SBO Probiotics Ultimate
While the use of soil-based organisms (SBOs) provides inherent acid resistance and shelf stability, the product lacks specific alpha-numeric strain designations and uses a proprietary blend that hides individual strain dosages. It is a solid formulation but falls short of the gold standard due to the lack of third-party certifications like NSF or USP and the absence of a 'guaranteed at expiry' CFU claim.
