Découvre pourquoi tu devrais commencer ton aventure probiotiques avec Bio-K+.
Nos formules scientifiquement étudiées sont conçues pour soutenir votre parcours unique de bien-être
Not all probiotics for women are created equal. Bio-K+ is built on more than 30 years of clinical science and proprietary probiotic strains developed to work with the unique complexity of the female microbiome. Whether your focus is daily digestive support, gut flora health, or intimate wellness, our women's probiotic formulas deliver live and active bacteria, potency-guaranteed until the expiry date, not just at time of manufacture. Science as a small gesture. Wellness as a daily ritual.
The female gut is not a generic system. From the fluctuations of the menstrual cycle to the hormonal shifts of pregnancy and menopause, the gut flora of women is in constant, dynamic dialogue with the rest of the body. Understanding this connection is the foundation of everything Bio-K+ does.
One of the most significant discoveries in microbiome research is the gut-vaginal axis: the direct relationship between the intestinal tract and the vaginal microbiome. A healthy gut contributes to flora health throughout the body, which is why supporting intestinal health with the right strains matters for women at every life stage.
Hormonal fluctuations, antibiotic use, stress, and dietary changes can all affect the delicate equilibrium of gut flora. During pregnancy, postpartum recovery, perimenopause, and beyond, these shifts are more pronounced, and a general probiotic formula may not address the specific needs of the female microbiome.
Bio-K+ formulates with purpose. Our Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus GR-1™ and Limosilactobacillus reuteri RC-14™ strains are among the most clinically studied probiotic strains for women's intimate health worldwide. Our broader proprietary blend of Lacticaseibacillus casei LBC80R®, Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus CLR2®, and Lactobacillus acidophilus CL1285® helps contribute to intestinal flora health and digestive well-being for women who want science they can trust.
Bio-K+ offers a focused range of women's probiotics available in Canada, each formulated for a specific need and life stage.
The Women's Health Probiotic Capsules feature L. rhamnosus GR-1™ and L. reuteri RC-14™, two of the most extensively researched probiotic strains for women's intimate health. With 2 billion CFU guaranteed until the expiry date, this SKU is scoped specifically to helping maintain healthy vaginal flora.
The Daily Care Probiotic Capsules contain the Bio-K+ proprietary three-strain blend of L. casei LBC80R®, L. rhamnosus CLR2®, and L. acidophilus CL1285®. Available in 12.5 billion and 25 billion CFU potencies, they are designed to help support gastrointestinal health for daily gut maintenance.
The Bio-K+ Extra Drinkable Probiotics combine our three proprietary strains with functional active ingredients at 80 billion CFU per bottle, guaranteed until expiry. They are vegan, certified gluten-free, and organic. The Extra Drinkables contribute to intestinal flora health, and the Elderberry variant is formulated with Wellmune®, which is scientifically studied for its effects on immune function.
What sets Bio-K+ apart is a combination of strain selection rooted in clinical science, a demanding approach to research, and a potency guarantee you can rely on.
On the science: the Women’s Health Capsules are formulated with L. rhamnosus GR-1™ and L. reuteri RC-14™, two of the most extensively studied probiotic strains for women's intimate health. Together they are supported by more than 60 scientific publications and over 25 clinical trials, reflecting decades of dedicated research into the female microbiome.
On clinical research: Bio-K+'s product range is supported by 16 published clinical trials and more than 45 peer-reviewed publications. Antibio Pro, our proprietary three-strain formula in clinical format, was the first probiotic in Canada to receive a Health Canada claim for helping reduce the risk of antibiotic-associated diarrhea and C. difficile-associated diarrhea in hospitalized patients.
On potency: Bio-K+ guarantees the stated bacteria count until the best-before date, not at the time of manufacture. Our CSP vial technology is designed to help protect potency from production to your daily routine.

Bio-K+ supports a few distinct aspects of women's daily wellness, each tied to specific strains and products. All Bio-K+ probiotics contribute to intestinal flora health. The Daily Care and Extra Line products contribute to digestive well-being and help support gut flora health. The Women’s Health Capsules, formulated with L. rhamnosus GR-1™ and L. reuteri RC-14™, are scoped to helping maintain healthy vaginal flora. The Elderberry Extra Drinkable contains Wellmune®, which is scientifically studied for its effects on immune function.
The best probiotic for you depends on your specific health goals, lifestyle, and life stage. The science of probiotics is strain-specific, which means strain choice matters as much as CFU count. A healthcare practitioner can help you determine what is right for your individual needs, but the guide below is a useful starting point.
For daily gut maintenance, the Daily Care Capsules use the Bio-K+ three-strain proprietary formula (LBC80R®, CLR2®, CL1285®) in capsule format. For vaginal and intimate health specifically, the Women’s Health Capsules contain L. rhamnosus GR-1™ and L. reuteri RC-14™. For an on-the-go lifestyle, Bio-K+ drinkable probiotics deliver 50 billion CFU of our three proprietary strains in a ready-to-drink format. For a plant-based option, the vegan drinkable probiotics offer the same 50 billion CFU in a rice, pea, or soy fermentation base. For women managing diarrhea-predominant irritable bowel syndrome, IBS Pro Capsules feature clinically studied strains and a Health Canada-approved claim for helping improve quality of life in people with IBS-D. For added immune function support, the Elderberry Extra Drinkable combines the core three-strain formula with Wellmune®, which is scientifically studied for its effects on immune function.
Bio-K+ is rooted in clinical science rather than marketing claims. The Women’s Health Capsules contain L. rhamnosus GR-1™ and L. reuteri RC-14™, two strains supported by more than 60 scientific publications and over 25 clinical trials focused specifically on women's intimate health. Our broader probiotic range uses three proprietary strains that we cultivate and ferment in our own facility in Laval, Quebec. Bio-K+ products are clinically studied, and potency is guaranteed until the expiry date. That level of scientific rigour and manufacturing control is what separates Bio-K+ in the Canadian probiotic category.
The timeline varies depending on the product, your individual microbiome, and the health goal you are working toward. Many people notice changes in digestive comfort and regularity within one to four weeks of consistent daily use. For benefits related to the vaginal microbiome using the Women’s Health Capsules, clinical research suggests meaningful changes in flora composition may take four to eight weeks of regular use. Consistency is the most important factor. As with any probiotic, if you have specific health concerns, consulting a healthcare practitioner is always recommended.
The research in this area centres on strain selection. Bio-K+’s Women’s Health Capsules contain L. rhamnosus GR-1™ and L. reuteri RC-14™, clinically studied strains that help maintain healthy vaginal flora. These claims apply exclusively to the Women’s Health Capsules. Bio-K+ does not make claims regarding the prevention or treatment of yeast infections or bacterial vaginosis, as these are medical conditions requiring professional diagnosis and care.
Bio-K+ products use clinically studied probiotic strains with established safety records. Our drinkable and capsule formats have been evaluated in various adult populations, including in research involving pregnant women. That said, pregnancy is an individual journey, and all probiotic use during pregnancy and breastfeeding should be discussed with your healthcare provider before you begin. Your practitioner can help determine which Bio-K+ format and dosage, if any, is appropriate for your specific situation.
