Not all probiotics are dairy-free — it depends on the product. Bio-K+ Vegan Drinkable probiotics are specifically formulated without dairy. They are certified vegan, gluten-free, non-GMO, and certified organic, produced on plant-based protein substrates — rice (Blueberry), soy (Mango), and pea protein (Raspberry). Bio-K+ Extra Care and Extra Care+ capsules are also dairy-free. If you have a specific dairy allergy or lactose intolerance, always check the label on each product.

Some dairy-free yogurts do contain live probiotic cultures, typically added after fermentation. However, the number of live bacteria, the specific strains used, and whether the CFU count is guaranteed until consumption vary widely between products. Bio-K+ Vegan Drinkable probiotics differ from dairy-free yogurt in one key respect: the bacteria in every Bio-K+ bottle are alive and actively fermenting in the product — we start with more than 50 billion CFU and guarantee that count until the best-before date when refrigerated after opening. The strains — Lacticaseibacillus casei LBC80R®, Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus CLR2®, and Lactobacillus acidophilus CL1285® — have been clinically studied and supported by 45+ peer-reviewed publications.

Yes. Bio-K+ Vegan Drinkable probiotics are certified dairy-free, gluten-free, vegan, and non-GMO. All three flavours — Blueberry, Mango, and Raspberry — are dairy- and gluten-free. Blueberry (rice protein base) and Raspberry (pea protein base) are also soy-free. Mango is made on a soy protein base and contains soy. Bio-K+ Extra Care and Extra Care+ capsules are also dairy-free and gluten-free. For allergen-sensitive consumers, we recommend reviewing the ingredient list on each individual product label before purchase.
