Sure, probiotics are good for you, but how do you know you get live probiotic when you buy them?
How do you know you get live probiotic when you buy them? That depends on a few things:

What are probiotics exactly?
They’re good-for-you live microbes — either yeast or bacteria. There are countless of strains to choose from that serve different purposes (i.e. diarrhoea, bloating, etc) with fun scientific names like Saccromyces Boulardii and Bifidobacterium.
Are they still alive when I buy them?
Most probiotics FAIL stability and activity testing. That means you aren't getting what you paid for.
How do we keep our probiotics stable, alive and active?
-
Independent lab testing of every probiotic strain on arrival to our facility and before departure
-
On-going 3 monthly lab testing of each probiotic strain.
-
We overfill our probiotics by 180%. That means if you've bought Opti Flor™ this week, you'll be getting 90 billion live bacteria per serve rather than 32 billion.
-
We use acid resistant capsules that pass through the stomach and into the intestine intact, delivering live probiotics to where they are needed.
-
Our state-of-the-art storage and shipping facility in Sydney is temperature controlled 24/7.
-
All our probiotics are manufactured using shelf stable technology - it's rather impressive!
We have the strictest testing, stability, and manufacturing standards in the world, so that you can have peace of mind, that you're getting what you paid for, and you've got the absolute best chance of getting a great result.
