Natural Factors Critical Care Probiotic 100 Billion (30 VCaps)

Natural Factors Critical Care Probiotic 100 Billion is a maximum-strength, nine-strain probiotic formula delivering a guaranteed minimum of 100 billion CFU per capsule at expiry (180 billion CFU at manufacture). Formulated for adults with acute or higher-potency gastrointestinal needs, it combines a lacto-probiotic blend (73 billion CFU, 4 strains) with a bifido-probiotic blend (27 billion CFU, 5 strains) for comprehensive support of both the small and large intestines. Shelf-stable — no refrigeration required. Non-GMO, gluten-free, and suitable for vegetarians. 30 vegetarian capsules per bottle. Formulated by Natural Factors, a trusted Canadian natural health brand.

The same trusted nine-strain formula as the Critical Care Probiotic 55 Billion, but at nearly double the potency — with a higher proportion of lacto strains (73B vs. 27.5B) for enhanced small intestine support. Each strain is identified by specific HA strain codes for traceability and has been selected for its natural resistance to gastric acid, ensuring probiotics reach the intestines at full potency. Can be taken any time, with or without meals.
