Back to TopWhich one’s good: multi-strain probiotics, or single strain?
With over 100 trillion microbiomes in our body, we might assume that multiple-strain probiotics are necessary to achieve intended health benefits. Yet, when a product shows a “proprietary blend” of multiple-strains without testing and proving the safety, effectiveness and interactions of each of the individual strains as well as the multi-strain dynamics, claims on what works or doesn’t are unreliable. Responsible manufacturers choose only individual strains of probiotics extensively researched as well as potential interactions if multiple strains are blended, to ensure safety and effectiveness at effective dosage of each strain. That’s why we chose Lactobacillus Casei K-1 for our sho BALANCE vegan probiotics formula, because it has been extensively researched by Japanese scientists and demonstrated to be safe and effective at 100mg (100 billion CFU) per day for at least 2 weeks’ daily, ongoing use.
