Frequently Asked Questions
Probiotics are beneficial microorganisms, usually bacteria or certain yeasts, that help support the natural balance of microbes in your body, especially in the digestive tract. There are many things that can throw off the bacterial balance in your gastrointestinal microbiome like environment, diet, and certain medications. This imbalance can lead to digestive upset and impact overall wellness.
Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG is one of the most extensively studied probiotic strains. In nearly 2,000 scientific studies, including over 300 human clinical trials, it has been shown to help restore the balance of the microbiota.* Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG has been demonstrated to survive harsh stomach acids to get the probiotics where they’re needed in the intestines.*
We are committed to providing safe, effective, and clinically proven strain in our products that help nurture your family’s well-being from within. Whether it’s supporting digestive & immune health or promoting overall wellness, Culturelle® Probiotics is your partner in creating a foundation of good health for the babies, kids and adults in your life.
We absolutely recognize the need for fiber supplementation for kids and have 2 products available.
Culturelle® Kids Probiotics + Fiber Packets are formulated with 2.5 billion CFUs of the clinically studied probiotic strain, Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG plus 3.5 grams of fiber naturally sourced from wheat, fruit and vegetables. This safe formula is designed to work naturally with your child’s body to promote regularity and healthy digestion.*
We also offer Culturelle® Kids Probiotic + Veggie Fiber Gummies which are a yummy berry flavor your little ones will love and formulated to promote a healthy balance of good bacteria in your kid’s gastrointestinal microbiome.*
From birth, a child’s gut microbiome starts developing, influenced by factors like diet, environment, and antibiotic use. This intricate community of microorganisms is essential for digestion, immune response, and even neurological development.
Some key benefits of probiotics for kids include:
- Maintaining a Healthy Digestive System: Probiotics help balance gut flora, which is important for supporting proper digestion.
- Nurturing and Supporting Immune Health: With a significant portion of the immune system located in the gut, a balanced microbiome plays a key role in supporting the immune system to function at its best.
- Boosting Nutrient Absorption: Probiotics help nutrient absorption from food, which is vital for growth and development.
Probiotics are beneficial bacteria that help support a healthy balance of microorganisms in the body. They can help maintain digestive health and support vaginal, urinary, and immune health by helping restore and maintain the balance of good and non-beneficial bacteria.*
Culturelle® Women’s 4-in-1 Protection Daily Probiotic is a unique blend of proven prebiotics and probiotics designed specifically for women. It combines the proven effective probiotic strain, Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG, and the four powerful lactobacilli most dominant in healthy women. This supplement is powered by a unique blend of proven prebiotics and probiotics designed for a woman’s specific needs, to support vaginal, urinary, digestive and immune health.*
CFUs are important because they indicate how many live and active microorganisms are in each supplement. CFU is the only unit of measure that accurately provides the number of live and active bacteria that are in the product, and this is directly linked to the efficacy of the probiotic in providing the intended health benefit.
The ideal amount of CFUs for a certain strain is that which has been clinically shown to lead to the desired health benefit. Different amounts are effective for different health outcomes, from gut to immune to feminine health. It's best to consider why you're taking a probiotic and pick a supplement with a CFU count clinically validated to support your desired health benefit.
To understand why daily use of Culturelle® Probiotics is so important, you first need to understand exactly how the proven probiotic strain works. Many of our probiotic products contain one of the most studied probiotic strains, Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG. It has been scientifically shown that this probiotic strain can survive harsh stomach acids to make their way to your intestines where it helps establish a good balance of beneficial bacteria within your body.
If for some reason you decide to halt your use of Culturelle® probiotics, the barrier in your intestines that was built up by the Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG may begin to breakdown. As a result, the good and non-beneficial bacteria in your digestive tract will no longer be balanced. So to maintain its’ benefits, it’s best to continue taking them daily.
Taking Culturelle® probiotics everyday may help with occasional digestive upset. It is safe for daily, long-term use. The best part is that taking Culturelle® probiotics is easy with options like one Digestive Daily Capsules per day to receive 10 billion CFU (colony-forming units) of Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG, a proven probiotic strain. You can take it any time of the day, with or without food, and if you prefer, you can even open up the capsule and mix the probiotics in any cold food or beverage.
Once you begin your daily regimen of Culturelle® probiotics, you can look forward to digestive and immune health support in as soon as 48 hours. That’s about how long it takes Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG to get to work building the strong barrier in your intestines to balance out the non-beneficial bacteria. However, you should be aware that when first starting a probiotic, your gut microbiome adjusts and therefore, you may experience minor bloating, gas or intestinal gurgling which should subside with continued use. If these symptoms continue after two weeks, consult your healthcare professional.
"My son started taking this for stomach issues and said it made a huge difference for him. I bought a box and take it daily. It's the first time in over 30 years I haven’t had stomach problems. I've tried elimination diets and medications without success. I have gone 2 months feeling healthy and not worrying about getting sick. I have recommended this product to others because it has improved my quality of life tremendously."

I took 2 a day a few days before and during my vacation and had zero sudden needs to run to the bathroom. What a relief. I will take one Culturelle® every day moving forward. It really works to keep the bacteria in the gut healthy. I am a fan."
