Probiotic miracle works great for my diabetic fur baby. I give him less than the suggested amount or it gives him real soft poops. He has not had a UTI since being DX with diabetes and that was 2 years ago. It says on the website it is made in the USA. I like it because it doesn't have many inactive ingredients (fillers) in it. It doesn't upset his stomach either. I live in Florida so I do keep it in the refrigerator. Go to Nusentia.com for further answers. There you can contact them. I tried the Mercola probiotic and my diabetic baby did awful on it. He got a stomachache and started to eat grass to vomit. To many fillers in the Mercola probiotic. I also give probiotic miracle to my other fur baby. But beware you give to much and it will give them the poops because it does have inulin in it. I give my 25 pound dog (diabetic) a little less than an 1/8 of a tsp. 2x a day and my 7 pound dog 1/2 of an 1/8 of a tsp. in each bowl of food. I home cook for my guys, they get no dog food. I also supplement with Nupro, omega 3 oil, vitamin E, and brewers yeast with garlic. I put no poison on my guys either and no vaccines ever again for my guys. Over vaccinating is killing our fur babies. Good luck!!!

While this question might be better answered by the company itself (Nusentia is the company name, add a dot com), according to the packaging: "2 billion CFU per serving is guaranteed at expiration of product. Probiotic Miracle contains stable strains of the bacteria and may be stored at room temperature without loss of efficacy." I will suggest that if you buy, dig deep for the serving/measuring spoon. I was distributing it in pinches until I found the spoon, buried deep in the product. It does not say it is made in the USA but it is distributed out of San Juan Capistrano, CA. Hope this helps.

Whoops! Gave you the info off the Enzymes container. The Probiotics container says:Distributed by: Mercola Health Resourses, LLC 3615 Exchange Ave. Aurora, IL. 60504 847-252-4355 You could contact them and ask any other questions. I don't see anything else on the container, but I've also been using it on my Max and he is doing well on it. Sorry, I first grabbed the wrong container for info.

I don't know for sure but would assume since it's a high quality product. I have been very happy with it. I've used other probiotics and can tell that it works better.

We actually sell this product directly out of our New Life Vitamins warehouse. The probiotics are kept refrigerated here until shipping out to customers. When shipped we send them priority mail with an ice pack in the package. We are not exactly sure how Amazon stores their live probiotics but this is our process here at New Life Vitamins.

Hi Sam, before starting on a probiotics regimen, I read a lot. One of the articles I read is this http://www.health.harvard.edu/fhg/updates/update0905c.shtml. I am sure you will find plenty online. Just a caveat, I am not a MD or a biochemist or a professional in the the are, but let me tell you my experience. I started taking probiotics and I noticed after 10 days improvement on the issues I had. After finishing the first bottle, I did not buy or take another pill for a couple of weeks. The issues resumed, and I quickly bought a larger bottle this second time around. As for choosing this brand, I bought it based on its reviews and its high number of CFU's. I hope that helps.

No. The ingredients other than the long list of probiotic bacteria are: vegetarian capsule (hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, water), InTactic proprietary polysaccharide complex and L-leucine I hope this helps?

I called the company today and asked where their ingredients were sourced and who manufactures them since the container says "Manufactured for". The manufacturer is "Proprietary information", and while they stated they conduct stringent testing, they could not guarantee that any of the ingredients are NOT sourced from China.

You are right, it does not say the word Probiotic but it is a probiotic. The back of the box says: "Contains guaranteed amounts of live active cultures. Proven to promote intestinal health & balance. Nutritional supplement for dietary management of cats with diarrhea. Promotes a healthy immune system.And if that's not enough. There is a number to call for any questions at Ask Purina: 1-800-879-1266 M-F 9am to 4:30pm CT

Hello, Thank you for contacting Swanson Health Products! We are happy to help! We do not ship probiotics refrigerated. However, please be assured that when a manufacturer formulates a probiotic, they are aware that the product will not be able to be refrigerated 100% of the time. The manufacturer knows that products will not be shipped refrigerated, therefore there is a very decent amount of time allowed so that a product can be shipped and still exceed its potency. We ship the products to our customers, exactly how we receive them. Please also be assured that this product is stored at our Swanson facility under refrigeration at all times. As long as your product is sealed and not in direct sunlight, its potency and integrity will not be compromised. We hope this information is helpful! If there is anything we can do to further assist you, please let us know. Our quality, value and customer service have made Swanson Health Products a trusted source of nutritional supplements since 1969. To help us build this privileged relationship with you, we welcome your comments and suggestions, as it is our pleasure to serve you at any time. Sincerely, Kimberly B. Swanson Health Products Customer Account Specialist

I recommend you go to Ulitmate FLora's web site for info on names of strains. I believe as long as the item is refrigerated, the probiotics are live. Overall, I think Ultimate Flora is the best brand of probiotics.

10 billion cells is correct. I strongly recommend keeping the box in the refrigerator to maintain the potency. Culturelle and Align are probably the two most recommended by everything I have read about the probiotic craze. Align has a higher cost with hardly every any discounts or coupons. Your best bet is on Amazon with the double box deal. One each morning will keep your gut on track! Even my Primary G.I. Doctor uses Culturelle.

No, that's why I take a probiotic, too. I take Primal Defense Ultra, made made by Garden of Life. But, there are many out there to choose from.

I don't think they should be different. Are you sure what you're seeing is exactly the same product? There are a couple of versions in strength level of PD. There could also be an updated version. And the many strains of probiotic organisms contained might change in a newer version - there are a lot of them in PD, and countless varieties to choose from. So theoretically they could have changed the formulation. I would trust it in any case - a very reliable company, impeccable in business dealings as well as quality of products. Another possibility is that Amazon is not putting the right pictures together on the page showing them. Sorry I can't answer better than that. It's a mystery! But no doubt Garden of Life would be the people to call, and while you're describing the discrepancy on the phone, you can direct them to the link/page so they can see it too.

I really do not know. Our dog was real healthy and she died a natural death at the age of 14. We always fed her Premium Edge and she had no health problems. The label should tell if it contains probiotics. Sorry I could not be more help.

No, per the supplement facts...just pure probiotics which are bacteria that help maintain the natural balance of organisms in the intestines. There are 50 live cultures per capsule with 10 biotic strains. Contains no wheat, gluten, soy, dairy, eggs, shellfish, tree nuts, or artificial ingredients. Storage (keep in refrigerator) and handling conditions may vary, and may affect the total amount of cultures delivered at consumption.
