The package says that it contains one billion live bacteria when manufactured, and provides an effective level of bacteria, 10 million, which they refer to as 1 times 10 to the seventh power, until the best by date, which is about a year and a half away. These numbers are as close to meaningless as can be, in that this is a proprietary supplement, with nothing to compare to it. Try it; if it works, use it. If it doesn't, don't. This is the most recommended probiotic, but that might just mean they give the most (money, free samples, who knows?) to doctors who do the recommending. Had I read Jeanine's response, I wouldn't have posted.

On the package it states: Contains one billion live bacteria when manufactured, and provides an effective level (one billion) of bacteria until at least the"best by" date.

Hi Kenneth...the box says it has 4mg of bifidobacterium infantis. Goes on to say it has 1 billion live bacteria at manufacture, and provides 1x10 to the 7th power ( vs 1x10 to the 9th) until " best by date"

The package says: "contains one billion live bacteria when manufactured, and provides an effective level of 10 million live bacteria by the 'best by' date." The 'best by' date on my most recent package is 3/2015. I recently found Align at Costco, which has the best price by far - $20 for 63 capsules.

None of the Alive products I have purchased have mentioned probiotics nor are they named on the list of ingredients.

no idea. My guess though is no. It is not produced in enough quantity to warrant genetic modification

Not sure about this question. My bottle has 20 billion CFU's. It must be kept refrigerated. I believe it helps my own immune system.

I have the product and just checked the bottle -- it is not mentioned anywhere. As James has suggested, better call the manufacturer.

"Hi! I foolishly didn't read the description" what your mean? Secondly It's a long time since I return this production. So I forgot what I had discripted it. Could you cite it to me? Secondly, I had mail the whole production completely, which part are not absent?

This probiotic contains live cultures and takes 3 years to make. Their website is www. Essential Formulas. com. I found about this probiotic from a program on Tv. called Know the Cause with Doug Kaufman. They promote this probiotic. Their website is www.KnowtheCause.com.

20% glycerine (a sugar alcohol) and 80% water. Both are listed as the inactive ingredients. In other words, it is 100% sugar water and contains no measurable amount of active ingredients. At least they are being truthful about that since by law they can only list what is actually in it, not what was (possibly) once in it and removed through any process, real or magical. 2014 and snake oil is still not only a thriving industry but even being foisted on helpless animals. Yikes.

It has been a long time, but I don't believe there were many in the container. Maybe 5-10 actual people. It is hard to remember, but I do remember not having enough for all the kits I was putting together. Hope this helps!

Doesn't look like it. It contains 12 different probiotic strains, but lactobacillus reuteri is not on the label.

No, it doesn't contain any of those items, it is something different. Go look up some of the research and reviews online.

The bottle states 60 billion. Make sure that whoever you order it from sends it refrigerated. I love this product. You may experience some unpleasant side effects at first but then you will notice a difference.
