ATRANTIL Reduces Unwanted Bacteria
Reducing methane-producing bacteria returns the upper GI tract to its normal nearly sterile condition and helps the digestive system to work the way it should.
Ingredients
Made up of three polyphenols – Quebracho Colorado, Horse Chestnut, and Peppermint – Atrantil is backed by science and clinically proven.
Quebracho Extract
There are over 15 different species of quebracho tree, and many are used for commercial purposes, but only a few are used medicinally. In the realm of gut-related issues, quebracho-colorado has proven to be the most beneficial species and excels where other types of quebracho do not.
In Atrantil, the polyphenols from quebracho colorado are used, which are macromolecules and one of the most stable polyphenols found in nature.
The quebracho colorado polyphenol is a natural and very complex polyphenol, which is extremely powerful. It acts as a hydrogen sink. This means that quebracho colorado absorbs excess hydrogen in the small intestine, leaving less hydrogen to be made into methane or hydrogen sulfide by the archaebacteria.
Secondly, the quebracho begins to compromise the lipid bilayer of archaebacteria. Basically, this means it binds to and disrupts the cell wall of the archaebacteria to allow the horse chestnut to come in and do its job.
As a polyphenol, quebracho is packed with beneficial antioxidants and provides anti-inflammatory properties. In the colon, it is broken down and acts as both a prebiotic and postbiotic.
Peppermint Leaf
Peppermint is used in many different products because it is so potent and beneficial for your health. Peppermint candies and tea have long been used in traditional medicines to calm upset stomachs and heal other ailments.
Peppermint, a natural polyphenol, has been found to have antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory properties and boosts your immune system as well.
Atrantil uses the whole leaf extract of peppermint (not just oil) to briefly relax the small bowel and soothe/calm down the inflammation of the gut, which in turn allows the other two ingredients in Atrantil (quebracho and horse chestnut) to work more efficiently.
Horse Chestnut
Horse chestnut has been used for hundreds of years in medicine for a variety of conditions. From improving leg swelling to gastrointestinal problems, the use of horse chestnut as a supplement has long been documented and more recently researched.
Horse chestnut is a potent source of flavonoids and saponins, which gives it strong antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. It also has anti-fungal and anti-bacterial properties as well.
In Atrantil, the polyphenols of horse chestnut are used for a very specific purpose.
Horse chestnut is a natural inhibitor to the enzyme that allows methane to be produced. Thus, horse chestnut finds where the cell wall of the archaebacteria has been compromised and shuts down the methane or hydrogen sulfide-producing mechanism of the archaebacteria, rendering them useless. This creates a hostile environment for the archaea and they go back into the colon where they belong.
The second function of the Horse Chestnut is that it has bactericidal properties, which remove the bacteria from the small intestine as well, to get them to go back into the colon where they belong.
Atrantil’s three main ingredients function is threefold:
- Gets rid of the hydrogen so that there is less hydrogen to be made into methane or hydrogen sulfide.
- Gets rid of the bacteria and gets it to go into the colon where it belongs.
- Gets rid of the archaea so that it goes back into the colon where it belongs.
With these 3 functions, Atrantil allows your small intestine to flow freely once again and allows the bacteria to go back to the colon where they belong- relieving gut symptoms.
This is why Atrantil works so well for bacterial overgrowth. All three of the main ingredients in Atrantil are natural polyphenols which work together synergistically, to get to the root cause of the problem and eliminate it. By targeting the cause, Atrantil thereby eliminates the symptoms of bloating and abdominal discomfort with/without diarrhea, constipation, or both.
After their work is done in the small bowel, the polyphenols move to the colon where they are naturally cleaved and broken down into beneficial prebiotics and postbiotics.
Atrantil Clinical Trials
Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine Study
This study demonstrated the most ideal test for any over the counter solution regarding health issues such as bloating or associated gastrointestinal methane problems.
First, the results demonstrated that 56% of all participants experienced adequate relief. Those results were measured against SEVEN categories of suffering.
Second, this was a 100% independent, major university medical school test constructed without bias.
Third, essentially there were no exclusionary criteria for participants. These are serious parameters for any solution to meet a challenge and Atrantil more than met expectations.
The integrity of the design was trusted to a worldwide recognised leader in gastroenterology, the Principal Investigator, Darren Brenner, MD, FACG, AGAF, RFF. Dr. Brenner is a professor of medicine and surgery, an IDP Foundation Research Scholar, and the director of the Northwestern University Neurophysiology Program.
None of KBS Research, LLC and all associated partners had any influence, monetary or otherwise, regarding the study design, product acquisition, or analysis of results.
Double-Blind Study
In a double-blind clinical study of patients suffering from bloating, constipation and abdominal discomfort, Atrantil proved to be more than 88 percent effective in relieving symptoms.
The results of the study were published in the Journal of Gastroenterology and Hepatology Research – September 21, 2015 pp. 1762-1767.
Open Label Study
The open-label study targeted the toughest-to-treat patients to illustrate the efficacy of Atrantil.
Before beginning the study, patients qualified to participate only after failing to find relief from at least four other therapies. The trial showed that 80 percent of patients found relief after using Atrantil to control their bloating, constipation and abdominal discomfort.
The results of the study were published in the World Journal of Gastrointestinal Pharmacology and Therapeutics – August 6, 2016 pp. 463-468.
Atrantil FAQ
Yes, Atrantil has a super high antioxidant count and is full of beneficial polyphenols. Taking Atrantil on a daily basis is ideal for maintaining overall digestive protection and support.
Begin dosing Atrantil at two capsules three times per day, with each dose taken at the beginning of meals. Most users experience significant relief within 20 to 30 days of starting Atrantil. Some may take longer.
Once relief is realised, consider reducing dosing to two capsules twice daily. If symptoms remain under control, reduce dosing further to two capsules daily.
Begin dosing Atrantil at two capsules as abdominal discomfort or bloating symptoms occur or along with foods known to cause symptoms. Most users experience relief in a few hours.
If relief doesn’t occur, consider increasing dosing to two capsules, three times per day, until significant relief is achieved. Reduce dosing as appropriate once relief is achieved and maintained.
After relief is found, maintenance dosing of two capsules daily can protect the environment of the bowel and prevent symptoms.
For known or suspected trigger foods, recommend that patients take one or two capsules before consuming that food.
People suffering from occasional symptoms have seen results in a couple of hours after taking one dose of two capsules. We recommend that you continue to take Atrantil up to three times a day until you achieve significant relief. With this schedule, you can typically expect to see relief in seven to 10 days. However, for some sufferers, it may take 20 to 30 days to experience significant relief.*
*Individual results may vary
Yes. Gas producing bacteria is thought to be the root cause of symptoms for most sufferers. The mechanism of action of Atrantil is effective, but for patients with significantly larger amounts of methane producing bacteria, it’s reasonable to expect that it may take 20 to 30 days to experience relief.*
*Individual results may vary
If I feel no relief or even a little extra fatigued when beginning Atrantil therapy, is that normal?
Yes. For some, varying amounts of bacteria will affect the amount of time required to take control of your symptoms. In addition, it’s quite possible that the bacteria may release very small amounts of toxins as Atrantil begins to work. This is an expected reaction and an indication that Atrantil is working very well. Atrantil therapy should be continued during this period, and in most cases taking one low-dose aspirin or ibuprofen will help with these symptoms.*
*Individual results may vary
The side effect profile for Atrantil has been very minimal. A small amount of customers have seen some mild abdominal discomfort when taken on an empty stomach.
It is ok to continue taking other supplements and digestive enzymes while taking Atrantil. However, we do not recommend taking probiotics while taking Atrantil, unless they are spore based.
The reason we do not recommend other kinds of probiotics is because Atrantil works to get rid of the overgrowth of bacteria in the small bowel, which causes the adverse symptoms. By adding in more bacteria through probiotics, you are adding more fuel to the fire by putting more bacteria in the area we are trying to get rid of it.
However, once Atrantil has had a chance to work and the small bowel is able to flow freely again, so that the bacteria flow into the colon where they belong, you can add back in the probiotics. But, if you do choose to take probiotics while on Atrantil, just know it may take longer to see results. And in that case, we recommend spacing them at least an hour apart from the time you take Atrantil.
Atrantil can be taken with or without food, but for best results, we recommend taking it 30 minutes before meals

Which Atrantil is right for your patients?
Atrantil
Great to Treat:
- Bloating: chronic or occasional – the best way to determine if it’s real bloating, if you eat starches or carbohydrates and soon after you feel uncomfortable or tight, that is likely bloating.
- Change in bowel habits: you were once regular, but now you have unpredictable bloating and constipation or even diarrhea when you’re not ill.
- Abdominal discomfort, uncomfortable digestion
- Leaky gut: systemic inflammation, not sleeping well, achy body, unexplained fatigue
Atrantil Pro
Great to Treat:
- Dysbiosis: If you’re constantly tired, feeling nauseous, or dealing with frequent diarrhea, and you have to plan your day around bathroom breaks, this might be your issue.
- Meds & Recent Antibiotic Use: Everything was fine until you started a new medication, like an antibiotic, and now your digestion and maybe even your skin are all messed up.
- Leaky Gut: If you’ve tried regular Atrantil but still have ongoing gut issues, you might need an extra boost from our additional spore biotics because your gut might be in worse shape than expected.
