prebiotics are fibers that feed those bacteria. Postbiotics are beneficial compounds produced when bacteria ferment fiber, such as butyrate. Bioma includes one of each type.
Can a probiotic help with weight loss?+
Probiotics are not a weight-loss drug. Research into the gut microbiome and metabolism is promising, but any effect is modest and works best alongside healthy eating, regular activity and good sleep.
How long before I notice a difference?+
Experiences vary. Some people notice digestive changes within the first couple of weeks, while others take longer. Consistent daily use over at least a month gives a fairer picture.
Are there side effects?+
Probiotics are generally well tolerated. Some people experience mild gas or bloating in the first days as the gut adjusts. Stop use and consult a healthcare provider if you experience any adverse reaction.
