WeCare Probiotics' BC99 Wins "Ingredient of the Year: Sports Nutrition" at Vitafoods Asia 2025

Bangkok, Thailand – September 22, 2025 – Wecare Probiotics are proud to announce that the flagship probiotic strain, Weizmannia (Bacillus) coagulans BC99, has been awarded the "Ingredient of the Year: Sports Nutrition" at Vitafoods Asia 2025. This celebrated win marks the second major international accolade for the strain in just four months, solidifying BC99’s global scientific reputation and market impact.

This latest award follows BC99's triumphant victory in the same category at the NutraIngredients Awards 2025 in Barcelona this past May. The back-to-back wins serve as powerful proof of the strain's efficacy and a significant milestone for China's growing prominence in the global high-end nutrition ingredients sector.

The recognition is grounded in BC99's robust scientific dossier, which includes over 10 clinical trials and more than 20 SCI publications. Specific research demonstrates its benefits for enhancing athletic performance, improving protein absorption, supporting muscle quality, and alleviating exercise-induced stress and anxiety.

Praised for its versatility, BC99 is already successfully formulated in various product applications across the Americas, Europe, Oceania, and other regions, including meal replacement powders and functional gummies. Its high potency of 300 billion CFU/gram, combined with heat resistance, GRAS certification, and protection by 12+ invention patents, makes it a uniquely stable and effective ingredient. Beyond sports nutrition, it also supports gut microbiota balance, immune function, and overall digestive comfort.

Wecare Probiotics stands as the only Chinese probiotic company to be honored with an "Ingredient of the Year" award in 2025, and BC99 remains the sole China-developed probiotic strain to be recognized among global winners this year. These consecutive awards reinforce Wecare's commitment to delivering science-backed, high-quality probiotic solutions and underscore China's emerging leadership in advanced nutritional science.
