What is the loss in potency when Fem-Dophilus is shipped un-refrigerated?
The loss of potency during un-refrigerated shipment depends on 1) the amount of time in transit and 2) the ambient temperature during shipment. In the summer months, there will be a greater loss of potency during shipment than in the winter months. We safeguard against loss in potency by shipping the Fem-Dophilus with ice-packs (during the summer months) and shipping to our retailers via 2-Day Air (UPS or FEDEX). Also, Fem-Dophilus bottles are packaged in a low-moisture facility and have a moisture desiccant added to each bottle, so these processes assist in further protecting against potency loss due to moisture exposure. Can I take Fem-Dophilus long-term? Yes, Fem-Dophilus is safe when taken long-term. Is Fem-Dophilus the best product choice for yeast infections (Candida albicans)? Fem-Dophilus helps to protect the vaginal tract from invasive organisms. Also, another Jarrow Formula’s product which helps to protect the vaginal tract from invasive organisms is Saccharomyces boulardii +
