Bifidobacterium longum BL-5 is a probiotic strain chosen for its ability to survive stomach acid and colonize the gut.
It can calm digestive upset, promote regular bowel movements, and restore a healthy mix of gut microbes. Many people take it during or after an antibiotic course to replenish beneficial bacteria.
Take one or two capsules a day with food. The bacteria survive best when swallowed with a meal or mixed into a cool liquid. A morning dose with breakfast works well for most.
Most people tolerate it without issue, though mild bloating or gas can show up in the first few days. If your immune system is compromised, check with a doctor before use.
