As already noted, there is an expiration/best by date on the container. The last jar I got off Amazon was only "best" for another couple of months. I went ahead and used it past the date and had no problems with it. I keep an eye on these for sales and such in the stores, too, and the last jar I bought from a store I managed to get one with a longer date. The store only had a few on hand and the other two were set to expire very soon. I believe Garden of Life might be doing away with this line and turning to their "Raw" line exclusively and I think this might be causing a shortage of long-shelf-life jars out there. I will probably try out the Raw Probiotics next time I'm in need due to this. As already noted, there is an expiration/best by date on the container.

Funny to see the "dirt" critiques. It is a soil-based product after all, thus the dirt. I bought some of this locally 4-5 years ago for my dog, and it worked wonderfully for her. Dogs don't always do too well with dairy based products. My wife and I tried it ourselves, and now prefer it above all other probiotic products. Since we can't get it locally, we get it online, order a couple and keep them in the refrigerator. I can't say they've gone bad--but we go through 1-2 a year with no loss of potency. Also, Green Superfoods are great, but are not probiotics. People--get some education; it's great stuff. Funny to see the "dirt" critiques. It is a soil-based product after all, thus the dirt.

I don't recall. This product looked like dirt and had dirt. I discarded it as I wasn't inclined to use it.

Depending on the "Best By" date, it could be as long as 2 years. Check your package for more information.

This is a great product. I have used it for a number of years. If I donor use it regularly then I refrigerate it when I use it.

The package I have received had 1 year expiration date. So, assuming it wasn't very old, the shelf-life of this product is probably 12-18 months.

The shelf life is at least two years for this product. The bottle I have is good until the end of 2014 and I have had it for a month or two.

I don't know what the shelf life is, but I just received a 4pack in October with an expiration date of 12/15.Don't know what type of packaging.

No idea about the shelf life, never even thought about that. Just not really impressed with the product

I don't exactly know the shelf life because we use these flakes all the time and probably run out of them before they ever go bad. I have never had them go bad. We keep ours in the refrigerator as it is yeast, and perhaps that helps it stay fresh longer. This is a really great product. My guess would be that it could last at least 7 months.

Hey Patricia. There is no shelf life. I would just refrigerate after you open the container.

The product's shelf life is 2 years. It depends on how long from date of manufacture until you received it. I ordered mine July 2014, and the expiration date is January 2016.

My husband used this and the shelf life as far as I could tell was over a year because he only used a small amount. I suspect it is a very long shelf life.

I always refrigerate mine. Not sure what the shelf life is, as it doesn't last that long in our home.

no idea - i use it when i buy it. The product is very effective - the best I have found. Who cares about shelf life when you have the best product?

The shelf life is well over a year. This is a product we are going to continue to stock. It does well for us.

I am uncertain of the shelf life. We used one and did not open the other for at least two weeks and it was still fresh.

Hi Sean. You know that is an excellent question; I assume you are speaking to shelf life?. I actually do not know the answer to that. When I purchased mine, I used them right away and never looked to see any dates of expiration.

I don't know what is the shelf life but you can ask the seller, I still have one open in my fridge and the other one in the freezer, they last for ever, I will buy it again when ever I run out, for the price you can't go wrong in my opinion, I really like it, and the smell is really fresh.

Richard, I don't know about a shelf life. This stuff is so good that it is never around here long enough to know. It sure is an outstanding product.

It doesn't have a short shelf life, but I can't remember how long it is off the top of my head. Go to the manufacture's site and contact them.
