No viable bacteria - not a good option.
My son needs probiotics, and since taking these he has had noticeably more difficult bowel movements. I was suspicious that these sugar-coated gummies which do not require refrigeration and which are very cheap, were not providing enough probiotic bacteria. Then I read an independent study, published on Labdoor which have these gummies a D- !!! Their statement as to why: "This product met all purity standards but recorded 95% less viable bacteria than claimed on the product package." So now I know, these are basically just candies, and have no probiotic value. I won't be buying again.
