Question 1

Why this formulation and how does it work?

Accepted Answer

Five strains in one capsule is the central formulation decision here. Most single-strain or two-strain products leave gaps; this one includes both Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium species alongside Saccharomyces cerevisiae (boulardii), a yeast. The product is free from dairy protein, lactose, gluten, wheat, soy protein, eggs, nuts, starches, and artificial colours, sweeteners, flavours, and preservatives — a clean excipient profile for a product taken daily. Each capsule is vegetable-based, making it suitable for vegans.
The product is cold-packed and requires refrigeration. Storing probiotics at 2°C to 8°C is standard practice for maintaining viable counts through to the end of the pack — a stability commitment about the product before it is opened, not a statement about anything beyond that.
Five Strains, One Capsule
Lactobacillus acidophilus (NCFM®) at 20 billion CFU is the lead ingredient by volume. Bifidobacterium lactis (Bi-07) contributes 12.5 billion CFU, Lactobacillus rhamnosus (HN001™) adds 10 billion CFU, Bifidobacterium animalis ssp lactis (HN019™) provides 5 billion CFU, and Saccharomyces cerevisiae (boulardii) rounds out the formula at 5 billion CFU. The total per capsule is 52.5 billion CFU.
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (boulardii)
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (boulardii) is a yeast. Its inclusion alongside four bacterial strains gives this formula a broader compositional profile than products containing only jLactobacillus or Bifidobacterium species.
