Is it possible to consume too many probiotics?
We have found no research to suggest that you can overdose on probiotics or cause a gut imbalance by ingesting too many. Our dosage upon consumption is 20 billion CFUs* and we know of prescription probiotic products that have doses over 450 billion CFUs with no negative or side effects. What your body doesn’t use is passed through with the rest of your food waste. If you are new to probiotics and drinking a phd product, we suggest taking half a dose at a time (½ packet or ½ beverage) for the first day or two to ease your body into it. *CFUs = colony-forming units – which is how probiotic dosages are measured.
