Seed 14-Day Gut Reset Probiotic Capsules - 28ct

A: I’ve done it both ways, I don’t think it made a difference

A: Seed team says take them together in replies but the 14 day cleanse come separated “morning” and “night”

A: We recommend taking both capsules of your DS-01® 14 Day Gut Reset together, with or without food, for 14 days to support gut recovery from temporary disruptors. As far as daily timing, there is no universal best time of day to take DS-01®, so we suggest finding a time that works best for your body and routine. The most important thing is continuous daily intake.

A: Great question! The 14-Day Gut Reset is designed as a short-term protocol to help quickly replenish beneficial bacteria and support gut barrier integrity—especially after disruptions like travel, stress, or certain medications. For ongoing support, many choose to transition to DS-01® Daily Synbiotic, which is formulated for continuous daily use to maintain long-term gut health. You can learn more about both options and how they work at seed.com. Let us know if you have any other questions—we’re here to help!

A: Thanks so much for reaching out with this question! DS-01® Daily Synbiotic and DS-01® 14 Day Gut Reset share the same powerful formula and dosage. However, these two innovations are packaged in different formats to suit various needs—14 Day Gut Reset for immediate gut recovery from occasional gut disruption, and DS-01® Daily Synbiotic for ongoing digestive and whole body benefits. For context, our product includes solely probiotic strains from the Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium genera with a long history of research, extensive safety records, and long-term microbiome stability data in a heterogenous population. You may view our entire strain list here. In addition, our probiotics are not measured by concentration (e.g. parts per billion), but by the amount of viable cells in each capsule. This in mind, each daily serving (2 capsules) contains 53.6 Billion AFU or 26.8 Billion AFU per capsule. For context, Seed uses AFU (Active Fluorescent Units) which are measured by flow cytometry—a modern method of counting cells with fluorescent tags, providing a more precise count. Through AFU, we are able to calculate precise measurement of all viable cells, including ones that are efficacious, but not necessarily culturable (and therefore would not be counted in a traditional plated CFU measurement). This is also a more effective way to count each organism in a complex community or multi-species, multi-strain synbiotic formulation. We hope this information helps clarify things a bit. Please don't hesitate to be in touch with any additional questions or feedback—we're here to help!

A: Great question! DS-01® Daily Synbiotic and the 14-Day Gut Reset share the same clinically studied formula and dosage. The key difference lies in their packaging and intended use—Daily Synbiotic is designed for ongoing, everyday support, while the 14-Day Gut Reset is intended for short-term protocols following gut disruption. That said, if the 14-Day format better suits your routine or travel needs, it can be used in place of the Daily Synbiotic for continued support. We just recommend returning to consistent, daily use to maintain long-term benefits.

A: It is safe to take DS-01® Gut Reset alongside VS-01™ Vaginal Synbiotic, and there is no functional redundancy in doing so. For context, DS-01® and VS-01™ were formulated for distinct benefits, so one won't necessarily replace the other. DS-01® was formulated for digestive, dermatologic, and cardiovascular health, plus gut barrier integrity, immune function, and micronutrient synthesis, while VS-01™ is clinically validated to restore a healthy vaginal microbiome and sustain regulated vaginal pH.

A: There are no known contraindications between probiotics and medications; therefore, DS-01® 14 Day Gut Reset would be generally safe to take alongside any prescription or over-the-counter medication(s). That said, it’s important to note that DS-01® 14 Day Gut Reset has not been studied in individuals with cancer, or those who have undergone any form of chemotherapy or other cancer treatment, so we cannot comment directly on any possible differences in effect or specific safety data in these populations. We would recommend that patients consult their oncologist or physician when considering adding any new product or supplement (including ours) to their routine, so that the physician may advise within the context of each individual's health history.

A: DS-01® Daily Synbiotic and DS-01® 14-Day Gut Reset share the same powerful formula and dosage. However, these two innovations are packaged in different formats to suit various needs—14 Day Gut Rescue for immediate gut recovery from occasional gut disruption, and DS-01® Daily Synbiotic for ongoing digestive and whole body benefits. For some context, 14 Day Gut Reset leverages data from one of our recent gold-standard clinical trials indicating that DS-01® can rapidly replenish beneficial bacteria and strengthen the gut barrier after exposure to temporary gut stressors. These findings reinforce the use of a two-week DS-01® protocol during and after recovery from GI stress, tailored for those requiring rapid gut recovery. On the other hand, continual daily use of DS-01® via subscription is suggested for ongoing, whole-body benefits including digestion, skin health, immune health, and cardiovascular health. DS-01® is not considered or regulated as a therapeutic and is therefore not intended to treat or prevent any condition or disease state. All of this in mind, DS-01® (including Daily Synbiotic and 14 Day Gut Reset) has not been studied in the context of chronic constipation, so we are unable to comment on any difference in effect or utility within this population. In general, probiotics are considered safe for use in most individuals. However, we always suggest an informed conversation with a primary care provider who may advise on the addition of DS-01® given your unique health history.

A: The use of probiotics and prebiotics is generally considered safe for use during pregnancy and does not pose any serious health concerns to the mother or infant. A recent umbrella review [1] supports the finding that no serious adverse effects for mother or infant are associated with intake of probiotics, prebiotics, or synbiotics in pregnant women. However, as with any dietary supplement or new health protocol contemplated during pregnancy, we recommend speaking with your physician or obstetrician before adding DS-01® to your routine.

A: Thanks for reaching out! DS-01® is not formulated with sea plants or spinach—rather, the signature green coloring of DS-01®’s outer capsule is from a water-soluble version of chlorophyll—known as chlorophyllin—which is sourced from alfalfa, and helps protect the contents of the capsules from the potentially damaging effects of light. With this said, we always recommend consulting your healthcare provider regarding the utility of DS-01® for your particular ecosystem, as they are best able to advise with your health history in mind.

A: Thank you for reaching out—it’s important to note that while you may experience an ‘acclimation period’ within the first few days of DS-01® 14 Day Gut Reset, any effects are generally confined to the gastrointestinal tract; therefore, kindly note we would not expect the emergence of fatigue to occur as a result of probiotic use. Importantly, however, we do recognize that every body has its own unique physiology, health history and microbial mosaic, as results of probiotics can and do vary. If you ever feel that any effects may be adverse, we recommend consulting with a healthcare provider to determine whether or not Gut Reset is right for your unique ecosystem.
