Product Description

Size: 30 beads

From the Manufacturer

Natrol's BioBeads Probiotic Acidophilus favorably alters the intestinal balance, inhibiting the growth of harmful bacteria and promoting good digestion, immune function, and increased resistance to infection. Most acidophilus products claim a high number of probiotics, but their capsules and tablets simply don't allow live cultures to survive the naturally acidic, harsh digestive environment. Natrol's BioBeads, however, is a proprietary probiotic blend that's uniquely protected by an advanced triple shell that dissolves only upon reaching its destination. The beads' outer layer ensures shelf-stability, the middle layer resists harsh stomach acid, and the inner layer dissolves in the intestinal tract. This product contains no yeast, wheat, corn, milk, egg, soy, glutens, artificial colors or flavors, or added sugar, starch, or preservatives.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good product but don't buy from Discount Vitamins, September 4, 2009

This review is from: Natrol BioBeads Probiotic Acidophilus Complex, Dietary Supplement, Beads, Value Size , 90 beads (Health and Beauty)

I used to buy this in 30 bead packs at Walgreens and was happy with it. I thought it would be great to save money by buying the 90 bead pack. When I opened the package, the beads were brown on one side. I don't believe that Discount Vitamins stored them correctly. Don't buy from them.

3.0 out of 5 stars mislabeled and obviously old, September 3, 2009

This review is from: Natrol BioBeads Probiotic Acidophilus Complex, Dietary Supplement, Beads, Value Size , 90 beads (Health and Beauty)

I like this brand, but it was listed as 90 beads; 30 beads was what was shipped. Also--even though the expiration date was okay, these obviously were old or had not been stored properly because they were miscolored, and some were even leaking.

5.0 out of 5 stars Possibly better than Pearls, January 13, 2009

I just read a report by Consumer Labs on probiotics. Although this product wasn't included, the Enzymatic Pearls were. Since they both appear to offer the same technology, I compared the contents and found that this product has four types of bacteria, including the two contained in the Pearls. Ironically, according to Consumer Labs, the types of bacteria in both products(strains of Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium) can usually survive gastric acids and don't need a coating anyway.
