Cal'dophilus With FOS
Natural Factors
Overview
Cal'dophilus With FOS offers a blend of well-researched probiotic strains at clinically relevant doses, supported by the inclusion of FOS as a prebiotic. The total active cell count and individual strain dosages align with effective ranges for many probiotic benefits, especially in supporting gut health and immune function. The freeze-dried cultures and refrigeration recommendation suggest attention to potency.
The Good
Provides a clinically relevant total CFU count of 6 billion active cells per serving.
Contains multiple well-researched probiotic strains (Lactobacillus Rhamnosus, Lactobacillus Casei, Lactobacillus Acidophilus, Bifidobacterium Longum).
Includes Fructooligosaccharides (FOS) as a prebiotic to nourish beneficial gut bacteria.
The Bad
Contains dairy and soy, which are common allergens.
Some individuals may experience mild digestive upset (gas, bloating) initially.
Dosage of individual strains like Lactobacillus Acidophilus and Lactobacillus Casei are slightly lower than some optimal clinical studies for broader effects, though still beneficial.
Is it for you?
