For essential gut health
There are 60 capsules in the plastic bottle which has a screw top and tamper proof peel off layer beneath the cap. The capsules, one to be taken daily with a drink of water, are in a clear gelatine shell and are easily swallowed.These bio cultures are intensive, with 20 billion CFU per capsule - CFU stands for colony forming unit - the number of live cells.Our gut contains up to 500 species of "good" flora, acting as a barrier to "bad" bacteria, but the delicate balance is easily disrupted.Gut microbiome is relevant to me because it is related to skin health and has been pointed to in cases of eczema where sufferers have been revealed to have poor gut health. But it is also important for digestion, our immune systems, metabolism, sleep, weight and much more.Numbers are not everything, but also the quality of the strains - and these capsules contain two of the most important probiotics, Lactobacilius & Bifidobacterium.They are also slow release and stomach acid resistant.It is also vital to eat plenty of prebiotics - foods that feed the good bacteria in your gut, such as artichokes, garlic, onions, bananas, oats and apples.

Brilliant for the Price - Recommended
This is a very good quality and full probiotic complex supplement with over 20 billion CFU of live organisms per capsule, spread over an impressive 15 different strains - a great one to switch to/alternate with if you've been taking the same strains for a long time or a similar one but with less strains. Both my partner and I have taken probiotics for a years now for the many health benefits of improving the balance of gut health and if you've looking at and considering these then hopefully you're already clear about the benefits and have already researched whether you need to take each of these or not.This bottle contains 60 caps and if you take them at the recommended dose of 1 per day then these should last around two months, which is good value for a decent probiotic like this. I'd definitely get them again as I like to alternate between brands/strains and this is one of the better mixes I've come across.

Excellent
More and more evidence seems to be coming to light about the benefits of probiotics. Whereas individuals started to take them to maintain general gut health the place they have in supporting the bodies immune response is now well documented.My husband has taken bio cultures for a number of years and I can’t remember the last time he had so much as a sniffle, so I started taking them around 18 months ago and the same, not a sign of a cold or any other illness. They are also good to restore the guts normal Flora after a bout gastroenteritis etc.These bio cultures are of a high quality and strength 20 billion is nothing to be sniffed at! This represents 2 months supply at one capsule a day, always take with a cold drink. At £16.99 I think it’s a fair price for what these capsules provide.

They Seem Good
I feel that this type of supplement is one which is beneficial, so have been taking such things for quite a while now. These seem at least as good as any other. At the recommended rate of one per day, this tub will last two months, which seems decent value for money for something apparently so good for you.I like that there's 15 different strains of bio cultures, which adds to diversity if you've been using less before. They're also slow release, which can only be a good thing if you have a delicate stomach. I've not had any adverse effects using these capsules and am happy with them so far. They seem of decent quality and if the price is right, they're well worth consideration.

2 months supply
You are getting 60 capsules in this container and the serving is one daily so this will last you two months. There is no note anywhere of that being suitable for vegetarians or vegans. The ingredients list on the packaging is so small that it is almost impossible to read so that gives no information and the product page is a bit limited so if I were a vegetarian or vegan I would probably avoid. However the range of bio cultures is impressive and comprehensive. The expiry date as well over a year from the time of ordering so there is plenty of time to use this product. I like the fact it is a British meat product I just wish the ingredients were a bit clearer.

A great selection of strains and supportive company
I can confirm that the cultures themselves are vegan friendly, but the shell is gelatine based.I contacted the manufacturer directly and they sent me all the details and they will amend the details as appropriate. My reason to find out, that the strains are good and I normally use them make a yoghurt or just empty the contents into my cereal or smoothie.From the excellent feedback from the company I feel that the product is A–grade and hopefully they’ll have the health benefits as intended. The science behind this mix sounds very good so I’m hopeful.

So far so good, time will tell on the benefits
I've tried probiotic supplements before with no real benefits to show for it but it's been a while so hoping these aid digestive health and reduce bloating and discomfort. After a few days I've seen no changes but aware things take time and will update accordingly. These tablets seem good value at the current price and with a voucher for money off

No need to refrigerate!
These are high quality, high strength bio cultures the benefits of which cannot be overestimated for good gut health. The fact that you don't need to refrigerate these is a big selling point for me. It means I can travel with them. You get a two month supply which works out good value for money. Really happy with them.
