Jarro-Dophilus Probiotics
Jarro-Dophilus Probiotics products from Jarrow contain a blend of popular and important probiotic strains, making them best suited for a general purpose.
The Jarro-Dophilus line consists of products that require refrigerated storage and products that stay good outside the refrigerator. We store the "refrigerated products" in our warehouse in a refrigerator and ship them with a cooling element or in a Coolbox.

About refrigeration and shelf life
Many Probiotics today are made so that they no longer need to be kept refrigerated. This has advantages and disadvantages.
The big advantage, of course, is that it does not have to be refrigerated. The disadvantage is that it requires additional substances and processing to protect the bacteria, and that usually has a significant impact on the price.
There are two times during the "life stage" of the product that refrigeration is an issue:
1. during transportation from the supplier in the US to the EU
2. during transport from the store to the customer
Not much can be done about problem 1. In principle, refrigerated shipping would be possible, but that increases the cost enormously (think possibly as much as 10 euros per jar).
Problem 2 is largely solved by Smeets & Graas by shipping the products with a cool pack and in insulating film.
This is not a 100% coverage solution because it sometimes takes longer for a product to be delivered and the outside temperature also plays a role. Thus, a package may arrive at the customer's door non-cool.
Solution for temporary non-cooling
Jarrow knows this problem and knows that it is basically impossible to solve. To prevent customers from receiving non-working products, another solution has been devised:
In production, many more Bacteria are put into a capsule than the label states (50 billion). The exact number varies by production batch but ranges from 100 to sometimes as much as 250 billion.
This means there is no problem with bacteria dying during a period of non-refrigeration. With these numbers, there will always be enough left, even at the end of a shelf life.
Lactobacillus bacteria
Lactobacillus bacteria are naturally found in the human digestive tract and urinary tract. Foods that have been fermented, such as yogurt, contain these bacteria. The most well-known Lactobacillus bacteria are Lactobacillus acidophilus, Lactobacillus bulgaricus, Lactobacillus rhamnosus, Lactobacillus plantarum and Lactobacillus caseï.
Lactobacillus acidophilus
Lactobacillus acidophilus is often used in the preparation of some types of yogurt. The bacteria occur naturally in the mouth, gastrointestinal tract and vagina.
Lactobacillus rhamnosus
Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG (LGG) is a probiotic strain developed by Gorbach and Goldin (GG) that occupies a unique place among probiotics. Unlike many of the other strains, rhamnosus is the only strain that comes from the human gut and therefore not from cow's milk. The efficacy of Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG has been extensively studied.
Lactobacillus casei
Lactobacillus casei occurs naturally in the mouth and small intestine. Lactobacillus casei is one of the most widely used bacterial species as probiotics.
Lactobacillus helveticus
Lactobacillus helveticus is a strain very closely related to acidophilus. It is known through its use in that production of Swiss and Emmental cheese, as well as in various types of fermented milk types.
Lactobacillus jensenii
Lactobacillus jensenii is found in the vagina. Lactobacillus jensenii is about 20% of all vaginal microflora.
Bifidobacterium
Bifidobacteria is the most abundant bacteria in our intestines (90%). Already a few days after birth, our intestines are colonized by it. The most famous Bifidobacteria are Bifidobacterium bifidum, Bifidobacterium lactis, Bifidobacterium longum, Bifidobacterium thermophilum and Bifidobacterium pseudolongum.
Saccharomyces boulardii
This is also known as S. Boulardii, the only yeast probiotic.
