Ultimate Flora™ Extra Care Probiotic 30 Billion CFU¹
60 Delayed Release Vegan Capsules
Ultimate Flora™ Extra Care 30 Billion CFU¹ is expertly crafted to provide digestive support and help maintain your body’s good, natural flora.* This powerful, once daily vegan capsule combines 31 carefully chosen probiotic strains from four different genera – Bifidobacterium, Lactobacillus, Streptococcus, and Lactococcus. These four probiotic genera help reestablish digestive balance for those who experience occasional discomfort.*
Taking probiotic supplements is a great way to support digestive health, and Ultimate Flora™ Extra Care Probiotic is universally trusted for its quality formula.* Formulated with the #1 most studied strain△, our targeted probiotic is specifically designed to support digestive health and a balanced microbiome.* With 30 billion CFU¹ (colony-forming units) in the convenience of one vegan capsule per day, it is a perfect addition for those seeking a reliable, all-in-one probiotic for everyday wellness.*
3-in-1 Synbiotic Support
A synbiotic supplement combines probiotics, prebiotics, and postbiotics for a comprehensive approach to microbiome balance.* Probiotics are live, beneficial bacteria that contribute to gut health and healthy digestion.* But like any living thing, they need the right environment to thrive. Prebiotics act as food for the probiotics in your digestive system; and postbiotics are the compounds produced when probiotics feed on prebiotics (during a process called fermentation).
The Ultimate Flora™ Difference
With 30 billion CFU¹ across 31 diverse strains — including the #1 most studied strain△ — Ultimate Flora™ Extra Care gives you balanced support for a healthy gut microbiome.* Our 30 billion CFU1 formula delivers far more than the 10 to 15 million CFU you’ll commonly find in other probiotics. That means more probiotic potency to support digestive health and overall wellness, in just one delayed-release vegan capsule a day.* It helps reestablish digestive balance for those who experience occasional discomfort.*
CFU is a measure of the number of live and active microorganisms in a probiotic supplement. You’ll find options that range from 1 or 2 billion CFU up to 100 billion (or more!). Ultimate Flora™ Extra Care 30 Billion CFU1 is a powerful formula that delivers 30 billion CFU1 across 31 diverse strains – including the #1 most-studied strain, Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG.△
Multiple Strains, Multiple Benefits
Ultimate Flora™ Extra Care 30 Billion CFU¹ contains 31 different strains of beneficial probiotics from Bifidobacterium, Lactobacillus, Streptococcus, and Lactococcus. Other brands contain only Bifido or only Lacto. Because your gut naturally contains a variety of probiotic strains, a broader mix of B’s and L’s in your probiotic supplement may offer greater benefits.*
Together, these strains provide support for digestive and immune health.*
Microbiome Optimal Balance*
Bifidobacteria, naturally found in milk, kefir, sauerkraut, kimchi and other fermented foods, declines as we age. Bifidobacteria are abundant in the intestinal tract, offering key health benefits and aiding digestion of complex carbohydrates.* Our focus on bifidobacteria, which is less common in supplements, provides balanced microbiome support compared to lactobacillus-dominant competitors. Ultimate Flora™ Extra Care 30 Billion CFU¹ is specially formulated to be high in Bifidobacteria to support a balanced microbiome.*
Delayed-Release Vegan Capsule Technology
Stomach acid can destroy probiotics. But Ultimate Flora™ delayed release vegan capsules ensure probiotics survive the harsh stomach environment and reach the intestines.* Unlike regular capsules (10-30 min release), Ultimate Flora™ Extra Care 30 Billion CFU¹ delayed release vegan capsules release probiotics 75-120 minutes post-ingestion for targeted intestinal delivery.
Guaranteed Potency Through Expiration
Some probiotic supplements guarantee potency and live cultures at time of manufacturing. We guarantee through the expiration date under recommended storage conditions, so you can rest assured you’re getting the digestive support you need.* If you’re not 100% happy with your purchase, we offer a one year money back guarantee.
Trusted Gut Wellness*
We have pioneered superior-quality digestive care supplements based on our decades of experience, helping people achieve optimal health from the inside out. This area of wellness is our sole focus, and we remain dedicated to drawing on our industry expertise and the latest science to continue formulating the high-quality probiotics you need and trust.
Everyone experiences the effects of probiotics a little differently. Probiotics aren’t an instant fix—it takes time to balance your microbiome. And every person’s body is different so results will vary. Make them part of your daily routine and you may feel results in as little as two weeks but generally in around 4 to 6 weeks.*

What does 30 Billion CFU¹ mean?
CFU is short for “colony-forming unit” and, in microbiology, a colony refers to groups of bacteria or yeast growing together. In terms of probiotics, CFU is a measure of the number of live and active microorganisms in one serving of a probiotic supplement.
Though CFU count isn’t the only indicator of a probiotic’s potency or efficacy, a higher CFU count generally means a more potent probiotic, provided it’s manufactured in a way that ensures that the colony-forming units remain active through the product’s expiration.
Renew Life® Ultimate Flora™ Extra Care Probiotic 30 Billion CFU¹ is a great choice for those who want an above-average level of CFUs to provide digestive support.*
How many strains should a probiotic have?
When it comes to the right number of strains in a probiotic, there is no one-size-fits-all answer. Different probiotic strains offer different benefits and what’s right for one person depends on his or her individual needs and health goals.
Some probiotic supplements contain only a single strain, while others have multiple strains. Generally, a multi-strain probiotic supplement, often referred to as a “broad-spectrum” probiotic, can provide a wider range of benefits because different strains can target different concerns. But keep in mind that the effectiveness of a probiotic supplement doesn’t depend solely on the number of strains it contains. It is also important to consider which strains are included (look for clinically studied strains), the CFU (colony forming unit) count, the delivery technology, the potency guarantee and the manufacturing quality behind the individual formula.
Can you open probiotic capsules?
While probiotic strains and CFU counts get most of the attention when it comes to probiotic discussions, what surrounds the probiotic strains is equally as important. Why? Because for the probiotics in any formula to do their good work for your gut, they must reach your gut alive and well. That means running the gauntlet of your digestive tract — including through some harsh stomach acids. And that’s why Renew Life® Ultimate Flora™ Extra Care 30 Billion CFU¹ probiotic capsules use advanced, delayed-release technology. These probiotic vegan capsules protect the delicate beneficial bacteria during their journey to your gut. Bottom line: To get the most from your probiotics, take as directed and don’t open the capsules.
What is digestive health?
Digestive health refers to the well-being and proper functioning of the digestive system. This system is best known for breaking down the foods you eat, absorbing nutrients to nourish and energize your body, and eliminating the rest as waste.
A key part of your digestive system and digestive health is your gut microbiome. This consists of trillions of microorganisms all along your digestive tract. And a diverse and balanced microbiome is essential for healthy digestion, nutrient absorption, and many other aspects of wellness.*
You can promote your digestive health by eating a wholesome diet, staying hydrated, managing stress, and getting regular exercise and solid sleep. At Renew Life®, we also believe that supplementing with quality probiotics can support a healthy gut microbiome and your overall digestive health.*
Who should take probiotics?
Taking probiotics (or any supplement) is a very individual choice, based on a person’s unique needs and health goals. Most often, though, people add probiotics to their supplement regimen to support a balanced microbiome, and support overall digestive and immune health.*
Various formulas containing specific strains can also support immune health.* And others, like those in our Women’s Care line, also support both vaginal health and digestive health.*
How many billion probiotics should I take?
It’s important to keep in mind that with probiotics, more is not always better. Of course, you want to ensure that you’re getting enough beneficial probiotics to have a positive effect on your gut and overall wellness.* But if you take too much before your body has acclimated, you could end up experiencing digestive upset.
For the average person new to probiotics and seeking everyday gut health support, we recommend starting with our 10 or 15 Billion CFU¹ formulas.* If you have experience taking probiotics, you could start with a higher CFU formula like Ultimate Flora™ Extra Care Probiotic 30 Billion CFU.¹ If you have experience taking probiotics and are seeking the most potent formulas we have, try one of our Ultimate Flora™ Probiotic products.
