Friendly Force Probiotic
HealthForce
Overview
Friendly Force Probiotic provides a reasonable blend of beneficial bacteria and prebiotics. While the specific CFU count is stated at manufacture (25 billion CFU), the dosage of individual strains is not disclosed, which limits a precise efficacy assessment. The blend of various Lactobacillus strains, Streptococcus Thermophilus, and L. Bulgaricus, along with yacon and burdock as prebiotics, suggests a multi-faceted approach to gut health, with research supporting the benefits of these general categories.
The Good
Features a diverse blend of well-researched probiotic strains.
Includes whole-food prebiotic synergists (yacon, burdock) to nourish beneficial bacteria.
Contains supportive ingredients like marshmallow and kelp for gut lining integrity and immune support.
The Bad
The specific CFU count for each individual probiotic strain is not disclosed, making it difficult to assess optimal dosing.
Some ingredients (Marshmallow, Kelp, Shilajit) are present in low quantities (119mg for probiotic protection blend, 0.2mg for energetics blend), raising questions about their functional efficacy at these doses.
Effectiveness of 'Eneregetics' blend (Shilajit) at 0.2mg is highly questionable.
