Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Bio-K+ Extra Probiotic Supplement line?

The Bio-K+ Extra line is a collection of vegan probiotic supplements designed for those who want more from their daily probiotic. Each bottle delivers 80 billion live and active bacteria from three exclusive patented strains — Lacticaseibacillus casei LBC80R®, Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus CLR2®, and Lactobacillus acidophilus CL1285® — fermented on an oat and pumpkin seed protein base. Beyond this advanced probiotic base, each flavour pairs a science-backed active ingredient with a targeted function: Wellmune® (Elderberry) is scientifically studied for its effects on immune function; Cereboost® (Peach & Turmeric) is scientifically studied for its effects on cognitive function, performance and working memory; Cyracos® (Lemon & Ginger) is scientifically studied for its effects on restlessness and nervousness.* The Extra line is vegan, and available in certified organic and Non-GMO Project Verified options — made in Canada.

How does the Extra line differ from the Everyday Wellness line?

The Everyday Wellness line provides 50 billion CFU per bottle and may help promote digestive and immune health* — a solid daily probiotic supplement for those building a gut wellness routine. The Extra line goes further in two ways. First, it delivers 80 billion CFU — 60% more live and active bacteria per serving. Second, each Extra flavour adds a clinically studied active ingredient formulated for a specific function beyond gut flora support. If you’re an established probiotic user looking to go the extra mile for immune, cognitive, or stress support, the Extra line is designed for you.*

What is Wellmune® and what is it studied for?

Wellmune® is a patented natural ingredient derived from the cell walls of a proprietary strain of baker’s yeast. Its active component — beta-1,3/1,6 glucan — is one of the most researched natural food ingredients on the market. Wellmune® is scientifically studied for its effects on immune function.* It is the active ingredient in the Bio-K+ Extra Elderberry probiotic supplement, paired with our 80 billion CFU probiotic base.

Cereboost® is the active ingredient in the Bio-K+ Extra Peach & Turmeric probiotic supplement. It is scientifically studied for its effects on cognitive function, performance and working memory.* Cyracos® is the active ingredient in the Bio-K+ Extra Lemon & Ginger probiotic supplement. It is scientifically studied for its effects on restlessness and nervousness.* Both ingredients are combined with our 80 billion CFU probiotic base and clinically studied strains to deliver a targeted dual-function supplement.*

How many CFU are in the Bio-K+ Extra probiotic supplements, and why does it matter?

Each Bio-K+ Extra bottle contains 80 billion live and active bacteria — and that count is guaranteed until the best before date, not just at the time of manufacturing. CFU stands for Colony Forming Units, a measure of viable bacteria in a probiotic supplement. Many products state high CFU counts at manufacturing but allow significant die-off before you ever open the bottle. With Bio-K+, the 80 billion CFU guarantee means you get what the label promises — right up to the last day.*
