15 Balanced Strains
Crafted with 15 strains in a balanced formula reflective of a healthy gut microbiome.

Guaranteed to contain 50 billion live colony forming units (CFUs) – right up to expiry.
Strains are triple-cleaned in a temperature- and humidity-controlled environment to ensure that only the heartiest and healthiest strains remain.
Targeted Delivery
Our strains are put into a vegan, plastic-free, delayed-release capsule to ensure that they pass through the stomach acid, reaching the gut where they thrive.
A human clinical study found that these capsules make it to the small intestine 45 minutes after standard capsules (1) and deliver up to 10x the bacteria to the gut (2).
Free from Allergens
Vegan, non-GMO and free of allergens like eggs, dairy, mustard, peanuts, seafood (fish, crustaceans, shellfish), sesame, soy, sulphites, tree nuts, wheat and gluten.
No Refrigeration Required
Shelf-stable, with potency guaranteed right up to expiry.
GUARANTEED 50 BILLION CFU AT EXPIRY. 125 BILLION CFU AT MANUFACTURE
What is the CFU count at manufacturing?
We want to make sure you are getting a potent product right up until the expiry date. That’s why each capsule contains 125 billion at the time of manufacturing. This overage ensures we remain at label claim or better at expiry.
How do I know if the 50 billion is right for me?
We recommend going with a higher CFU during states of high stress, digestive complaints, or during times when antibiotics are used, but beyond that, do what feels best for you! Some people feel great taking 15 billion, while others like to “go big” with the 50 billion.
When is the best time to take this while on antibiotics?
The NNHPD monograph on probiotics requires labelling to include directions to take probiotics 2-3 hours before or after taking antibiotics, as you see on our packaging.
Could this be recommended for someone with IBS?
Although advanced gut health probiotic might be helpful for a variety of medical conditions, including irritable bowel syndrome, it was not designed specifically for this. However, probiotics can be very helpful for IBS and we expect the same would hold true for advanced gut health probiotic. If you have IBS we recommend that you consult with your health care practitioner to determine if this product is suitable for you.
Are probiotics OK for people with SIBO?
There is some, not a lot, but some research showing that probiotics can actually help with SIBO. It could be that they reset the proper motility of the small and large intestines, making it difficult for the bacteria to set up their camps in the small intestines…or it could be that probiotics actually displace the less-desirable, gas-producing bacteria from the small intestine. If you have SIBO we recommend that you consult with your health care practitioner to determine if this product is suitable for you.
