Our cherry-flavored Complete Probiotics Gummies are a tasty way to benefit from 5 Billion CFUs of Bacillus subtilis, a strain of gut-friendly bacteria shown to help your body break down food, absorb nutrients and support a healthy immune system.

If you're new to probiotics, starting with the 70 Billion CFU formula is recommended. You may then move up to the 100 Billion CFU formula if you find you need additional support after a few weeks. The 100 Billion CFU is a higher-potency formula and is ideal for advanced digestive and immune health and may be taken long-term. Both formulas are shelf-stable and travel friendly, requiring no refrigeration.

Even if you eat fermented vegetables or yogurt, adding a probiotic supplement can still be beneficial. Complete Probiotics formulas provide 10 diverse, high-quality strains that may not be found in fermented foods alone.

By supplementing with probiotics, you ensure consistent and effective support for your gut health beyond what these foods provide.
