Absolutely, freeze-dried bacteria resist and hold up well in warm weather conditions. This process helps to preserve the beneficial bacteria and makes them easier to transport.

Our probiotic powders are offered in quantities of 30 gram or 60 gram using Amber Glass 150CC or 200CC bottle sizes. Probiotic powders vary in volume, texture, and appearance while some strains are light and fluffy other are high in density. This is the reason why some products appear fuller in comparison. The label on the bottle states the amount contained of each product.

Taking probiotics on an empty stomach can increase their chances of survival as the stomach’s acidity is relatively lower. For this reason, we recommend taking our probiotics first in the morning or at bedtime 2 hours after the last meal of the day. However, it is always best to consult your doctor or nutritionist for more detailed medical information.

When it comes to dosage it is really difficult to tell what dosage is right for you because every person is unique. Since our probiotic powders are high in potency, we recommend starting with a low dosage and increase gradually until you find the right dosage that provides your desired results.

Probiotics vary in texture, appearance, and taste. While some strains are fluffy and dissolve easily in water, other strains that are high in density that don't seem to dissolve easily in water. For this reason, we recommend using any size thermal cup or shaker with a lid and pour your desired amount of water and probiotic powder and shake well for less than a minute and then consume.

While probiotic supplements are considered safe, there is a possibility that you'll experience side effects while taking them, especially in the beginning. Upset stomach, bloating, gas and diarrhea are common (and usually mild) side effects that resolve fairly quickly.

If symptoms become too uncomfortable, you can reduce your dosage until they subside and then try slowly increasing to the full dosage or your doctor's specific recommendation.

When using our products, we highly recommend keeping them stored properly as indicated on bottle label. This means avoid any moisture getting inside the bottle, so it doesn't change from powder form to a solid appearance. Therefore, it is important to keep the cap closed tightly when stored. When scooping the probiotic out of the bottle by using the spoons or utensils, they must be completely dry to avoid moisture getting inside the bottle. The probiotic is still effective, but we recommend following our recommendations to avoid change in appearance.
