Probiotic Gold Acidophilus Extra Strength
Basic Vitamins
Overview
This probiotic provides Lactobacillus Acidophilus at a very low dosage (1 billion cells), which is significantly below generally effective clinical dosages for many common probiotic benefits. While L. acidophilus is a well-regarded probiotic, the low CFU count and lack of specific strain information limit its expected effectiveness for significant gastrointestinal or immune support.
The Good
Generally Well-Tolerated
Free from Common Allergens
Easy-to-Take Capsule Form
The Bad
Low Dose of Active Ingredient
Lack of Strain Information
Potential for Reduced Efficacy if Not Stored Properly
Is it for you?
