Thank you for your inquiry! For optimal storage, it's recommended to keep the product at room temperature below 30 degrees Celsius. The probiotic strain used in this SKU is Bacillus coagulans, and is known for its exceptional heat and acid stability. Studies indicate that over 85% of the probiotics can remain viable in the small intestine for absorption.
According to data provided by our probiotic supplier, the degradation rate of Bacillus coagulans is less than 20% when stored at room temperature. However, for extended shelf life and maximum viability, refrigeration is ideal. Under refrigerated conditions, Bacillus coagulans retains an impressive 99% viability for up to 24 months of storage.
