Product Information
Acidophilus Extra 10 Billion is one of the most sophisticated live bacteria products sold in the UK. We often recommend this high-strength formula to people balancing busy lifestyles or those concerned about water or dietary changes when visiting holiday destinations.
Each of our acidophilus capsules contains 10 billion live bacteria, originally isolated from humans and far more at home in our digestive system than the live bacteria in yoghurt.
To protect these acid-sensitive bacteria from the low pH of the stomach, we've encapsulated Acidophilus Extra 10 Billion in delay-release capsules. These unique properties slow the capsules from opening, ensuring the complete release doesn't start until approximately 56 minutes after swallowing.
The casings' low moisture content further enhances stability, which means the live bacteria are released into the small intestine, where conditions are ideal for replicating and growing.
At Nature's Best, we prefer acidophilus capsules to acidophilus tablets. Unlike tablet equivalents compressed into moulds, creating heat and compromising viability capsules preserve the delicate 'live' bacteria.
Acidophilus capsules only work if the bacteria are kept alive in a state of 'suspended animation' so they're still viable after swallowing. We use an advanced process to ensure the bacteria remain active in their packaging: we've designed a sophisticated, high-density, moisture-resistant tube to protect the capsules from light and moisture, which keeps the bacteria viable. This sharp attention to detail means we can guarantee a 24-month shelf life.
We manufacture and package our formula in UK factories working to Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) to ensure our strict quality standards are met.

Frequently Asked Questions (2)
Q - "What Is The Difference Between Live Cultures Found In Yoghurt And Supplements?"
Live cultures found in yoghurt and supplements differ enormously. Live cultures found in yoghurt have a short shelf life and they’re also tremendously fragile. And so, by the time the yoghurt reaches your bowel, it’s highly likely the live cultures won’t survive the journey to where they’re needed, your gut. Live culture supplements, on the other hand, tend to be encapsulated in sophisticated, moisture-resistant packaging that ensures the bacteria remains active as they traverse down to your digestive tract.
Q - "How Many Acidophilus Capsules Should I Take?"
A - 1 capsule daily. Take with a glass of water, ideally first thing in the morning when the pH of the stomach is at its highest (i.e., not so acidic). Do not exceed the recommended daily dose. Do not swallow capsules with hot drinks, as heat kills bacteria. Food supplements should not replace a balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle.

I haven’t noticed any changes but no doubt this product takes time to get into your system, and over time will be noticeable. The only thing is by that time you’ve probably forgotten what it was like in the first place. I am happy to take it though as I feel it is beneficial.
