Product Information
Acidophilus Extra 25 Billion contains two highly researched strains of bacteria in human health – Lactobacillus acidophilus and Bifidobacterium Bifidus – making it one of the most sophisticated live bacteria products sold in the UK.
Each one of our Acidophilus capsules delivers 25 billion live bacteria, originally isolated from humans, and more at home in our digestive system than the live bacteria in yoghurt.
Our expert Nutrition Advisors. often recommend Acidophilus Extra to customers looking to take more live bacteria in one easy-to-take capsule or those concerned about water or dietary changes when visiting holiday destinations.
To protect these acid-sensitive bacteria from the low pH of the stomach, we've chosen to encapsulate our Acidophilus Extra 25 Billion formula in delay-release capsules. These sophisticated and unique properties ensure the complete release doesn’t start until around 56 minutes after ingesting. The capsules’ low moisture content further supports the live bacteria’s stability, which means it only releases in the small intestine, where conditions are ideal for replicating.
At Nature's Best, we prefer Acidophilus capsules to Acidophilus tablets. Unlike tablets, which are compressed into moulds, create heat, and compromise viability, capsules preserve the delicate 'live' bacteria.
To guarantee our Acidophilus capsules are still viable after swallowing, the bacteria need to be kept alive in a state of ‘suspended animation’. As such, we’ve designed a high-density, moisture-resistant tube to protect the capsules and keep the bacteria viable. That’s why we can promise a 24-month shelf life.
We manufacture and package our formula in UK factories working to Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) to meet our strict quality standards.
Our Acidophilus formula is suitable for vegetarians, not vegans. This product is also suitable for those with allergies since it’s free-from wheat, yeast, dairy, soya, and nuts.

Frequently Asked Questions (2)
Q - "How Much Acidophilus Extra 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 take within half an hour of consuming hot food or drink, heat kills bacteria. Do not exceed recommended daily dose. Food supplements should not replace a balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle.
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.

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review.
We recommend trying a product for 3 months before reassessing how you feel. However, Acidophilus is not known to reduce acid reflux.
