The Key Ingredient Is: Lactobacillus acidophilus (CUL-60, CUL-21)

Lactobacillus acidophilus is a probiotic bacteria used to help maintain gut microbial balance and gut health.

This formula also includes Bifidobacterium bifidum and Bifidobacterium animalis subsp. lactis, which help support the main ingredient's role in keeping a healthy intestinal environment.
