About This Product
Natren's Mega Dophilus is a probiotic supplement featuring Lactobacillus acidophilus DDS-1, alongside 13 mg of Vitamin C per serving, which is identified as underdosed. The product has an N+ Score of 35, earning an 'F' grade and placing it in the 'poor' tier on Nutrienting.com. While it lists 3 total ingredients, its label transparency is 67%, and both ingredient adequacy and formula completeness scores are low, suggesting a lack of comprehensive probiotic strains or sufficient dosages for broad digestive support. Research suggests specific probiotic strains require adequate colony-forming units (CFUs) to exert their effects, which is not detailed here. This product might appeal to those seeking a single-strain probiotic, but its overall formulation and dosage fall short of optimal standards.
