I am always curious about the refrigeration issue. I thought that the more "potent" antibiotics needed refrigeration bc they are live cultures.

Dear Valued Customer, This a great question that we get often. Our probiotics are indeed lyophilized (freeze dried) to preserve shelf life. They are also produced with overages (more probiotic than what is stated on the label) and are produced with hardy, heat-resistant probiotic strains. Our lyophilized probiotics become live again after they are exposed to moisture inside the gut. There is a small amount of moisture present in the air so for the best results close the lid tightly after opening and/or refrigerate after opening the bottle. Please let us know if you have any other qustions or concerns. Sincerely, -Charles C. DrFormulas Support

A lot of nonsense could be spared if they would jiust list the complete ingredients. can't see if there are fillers or "other" ingredients

Greetings, our other ingredients used in Nexabiotic® include hypromellose (the plant material the capsules are made of), gellan gum (one of the components of the acid-resistant capsule), maltodextrin (glucose multimers which function as prebiotic), and medium chain triglyceride oil (a vegetarian oil that coats the capsules and prevents them from sticking).Sincerely,-Megan B.ProVita Online Support

does this need to be refrigerated

Technically no, it does not need to be refrigerated, BUT if you refrigerate any probiotic it will last longer, and be more potent, when you take them.

what are the caps made of, any fillers, are they living, & are they grown on milk?

Greetings, the capsules are made of a stomach acid resistant plant-based vegetarian material. The capsule works to protect the viable freeze-dried probiotics inside. Since the probiotics do not take up the entire space inside the capsule we utilize maltodextrin which are long chains of glucose. Glucose is the universal source of energy for all forms of life and serves as a food source for the probiotics as they establish themselves inside the GI tract.The probiotics are grown on medium that contains milk proteins. The product itself does not contain milk.I hope I answered all your questions!Sincerely,-Bryan T.Helpful Head of Formulation at BioProsper
