Exequel
Exequel by Quality of Life is a probiotic supplement featuring a single ingredient: sterilized Lactobacillus acidophilus at 21 mg per serving. Probiotic efficacy is typically measured by colony-forming units (CFUs) and the viability of live strains, neither of which is specified for this 'sterilized' form. The term 'sterilized' suggests the bacteria are not live, which is contrary to the conventional understanding of probiotic benefits that rely on live, active cultures. This product received an N+ Score of 54, resulting in an 'F' grade, placing it in the below-average tier. The formulation's lack of live cultures and transparency regarding CFU count are significant factors in its low score. This product may appeal to those exploring non-live bacterial components, but it does not align with typical probiotic expectations.
