NOW Foods Supplements, Probiotic-10™ & Bifido Boost™ with 10 Strains, 25 Billion CFU Per Serving, plus PreticX™ XOS Prebiotic, 90 Veg Capsules

VERY POTENT! I would start with 1/8th tsp, trust me. It is strong. My husband and I eat many, MANY probiotic-rich foods (natto, kimchi, kombucha, coconut cult/kefir, etc.), and we still needed to cut the recommended dose down to an 1/8th of a tsp. Without being brash, I would recommend being by a bathroom, just in case. The powder is practically flavorless, and I love that it doesn’t have any weird fillers. We store ours in the fridge. My only issue was that it is a refrigerated product, but it didn’t come in a cold bag. The other minor complaint I have is the directions tell you to take on an empty stomach or in between meals. I disagree. Take with meals or shortly after, so the probiotics can feed on the prebiotic foods you ate AND have a fighting chance to survive in your gut. I also plan on using it as a starter for homemade soy and coconut yogurt. :) Look no further! I love this brand, and this probiotic powder is no different. Very good for your gut! Gut health= butt health.

Fantastic product, my all time favorite probiotic. Full range of important strains. Powder form is easy to adjust dosage as needed. Works great, nothing else I've tried comes close

No complaints at all about the performance of these probiotics. It has 10 strains with a total of 25 billion CFU. The blend of strains has been working very well with keeping things moving along without causing any distress, gas or bloating. The recommended dosage is quite high -- they suggest 3 capsules 1-2 times per day. I'm finding just one capsule provides the benefits I need, making this a very good value when it comes to cost per dose. The capsules themselves are rather large. They are not terribly difficult to swallow due to the shape, but they are larger than the typical probiotic capsules I've used in the past. The manufacturer recommends keeping them in the refrigerator once the bottle has been opened to maintain potency. Other than the size, no complaints. They work very well without any side effects and are quite reasonable in cost. I've used several other NOW brand products and have always been pleased with the quality.

I use 1/16 tsp for my very picky kiddo and he can’t detect it in water! It’s too early to tell if it’s helping his eczema but the fact he’ll even take it is a huge win

Prior to taking the Now Foods's probiotic, I used a different probiotic supplement with 10 unverified strains and 20 Billion. So 25 Billion, 1/4 teaspoon, wasn't a complete shock. The difference between probiotics isn't even comparable. Now Foods is far better than the other product. I noticed the difference in less than a week. Okay. Next are more graphic details about me and my husband's wonderful experiences with this product. I have many food allergies. Recently I reacted to two food colors, which I suspected last year but continued to eat because my symptoms were mild. This time though I had horrible stomach cramps and bloating plus a slew of other symptoms. My previous probiotic didn't relieve the stomach cramps and bloating until I consumed 80 to 100 Billion. Even then I couldn't sleep when I had the symptoms. After taking the Now Foods probiotic, my second dose (giving me 50 Billion in one day), the stomach cramps subsided within 30 minutes. I was able to get some sleep too. Now Foods Probiotic resolved all of my gastrointestinal symptoms within 12 hours. And I didn't get the dreaded explosive diarrhea which usually occurs after I've had stomach cramps and bloating. As well it helped relieve my numerous other systemic symptoms. I'm amazed with this product. My husband has suffered from a life long problem with constipation. I suggested he try the Now Foods Probiotic. He said he'd try anything once. After three days he was amazed to find that the probiotic had begun to normalize his bowel movements. He took 1/4 teaspoon (half the dose). Before taking the NOW Foods Probiotic, he used a single verified strain product with only 1 Billion twice a day. He's sold on this product so much that he requested I order more ASAP.

1/2 teaspoon added into my homemade soy milk and in the morning, I wake up to about a half gallon of amazing soy yogurt. Been doing this for over 5 years now, always with NOW Probiotics. I originally started with the capsules, but soon moved to bulk, to save all the opening of the capsules. Great flavor! Never failed! I make my soy milk with water and soy beans. I filter out the okara and then, when the soy milk has cooled to 110 degrees Farenheit, I stir in 1/2 teaspoon of the probiotics. I set the Instant Pot to YOGURT setting for 12 hours and let it go overnight. Wake up to about a half gallon of fresh, homemade soy yogurt. Never fails.

Hmm.. I don't know what to think about this yet. I've been using it for about a month now, on a daily basis. I really haven't noticed any difference since I started adding this to my regimen, though I take the recommended 1/2 tsp. I travel for work and thought adding a probiotic would help with what I call "traveler's tummy", with all the flights, eating out, sleeping in new places, etc. I saw that this brand doesn't actually need to be kept refrigerated (though it says so on the bottle), which for my lifestyle would be impossible. I did check to make sure the cultures are active by putting some in a small glass of milk and letting it sit out. I've done a bit of reading up on probiotics, and testing to make sure the cultures are active doesn't always mean you'll get a curdling affect, so with the contents of this particular powder, you wouldn't necessarily get the curdling due to the strains present. This powder did not produce said affect, but did smell just terrible after about 12 hours in the milk, which seemed to me like it was doing its thing. I'm not sure I'll buy this brand again since I'm not noticing any results. I might try the same mixture/ concentration from another brand to see if there's a difference.
