Frequently Asked Questions
Q. Why are we called Custom Probiotics?
A. We can make a custom blend using any of the single strains carried on our website and add them to one of our formulations.
Q. What are probiotics and how do they work?
A. Probiotics are beneficial microorganisms that help support digestive and microbial balance. Antibiotics, infection, diet, and stress can negatively affect intestinal microflora. Learn more about probiotics.
Q. Do your products contain dairy or gluten?
A. Our products are dairy and casein free, hypoallergenic, and do not contain artificial colors, flavors, preservatives, sugar, gluten, soy, or FOS.
Q. Should I follow a certain diet while taking probiotics?
A. Diet needs vary by individual. The original page recommends a natural-food diet with vegetables, fiber, and limited refined sugar for customers with digestive concerns.
Q. What are CFU’s?
A. Colony Forming Units. It is the bacterial count used to describe probiotic potency.
Q. How do I know I’m getting the specified amount of CFU’s?
A. We use independent laboratory testing to verify bacterial count. The count stated on the label is the potency specified for the product’s expiration date.
Q. What is a good dosage?
A. Dosage varies from person to person. Start with a low amount and increase gradually according to your response and the guidance on our Dosage Suggestions page.
Q. How do I choose between 50 grams and 100 grams?
A. It depends on the dosage you use and how quickly you expect to finish the product. The 100-gram size generally provides a lower cost per gram.
Q. What time of day should I take probiotics?
A. Probiotics are generally taken on an empty stomach first thing in the morning and/or at bedtime. If taking antibiotics, the original page recommends a 2-hour separation.
Q. How long will a 50-gram or 100-gram powder last?
A. Duration depends on the scoop size and daily dosage. The original page estimates approximately two months for 50 grams and four months for 100 grams when using one adult scoop per day.
| Container Size | Daily Use | Approximate Duration |
|---|---|---|
| 100 grams | 1 adult scoop/day | 4 months |
| 100 grams | 2 adult scoops/day | Approximately 2 months |
| 50 grams | 1 adult scoop/day | 2 months |
| 50 grams | 2 adult scoops/day | Approximately 1 month |
Q. Why do some people experience a “die-off” reaction?
A. Some individuals report temporary digestive changes when beginning probiotics. Increasing the dosage gradually may improve tolerance.
Q. What happens if probiotics stay out of the refrigerator for a few days?
A. Our probiotics can travel for 2–3 weeks without refrigeration with minimal potency loss. Refrigeration is still recommended for optimum long-term potency.
Q. Why aren’t Custom Probiotics enteric coated?
A. Our strains are selected for acid and bile tolerance and for their capacity to survive intestinal transit.
Testimonials
I was very sick with gut Candida, an ulcer caused by H. pylori, and a weakened immune system. After starting the 11-Strain Custom Probiotics product, I began feeling drastically better within a few days.
After using the 11-Strain probiotic for almost three years, I increased the dosage and felt that my body responded positively.
I had years of chronic intestinal problems and repeated courses of antibiotics. After consistently using the 11-Strain probiotic, my bowel movements became regular and the bloating improved.
I ordered the 11-Strain powder for myself and also began giving it to my son. Within about a month, we were encouraged by the changes we observed.
