About Probiotics and CFU
CFU, or colony-forming units, is a term often seen in conjunction with probiotic supplements. It is a measurement of viable microbial cells that can replicate to form one visible colony.
Why CFU Count is Important: CFU count is as important as the clinical study it is tied to. Plexus VitalBiome was formulated to deliver clinically demonstrated CFU counts at the time of expiration.
CFU Count of VitalBiome: Contains 7 billion CFU^ from 8 different probiotic strains that help reduce feelings of stress, tension, and nervousness, improve mood, reduce occasional GI discomfort, bloating, and gas, and help improve immune health.*
CFU Count & Expiration Date: While probiotics are live and will adjust during the shelf life of the product, VitalBiome’s label reflects the CFU count at the time of expiration.
Delayed Release Capsule and Why it Helps: VitalBiome utilizes a delayed release capsule that:
- Has been engineered to better withstand the harsh acidic conditions found in the stomach,
- Is shown in studies to take 45 minutes to dissolve while traditional capsules are less than 30 minutes, and
- Protects probiotics from these harsh conditions ensures the maximum number of live probiotics make it to the intestinal tract.
Probiotic Yeast and its Benefits: VitalBiome contains Saccharomyces boulardii, a hardy probiotic yeast that can survive the harsh journey to the intestinal tract where it is shown to support digestive health.
