The TrueOC Difference
You may be aware of the value of probiotics for gut health and maintaining a healthy microbiome environment in the intestines. It’s less commonly known that there’s another microbiome where we need to protect against the overgrowth of bad bacteria, which is the mouth and surrounding upper respiratory area (ear, nose and throat). The two oral probiotics in TrueOC help support you with this goal.
These oral probiotics were discovered by Professor John Tagg, a microbiologist at the University of Otago in New Zealand. Professor Tagg was curious why certain people aren’t as susceptible to oral health problems – such as cavities, bleeding gums, upper respiratory problems – as most of the population.
He discovered the answer: about 10% of humans can naturally produce protective Streptococcus salivarius organisms in their mouth. To help the other 90% of us, Professor Tagg developed two of these strains, named BLIS® K12 and BLIS® M18, for use as oral probiotics.
TrueOC is one of a limited number of products authorized to combine BLIS® K12 and BLIS® M18 for enhanced benefits.
The BLIS® K12 strain helps stimulate the immune system to help support upper respiratory (ear, nose, throat) health in children and adults and help reduce bad breath. It helps eliminate bad breath by targeting the root cause of bad breath, which is volatile sulfur compounds, instead of just masking it.
The second strain BLIS® M18 works more directly on dental health, helping to protect teeth and gums. It does this by helping to reduce the overgrowth of bacteria that can increase cavity risk and help to reduce plaque formation.
This helps to promote better tooth and gum health. TrueOC is an orange favored lozenge that dissolves in under a minute, releasing the two probiotic strains in your mouth where you want them.
Long known for soothing and moisturizing the skin and helping the body in many ways internally, research with Aloe vera is now finding it can be beneficial in the mouth, helping to soothe gums and reduce plaque formation. This is why Aloe vera is being included more frequently in natural toothpastes and oral rinses.
The action of Aloe vera nicely complements the benefits of the BLIS® K12 and BLIS®M18 oral probiotics in TrueOC for tooth and gum health. Each TrueOC lozenge contains a similar amount of Aloe vera that’s been found to be beneficial for oral health in published research.
What’s more, TrueOC is made with ACTIVAloe®, one of the premier sources of Aloe vera in the world. It’s certified for content and purity by the International Aloe Science Council (IASC).

BLIS® K12 (S. salivarius K12) was discovered and isolated by renowned microbiologist Professor John Tagg at the University of Otago in New Zealand. His passion is to find natural solutions for supporting ear, nose, and throat health, as he struggled in this area as a child.
A research breakthrough came when Dr. Tagg and his team isolated a unique strain of S. salivarius(K12) from a healthy child who, over a 6-year period, exhibited remarkable throat health.
Work began to develop this strain and after research indicated benefits and safety, BLIS® K12 was brought to market as part of a new generation of oral probiotics.
Research with BLIS® K12 indicates it can help support ear, nose, and throat health immune defenses in a way that many probiotics work – by crowding out and inhibiting undesirable bacteria. In this way BLIS® K12 helps to protect upper respiratory health, which is a gateway to overall health.
Much of the research with BLIS® K12 for immune health has been conducted on children since they’re more in need of ear, nose, and throat support, but studies showing benefits also have been conducted with adults.
BLIS® K12 can help reduce bad breath by targeting the root cause of bad breath, which is volatile sulfur compounds. These compounds are released when certain bacteria breakdown proteins on the tongue – and bad breath results.
BLIS® K12 works by helping to inhibit these bacteria, thereby targeting the source of bad breath instead of just masking it like many rinses, gums, or sprays. Research shows that BLIS® K12 may help reduce these volatile sulfur compounds after 14 days of use.
In addition to BLIS® K12, Dr. Tagg’s work resulted in the development of BLIS® M18 (S. salivarius M18). The benefits of the BLIS® M18 oral probiotic are centered around dental health.
BLIS® M18 helps protect teeth and gums in several ways. Like many probiotics, this strain can box out bad bacteria and protect against its overgrowth.
BLIS® M18 can go a step further, and helps produce 3 naturally occurring peptides that can actively target and inhibit some of the bad stuff.
In addition, BLIS® M18 has unique enzyme producing abilities that allow it to interfere with dental plaque formation and neutralize acid that can harm teeth and gums (we don’t believe any other oral probiotic does this).
The acid that BLIS® M18 may help neutralize can degrade tooth enamel, contribute to cavities, and worst case, even result in tooth loss, so this is an important potential benefit.
Research with BLIS® M18 indicates it may help improve tooth and gum health after 30 days of use.
This research looked at 4 measures of dental health that are commonly assessed during dental checkups (such as amount of dental plaque, bleeding, and pocket depth of gums), and found a significant improvement in those using BLIS® M18 for 30 days compared to a placebo group.

FAQ from
NatureCity Customers
The BLIS® K12 and BLIS® M18 probiotics in TrueOC are dairy-free as well as Kosher, Halal, gluten free, vegan, and non-GMO.
TrueOC is made in New Jersey at an FDA and NSF certified facility for Good Manufacturing Practices.(GMPs) in a section of their facility dedicated to probiotic products (designed to ensure careful handling so probiotic cells remain alive). The lozenges are individually sealed in blister packaging to protect the probiotics from elements that can destroy them.
A cool dry place is best. Storing in a refrigerator brings extra moisture into the equation, so we’d avoid that for storage.
Unless it’s an herbal mouthwash, avoid taking TrueOC until at least 3 hours after using mouthwash, which tend to kill good bacteria as well as bad bacteria. Many TrueOC users find they can eliminate mouthwash usage altogether as the BLIS® M18 oral probiotic helps address bad breath at its source.

Each serving of TrueOC consists of 1 lozenge. Place lozenge in mouth and allow to dissolve completely by swirling around mouth before swallowing.
Take at least 1 lozenge daily. For additional oral care support, a second lozenge can be taken, or use as directed by your healthcare practitioner.
Do not take TrueOC within 3 hours of using mouthwash as these products can destroy good bacteria as well as bad bacteria (herbal mouthwashes should not be a problem).
