DS-01® Daily Synbiotic

Seed’s DS-01® combines 24 clinically and scientifically studied probiotic strains (not found in yogurt, most supplements, or fermented foods and beverages) with a non-fermenting prebiotic compound concentrated from Indian pomegranate.

It’s among the first to take a Microbe-Systems Approach with strain-specific benefits beyond digestive health, including skin health, heart health, gut immune function, gut barrier integrity, and micronutrient synthesis. It’s also among the first formulations to include a strain that synthesizes folate and increases production within the body.

DS-01® is meant for adults ages 18+.

DS-01® contains probiotic strains that have been clinically and scientifically studied to provide benefits around gastrointestinal function, skin health, heart health, gut immune function, gut barrier integrity, and micronutrient synthesis. You may access the strain-specific clinical studies associated with each benefit in our Reference Library.

Next-generation probiotics

A proprietary formulation comprising of 24 strains characterized at academic institutions and research partners in Italy, Spain, Belgium, US, and Japan. 23 of our strains are human-derived and one strain was isolated from fruit (screened against 400+ strains of the same species) specifically because it has clinically demonstrated the ability to help promote healthy cholesterol levels. Our benefits have been validated in 16 strain-specific, published human studies as well as 13 in vitro/ex vivo mechanistic studies.

Nested Capsule Technology + Patented algae delivery system

Bacteria are fragile—they are sensitive to light, temperature, and moisture. In many cases, they hardly survive the trip from manufacturer to store shelf, much less your digestive process (think stomach acids and bile). We took care of this. Our exclusive nested capsule technology ensures bacteria stay alive and viable through digestion and make it to your colon, where their work begins. We use a patented algae delivery system to provide additional protection for our most sensitive strains. This also means there’s no synthetic or chemical coating, and that DS-01® requires no refrigeration.

DS-01® is tested for: Dairy, Gluten, Soy, GMOs, Nuts, Shellfish, Sesame, Glyphosate/AMPA, and 14 classes of allergens defined by European Food and Safety Authority (EFSA)

It adheres to the following diets: Vegan • Vegetarian • Ketogenic • Gluten-Free • Intermittent Fasting.

DS-01® does not contain genetically modified organisms, and as such, is classified as non-GMO.

However, as a company grounded in science, we also want to ensure that labeling our product as non-GMO doesn’t contribute to blanket fears and misunderstandings of GMOs in general. Just as we aim to steward the term probiotics, there are scientists and researchers working to steward the field of synthetic biology and bioengineering towards applications that can save many lives (i.e. insulin—without genetic engineering we would not be able to meet demand) and ensure humanity’s survival on this planet, while protecting the planet itself (i.e. genetically engineered bacteria that can create biomaterials to replace plastic or produce biofuels affordably, efficiently, and sustainably).

Like bacteria, GMOs have faced a long and complex history. Like any industry or category, there are those who don’t have the consumer’s best interests in mind, but also those who will relentlessly push for us to use biotechnology responsibly, for the benefit of the planet and its people. Whatever your stance on GMOs, the only way forward is an open mind and open dialogue.

Probiotics, in general, do not appear to pose any safety concerns for pregnant and lactating individuals. The current literature does not indicate an increase in adverse pregnancy outcomes when probiotics are used by healthy individuals.

As with any dietary supplement or new health protocol contemplated during pregnancy or lactation, we recommend speaking with your physician or obstetrician before you start consuming DS-01® Daily Synbiotic.

With any new diet, product, or change, your body may experience a temporary acclimation period. In the first few days of taking your DS-01®, you may feel some gastrointestinal discomfort, abdominal tightness, mild nausea, or changes in your stool. This is very normal.

An immediate physiological reaction is a sign that our probiotics are viable and attuning to your system as they move through your gastrointestinal tract. Any discomfort generally subsides within the first one to two weeks.

As you begin Seeding, we suggest this acclimation protocol:

Day 1-3

Take 1 capsule daily.

Day 4

When you’re ready, increase to the full dose of 2 capsules at once, daily.

We’re here for any questions—[email protected]

We don’t recommend this, as bacteria are sensitive to light. Our jar is designed to protect your DS-01®, so your capsules should be stored in it. Every first purchase comes with a complimentary travel vial, which holds 14 capsules (1 week’s worth), which is also safe for transporting your DS-01® on the go.

Adults—take 2 capsules daily, all at once. Preferably on an empty stomach to limit exposure to digestive enzymes and bile salts. However, you know your body best—if it’s more comfortable for you to take with food, please feel free to do so.

2 capsules, daily.

Everyone’s body is different, and the benefits you may "feel" (ease of bloating, more regular bowel movements) are often just the most visceral ones.

Many people feel results in as a little as 24-48 hours due to localized benefits like digestive health support. Other longer term benefits like cardiovascular health and gut immune function may take longer, or you may not notice anything at all. That’s completely normal. As long as you continue your daily intake, those beneficial microbes are doing their work inside to program, sustain, and enhance your health.

DS-01® is safe to take with other supplements.

There are no known contraindications with DS-01® and any over the counter or prescription medications, though we encourage you to double check with your physician before adding our product to your regimen.

We recommend taking DS-01® on an empty stomach to limit exposure to digestive enzymes and bile salts. However, you know your body best—if it’s more comfortable for you to take with food, please feel free.

It’s safe to take more than the recommended dosage, though there is not necessarily any added benefit.

It’s safe to take if expired, however, we only guarantee potency and efficacy up until the expiration date. If your product is expired when you receive your order, please let us know and we will replace it free of charge.

There’s no harm if you miss a day, or even if you miss a few. But for optimal results, daily intake is encouraged.

This is because our probiotics are transient microbes, which journey through your colon (where the majority of your microbiome resides) to activate systemic benefits through programmed interactions with your existing bacteria and your body. That’s why continuous, daily intake is important using clinically and scientifically studied strains and dosages.

The short answer is no. No refrigeration necessary.

It’s a question we receive often, since many probiotics are sold in the refrigerated section at grocery stores and retailers. However, contrary to perishable food products, refrigeration doesn’t mean "freshness" or superiority. In fact, if a probiotic does not survive at ambient temperature outside of the refrigerator, it can reflect weak stability of the product, low viable organism count, or inadequate overages in formulation.

If your home is consistently warmer than 79° F for extended periods, consider refrigerating in an oxygen tight container to avoid exposure to moisture.

If for any reason you are not satisfied with your purchase, you may request a refund within 30 days of delivery of your first order. We’ll refund you for the full cost of the product less shipping, VAT, or duties—no questions asked. For all subsequent shipments, you may reschedule or cancel at any time in your account.

The planet is really important to us, so we’re constantly looking for materials that are sustainable without sacrificing the safety and protection of your product.

We’ve conducted extensive heat testing on our products—after 10 days of constant, 24 hour, 100º F exposure (which is highly unlikely even in the heat of summer), our probiotic bacteria counts and viability exceeded the living cell counts stated on our label.

DS-01® and PDS-08® won’t be affected in temperatures below freezing as well. In fact, freezing and below freezing temperatures are good at keeping the bacteria in an ideal state. 

Depending on the temperature of your home (or where you are traveling), kindly follow the recommended storage guidelines.
