I think that the better ones are covered with a shell that only
dissolves in the intestines. But that is really an assumption on my part.

Ooh! Ooh! I know! <waves hand>

They're probably in the form of spores, which have to be tough enough
to survive drying out, temperature swings, and, presumably,
inhospitable pH environments.
Probably the reason many of those intestinal organisms became human
symbiotes is because they made spores that could survive in the
environment and be consumed with food. Our ancient ancestors didn't
always wash their food, after all!
I just looked, and the Wikipedia article on spores seem like it'd fill
in the blanks. (I skimmed.)
