Dosage and Strorage Tips
Dosage
Adults
Start with one adult scoop (0.8 gram, 224 billion cfu’s) of the probiotic powder first thing in the morning on an empty stomach (30 minutes prior to eating). Dissolve the powder in a glass of de-chlorinated water and drink it. Do this ONCE a day only. Stay at this dosage for about 3-5 days.
If you are not happy with the results, raise the dosage to two scoops a day, one in the morning and one at bedtime. After one week go to three scoops a day if you still are not getting the expected results. The highest dosage we recommend is four adult scoops a day. You can always lower the dosage or stop taking probiotics for a few days. You may also visit our Dosage Suggestions section to more info.
Children
Start with one baby scoop (0.1 gram, 25 billion cfu’s) of the probiotic powder first thing in the morning on an empty stomach. Dissolve the powder in a glass of water and drink it. Stay at this dosage for about 3-5 days.
If your child is not getting the expected results raise the dosage to one scoop in the morning and one scoop at bedtime. Stay at this dosage for one week. If you are still not happy with the results go up to 2 scoops in the morning and 2 scoops at bedtime. You can always lower the dosage or stop taking probiotics for a few days.
NOTE:
Every digestive system is unique like a fingerprint. You need to find the dosage that best suits YOU or your child. It may be one, two, three or even six scoops a day depending on age and the desired result. This gradual increase in dosage is a good way to find the optimum dosage.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q. Why are we called Custom Probiotics?
A. We can make a custom blend of any of the single strains that we carry on the website to be added to any of our formulations.
Q. What are Probiotics and how do they work?
A. According to the currently adopted definition by FAO/WHO, probiotics are: “Live microorganisms which when administered in adequate amounts confer a health benefit on the host.” For more info click here. Probiotics are the “good” bacteria that inhabit the digestive system naturally. Antibiotics, infection, bad diet, and stress negatively affect the intestinal microflora. The proper dosage of probiotics will be of great help in normalizing the flora in the digestive system, and hence improve digestive and immune response.
Q. Do your products contain any dairy or gluten?
All of our products are dairy and casein free, hypoallergenic, and do not contain any artificial colors, flavors, preservatives, sugar, gluten, soy or FOS. They do not utilize milk, milk derivatives, galacto oligosaccharides (GOS) or inulin as added ingredients in the fermentation media.
Q. What is the difference between the CP-1 and the 6-Strain powder?
A. CP-1 has 5 strains and is 60 billion cfu’s per capsule at the time of expiration. In addition to the probiotics, it contains microcrystalline cellulose, silcon dioxide and magnesium sterate. The 6-strain powder has an additional strain, L. Salivarius, and is straight culture with nothing else added to it. It is higher in purity and potency with 260 billion cfu’s per gram.
Q. Should I follow a certain diet while taking probiotics?
A. A lot of our clients have Candida, Autism, food allergies and other digestive issues. Therefore it is best to use a sugar-free and natural food diet with a lot of vegetables, fibers, and some fish and chicken. This is because Candida and bad bacteria grow on sugar. Therefore proper diet and nutrition are very important.
Q. What are cfu’s?
A. Colony Forming Units. It’s the bacterial count of probiotics.
Q. How do I know I’m getting the specified amount of cfu’s?
A. We do independent lab testing on our probiotics to verify the bacterial count at the time of sale. Although the count is higher at the time of production, the count on the label is the count at time of expiration, which is one year from the date of manufacture.
Q. What is a good dosage?
A. Dosage varies from person to person based on the severity of their situation. These dosages vary from 25 billion cfu’s per day up to 800 billion cfu’s per day. Low dosage probiotics will have limited health benefits. You will need a higher potency in order to achieve the desired results. Many of our customers have used other probiotic brands with minimal results due to low potency. Click here for more detailed dosage suggestions.
Q. How would I know whether to get 50 grams or 100 grams?
A. It depends on how much you need and how quickly you will go through it. 100 grams is more cost effective. If one uses one adult scoop (200 billion cfu’s) per day of our probiotic powder, 100 grams will last 4 months.
Q. What time of day should I take probiotics? And can I take them with other medications, vitamins or antibiotics?
A. Probiotics are best taken on an empty stomach first thing in the morning and/or at bedtime. A lapse of 30-45 minutes before or after a meal is also recommended. If you are taking antibiotics you should have a 2-hour gap before or after taking the probiotics.
Q. What is the maximum amount of capsules or scoops I can take a day?
A. Dosage varies from person to person. Depending on the condition, if you are taking our Adult Formula CP-1, 8 capsules is the maximum amount to take a day (equivalent to 400 billion cfu’s). If you are taking our powders, the maximum amount is 4 adult scoops a day (equivalent to 800 billion cfu’s).
Q. How long will a 50 gram or a 100 gram powder last me?
A. 50 grams is equivalent to 60 adult scoops. Each adult scoop measures 0.8 grams (equivalent to 200 billion cfu’s). If you take one adult scoop a day 50 grams will last 2 months while 100 grams will last 4 months. We also include a child scoop measuring 0.1 gram equivalent to 25 billion cfu’s. 8 baby scoops are equivalent to 1 adult scoop.

Q. Why do some people get a “die-off” reaction?
A. “Die-off” reaction is due to a “war” between the ingested probiotic good bacteria and the bad bacteria in the digestive system. The more the imbalance of intestinal flora and the higher the dosage of probiotics taken, the higher the “die-off” reaction can be. That is why our dosage protocol is to go up in dosage gradually.
Q. What happens if the probiotics stay out of the refrigerator for a few days?
A. The loss is very minimal. We have done 2 year temperature stability testing on it. We overdesign our probiotics so that the loss will not effect the potency indicated on the label. One can travel with our probiotics for 2-3 weeks without refrigeration. It is best however to keep probiotics refrigerated for optimum potency.
Q. Why aren’t Custom Probiotics enteric coated?
A. The argument for the need of enteric coating is mainly marketing. It is true that in the laboratory one can demonstrate enhanced survival to acidic conditions when you compare powder vs. enterically coated capsules, however the need for that to achieve efficacy is not demonstrated. Our clinical trials have not been performed with enterically coated capsules, however efficacy is noted. Our strains are also pre-selected for excellent acid/bile tolerance and the capacity to survive intestinal transit. And for the last 11 years we have obtained excellent results from all our clients worldwide.
Q. Do probiotics help with parasites?
A. Yes and no. It is best to kill the parasites first with prescription drugs or certain natural foods and supplements. Garlic, papaya seeds, pumpkin seeds, fibers (such as bentonite clay and psyllium husk) are helpful in killing the parasites. A sugar-free diet, junk food-free diet is essential. Normally probiotics are used after parasites are brought under control. Dosage is important. We suggest high dosages of probiotics.
Testimonials

Dear Harry, This testimonial is LONG overdue! I got candida from antibiotics in 1985. Over the years my doctors prescribed Nystatin, Diflucan and other antifungals as well as probiotics. I have tried soooooo many different probiotics over the years and none of them ever re-balanced my system until I started your 6 strain powder in 2008. I had been on fludrocortisone for low blood pressure since 1993 when I got chronic fatigue syndrome. Despite many attempts I could not get off the medication OR reduce the dose. After taking your six strain powder for three days I happened to be at the dentists office where they routinely take Blood Pressure? Mine was 200/100 !!!! Needless to say I never had to take that medicine again. Since that time my white cell count normalized despite being LOW consistently for years. In addition I am no longer sensitive to smoke, trees, or grass. It has been amazing and of course I continue to take your products today. Recently my husband was put on antibiotics and developed candida. He lost about ten pounds. Again, despite going on anti-fungals, he could not gain weight until he started your product. He has taken your new 11 strain powder and is wonderful, regaining all the weight back. I am impressed! We are grateful that you have developed these products that have helped so many people! Thank you again Harry and have a wonderful holiday season. Best, |

My name is Denise. I have been taking Custom Probiotics (6 cultures, 100 grams) since March 2010 to control H. pylori and Colitis. In my opinion it is important to spread the word when a product was designed to help heal your body and IT WORKS. With a control diet and this string of good bacteria you are able to balance your body and live a healthy life (meds free). Congratulations to the manufacturer of such a great product, kudos to all. |

Harry, I am writing to express my thanks for your wonderful probiotics. You sent me both 6 strain and 11 strain and asked me to keep track as to which was better for my body. I take one serving am and one before bed on an empty stomach. Here are the results in one month: lost 5 lbs so far, improved digestion, hypoglycemia symptoms are nearly gone (they were severe), smooth skin, more energy, better sleep, better moods. I know I sound like a commercial but the truth is hard to believe. I am so grateful to you for helping me. Sincerely, Jan C A., |

Dear Harry: Thank you so much for the personalized attention you gave me when purchasing the six strain probiotic powder. It has truly been a lifesaver! Not only am I allergic to milk, gluten and soy, and yours is of course free of all of these things, but your probiotic blend has helped my immune system immensely. I was diagnosed with Lyme disease in 2008 and have been treated since. I know that I would not be able to withstand the antibiotic regimen without the help of your probiotic. I cannot thank you enough! Sincerely, Amy |

I think Custom Probiotics saved my life! I came down with C-Difficile after I was hospitalized with Pneumonia. I came down with a life and death infection of C-Difficile due to the hospital giving me too many antibiotics. My body filled up with toxins and I was in intensive care in the hospital for a month. I was put on Vancomycin and other kinds of probiotics. I kept ending up back in the hospital with C-Difficile when I stopped the Vancomycin. After being on Vancomycin for over 6 months I started taking Custom Probiotics C-Difficile six strain powder formula. I have been on Custom Probiotics for 8 months and off Vancomycin 5 months now. The C-Difficile has not returned, I believe due to Custom Probiotics. The 1st time we ordered it we thought we were going to talk to a salesman, we got Harry. This man who was so informed with my medical condition and his products and he seemed to care more about me rather than making a sale. He said I can help and he did! He had a few do’s and don’ts and thanks to his suggestions and Custom Probiotics powder, I am C-Difficile free. I’ve gained my weight back and I’m strong and feel great. I told my doctors this was the key. I won’t go without Custom Probiotics. Mary Lou |

Hi Harry, I’m a 21 year old female with ulcerative colitis since I was 15. The pain and the discomfort was unbearable and I had flare ups every year and my doctor would instantly put me on steroids and raise the dosage of my medications. After using the CP1 caplets almost immediately I noticed results, the cramping stopped as well as the loss of blood. I am now using the 6 strain powder, 2 adult scoops twice a day and I have never felt better. I even recommend this to friends and others who could be helped by it. I just wanted to say thank you for these products, the results from them are remarkable. Thank you. Sincerely, |

Hi Harry, I am a 51 year old woman who has fought gas, bloating, and constipation for over 40 years. This was due to massive does of iron and antibiotics as a child and teenager. I tried probiotics in the past and spent thousands of dollars on all kinds of products. Nothing worked UNTIL I tried Custom Probiotics. My gas and bloating are almost gone, The constipation I am still working on with your advise. I am taking digestive enzymes and vitamin B complex. I will start juicing tomorrow. I am taking 2 scoops of the powder in the am and pm. The eczema on the back of my hands has almost disappeared! I am after many years of suffering on the right track. I know it will take time but I can see light at the end of the tunnel. I want to thank you for all your help and advise. I will talk to anyone if they have any questions about your product. I am proof that it works. I will be a customer for life.My only regret is I did not discover your product sooner. Please feel free to give my email address to anyone who has questions about how much your product helped me. Yours Sue |

Hello Harry, I want to thank you. After my daughter was on the probiotics for 7 seven days her stool was clear of C-Diff and she is without symptoms. Thanks again, Sherry RN, MSN, FNP-C |

Dear Harry, Thank you so much for the Custom Probiotics with the 6 strains and it worked really well on me! Even though I have had a chronic sinus infection and had to take antibiotics along with it, your product is still working for me and I’m so happy to have found it! All of the other products I have tried gave me constant diarrhea and with this Custom Blend of 6 probiotics for the first time in a long time I am able to have formed stools! I hope this is helpful to know and I appreciate so much all of your help. My daughter does the ordering for me on the computer and we just reordered it. Hope you have a very wonderful holiday and thank you again for having such a wonderful product! With appreciation, |

Harry, I have been on antibiotics prophylactically for 12 years to treat chronic Urinary Tract Infections – symptoms of my UTIs were a burning sensation during urination, and constant urge to urinate (though with little volume as I had recently gone). I thought that the antibiotics were an acceptable (and only) course of treatment, until I started developing resistances to the antibiotics, and the doctors prescribed broad spectrum antibiotics. I had scopes of my bladder done and they ruled out anything physically contributing to it. My doctor just shrugged his shoulders and said, “just take this amoxicillin and hopefully we won’t see you for 10 more years (when you develop a resistance to amoxicillin).” I asked for something more homeopathic, and he laughed and said anything other than antibiotics is “hocus-pocus”. I started taking your custom 6 strain powder in May 2008. I started off with one .8 gram scoop in the morning and one in the evening. On days where the conditions are right for another UTI, I up the dosage to 2 scoops in the morning, 2 in the afternoon, and 2 in the evening, just to be sure. Since starting the probiotics regimen, I haven’t had one UTI. Not one after several UTI’s in one month during the worst of it (and yes, they did test to make sure that they were completely resolved before the next one hit). I had a headache the first day I was on the 6 strain powder, which I sometimes get when I deny my sugar cravings, so I wonder if it was related to the candida die-off. After that, no problems, even at the higher dosages. In fact, I feel wonderful! I am absolutely amazed that this isn’t more recommended for women, like me, who struggle with chronic UTI’s. I feel great! Thank you for your wonderful product! Lisa |

Dear Harry, I have been taking the Custom Probiotic blend of 6 cultures now for six weeks. The results I have received are amazing! I just wanted to send this note to you to thank you for such a high quality product. I have tried many probiotics in the past and believe that your product is truly the BEST! I spent the past year of my life very ill. I’ve had severe Candida and Leaky Gut along with Adrenal exhaustion. I started out taking 8 heaping adult scoops of the 6 culture blend daily. I did this for the first three weeks. I knew I would probably experience severe die off symptoms but was waiting for months for this to happen in my body! I was up to 6 packets a day of the product ThreeLac but never experienced what I did taking your probiotic. My body was FINALLY being cleansed. After the first week I had so much more energy I could not recognize myself! I had not been to a spinning class at the gym in 9 months and was able to start back again! Exercise is such an important part of my life and I am so thankful for what your product has done for me! After the first three weeks I went down to six heaping adult scoops a day. I continue to gain more energy everyday and know my illness is soon going to be a memory!Thank you Harry again for this amazing, high quality product! I will continue to tell my friends and family about you. For all those of you reading the testimonials on Harry’s website, please don’t waste your money on any other probiotics from the Health food stores! I’ve bought them all in the past and NONE compare to the benefits I’ve received from CUSTOM BLEND PROBIOTICS!Forever a customer, Lynnea |

Hello Harry, I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for your amazing 6 strain probiotic blend. I ordered your probiotics for my 4 year old son. He has suffered from severe eczema and a multitude of allergies since he was 2 months old. And recently we have dealt with recurring strep throat due to his lowered immune system. Every doctor and specialist we take him to says the same thing, we have never seen a case of eczema this severe or no one is allergic to everything! All the doctors know how to do is treat the symptoms by prescribing creams and more steroids and antibiotics… After scouring the net I found good reason to believe his problems were due to Leaky Gut Syndrome, compiled by too many antibiotics and steroids. I searched for a product with a high quality and high count formula, I found your site. I called you and you helped me pick the right probiotic strains. I am ELATED to report that after ONLY 1 WEEK on your 6 strain blend of custom probiotics, my son’s skin is clear, soft and not itchy, oozy or rashed!! He has been able to sleep through the night without waking up to scratch until he bleeds. We also changed his diet, eliminated dairy, added digestive enzymes, and herbs to heal his intestinal walls. Life has been normal for him and his eyes are bright and happy. Also, we as parents, are so relieved to find something that HEALS him internally without side effects. I will recommend your product to all my friends!!! Thank you so much, from a grateful mom in Kentucky, Michelle |

Hi Harry, I just wanted to let you know how your probiotics have changed my life. I have been taking the Custom Blend of six cultures for about 3 months now. The results are nothing short of miraculous. I had suffered from candida for many, many years. I had a severe kidney infection twenty five years ago and was placed on an IV of antibiotics for 2 weeks and then for the next 3 years took antibiotics everyday. Needless to say, yeast had overtaken my body. I have tried many prescribed medications as well as many, many over the counter remedies from the health food store including many different probiotics. In one of my desperate searches for help I stumbled across your website and for the first time in 25 years I feel good again. I NO LONG SUFFER from heartburn, bloating,gas, constipation, extreme fatigue, muscle aches, joint pains, foggy brain, depression (I was on anti-depressants for 3 years), weight gain (I have lost 10 lbs since starting Custom Blend), sugar and carb cravings, trouble sleeping, panic attacks and honestly I could go on and on. I believe your probiotics have added healthy, productive years to my life. I THANK YOU and my entire family thanks you! Chloe |

Dear Harry, I was diagnosed with Ulcerative Colitis in 1996. Over the years I tried a lot of natural remedies, including other probiotics, with no success. In October, 2005, I started taking Custom Probiotics 6 strain powder – 3 adult scoops twice a day. Within days my symptoms began improving. In March, 2006, I cut my Asacol dosage in half and in August eliminated it entirely. Today, one year later, I am totally free of all colitis symptoms, take no drugs, and am able to eat foods I haven’t had for 10 years. Sincerely, |

Harry, After years of suffering off and on with irritable bowel syndrome, I became very ill in March of 1999 and was diagnosed with ulcerative colitis. Initially, I was very sick with cramping, bleeding, no appetite and frightening weight loss. Although symptoms would improve gradually throughout the summer and fall, it seemed like I would have another flare each year, somewhere between November and March. Since my diagnosis, I have seen six different gastro doctors and have been treated with steroids and immunosuppresant drugs that probably did more harm than good. I took it upon myself to research my condition and learn as much as possible. I’ve tried countless different supplements and probiotics as well as dietary modifications. Through a lot of trial and error, I believe I’ve found the combination that works for me, and Custom Probiotics’ six strain powdered probiotic blend is a key element. I have tried many different brands, but this is the only probiotic that provided obvious improvement. I told you Harry, if I made it through my “danger zone” flare-free this year, I would write this testimonial at the end of March. I have been feeling much better for many months, but I wanted to be certain I could sustain this state of health. I take one scoop of the powdered blend three times a day. I also take l-glutamine which is one of the few supplements I’ve tried that helped immensely. Other supplements include fish oil caps, Freeda vitamins and Udo’s oil. My dietary modifications include avoiding dairy and all grains, although I cheat occasionally. I also take a digestive enzyme that Harry recommended. I feel better now than I did before I was diagnosed with UC. At my sickest, I weighed about 90 pounds, although 105 was “normal” for me prior to becoming ill. Currently, I’m on a heavy weight lifting program and my weight is now up to an all-time high of 115, which is a healthy weight for my height. Friends and family are amazed at my transformation. I’m amazed. I feel great, and I can go anywhere, do anything, and not worry about whether or not a restroom is close by. Harry, I thank you for your excellent products as well as your support and wisdom. Angela Kirkland |
