Klaire Labs has a strict policy for their distribution network. The biggest reason for their policy is quality control and to ensure proper handling of their product in the entire chain, from manufacturer to consumer. Their probiotic supplements require strict temperature control at all times and I must say I do not trust most of the sellers on Amazon, including this one. I know this above information from contacting Klaire Labs directly, after this seller told me that 'Yes, we have the license requiered for Klaire Labs and other Labs.' along with so many typos in their response (this is just part of it), that a third grader could have done a FAR better job. Heck, a spellchecker would have done wonders.<br /><br />I take Klaire Labs products to assist in some health issues I am undergoing. Given this, and the premium price of their products, I want the best quality and potency of their product possible. I have come to the realization of trying to save some bucks, from an untrustworthy and virtually unknown supplier on the Internet (whom the manufacturer condones) is probably not the wisest thing. I am not associated with Klaire Labs or their sales in any way! Do yourself a favor and avoid Klaire Labs products pedaled from ANYONE on Amazon and be suspect of any other Internet sources. The items could be sitting in the corner of someone's garage, before landing in your hands in into your body. In health...

I have been testing different products that claim to contain live bacteria. Was disappointed to find that some manufacturers (Nature's Bounty, Bluebonnet, Walgreens) are selling fake 'pro-biotics'. The incentive to buy from Klaire Labs, was their specification as: i) powder, ii) amount of 100+ billion CFUs and iii) mixture of 12 different strains. The best established test for ACTIVE Lactobacilli is to give them substrate (warm milk) and let them grow overnight. Test Result: A tea-spoon of Klaire Labs' powder was mixed with a cup of warm milk (37'C) and incubated overnight!. In the morning, the milk was examined for growth and fermentation. There was a clear coagulation, with a fresh smell of lactic acid and great yogurt taste of a 'young' culture (in exponential phase). Conclusion: Klaire Labs' powder contains live bacteria! The bacteria grows well on a regular (low-grade) milk with only a initial pulse-warming of the substrate (milk). The resulted yogurt tasted close to a genuine Mediterranean yogurt. Klaire Labs must be appraised for its honest claims and high-quality product! This IS a product to buy! It motivates investigation of other Klaire Labs' products, with expectation of similar high-quality. Thank you Klaire Labs!

I've been taking this probiotic powder for about 4 months now, in the hopes of curing my CFS/adrenal dysfunction/leaky gut (Yeah, my body was a real mess.). I'm so pleased to report that by following the GAPS diet, taking a few supplements, and taking plenty of probiotics (including kefir and this product), I'm feeling significantly better. I was so ill for over a year that I was unable to leave the house. I couldn't even go for a walk. I was so exhausted and weak all the time. I suspected the problem lay in my gut...and it turns out I was right. The GAPS diet calls for BioKult probiotic, but I intend to stick with this brand, because I think this product is excellent. I can't believe the success I'm having. After eighteen months of suffering, I'm finally getting my health back. I now take daily walks. I can clean my house again. I feel like I've rejoined the living. I can't praise Ther-Biotic enough. If you've got gut issues, this probiotic is for you.<br /><br />Note: Because of the price of this probiotic, I don't take the full dose, which is 1/4 tsp. a day. Instead, I take half of that, and I've still had this remarkable success. It's a good-quality, powerful probiotic and it is absolutely instrumental to my recovery. I definitely recommend.

Our daughter was harmed by DMPS-iv chelation (7 1/2 injections over 11 weeks). It threw her whole gut flora off track, and she became extremely sick for six months (several different bacterias began to grow and cause infections). Then, we found a DAN doctor who immediately put her on 300 billion strands of this probiotic, along with 3 billion saccharomyces boulardii and antibiotics. Now, using this for 9months, she's close to full recovery of her whole G.I. track.

Their &#34;answer&#34; that they use a thermal envelope with ice to mail this is frankly untrue. It arrived with some bubble-wrap in a cardboard box. Frankly, I don't care if it's the middle of August (which it is) or December, this item is heat sensitive and is being shipped. It needs to stay on ice, and no seller should advertise that they ship on ice if they don't. It's false advertising, and I specifically chose this seller over others due to that statement. I returned it.

It has a sweet taste and goes down well. My 2-year old takes it daily (1/4 teaspoon is max amount) and we call it his "special water" he has to drink in the morning before he gets breakfast. We do GAPS for the most part around our house and a strong probiotic (more than 100 billion cpu with 15 strains of bacteria) does the trick. I have noticed a big boost to his immunity since taking this product over the course of 3-4 months. He gets an occasional cold, but it goes away within 3 days.
