Oral Probiotic & Xylitol Chewables

Oral Probiotic & Xylitol Chewables is a chewable tablet made for the mouth rather than a capsule made for the gut — one tablet a day, chewed thoroughly, built on a 325 mg Dental Support Blend with 4 billion CFU of live cultures and 5 mg of microcrystalline hydroxyapatite complex alongside it. Thirty tablets, thirty servings, sweetened by the xylitol in its Dental Support Blend.

What you get in every tablet

  • 325 mg Dental Support Blend — xylitol (direct compressible) and guava fruit powder
  • 20 mg 3 Strain Probiotic (Ari), supplying 4 billion CFU
  • The three strains: Lactobacillus salivarius LS97, Lactobacillus paracasei LC86, Lactobacillus acidophilus LA85
  • 5 mg Microcrystalline Hydroxyapatite Complex
  • 1 chewable tablet per serving, 30 servings per container
  • Vegan, gluten free and non-GMO
  • The blend is declared as a blend, so the panel gives 325 mg as a total rather than separate figures for the xylitol and the guava. No Daily Value is established for any row.

About the blend

Xylitol is a sugar alcohol — a sweetener roughly as sweet as table sugar, with a faint cooling note on the tongue. "Direct compressible" describes the grade: xylitol made in a form that can be pressed directly into a tablet. That's how xylitol ends up as both a sweetener and part of the tablet itself; the flavour also draws on the natural flavors listed separately under other ingredients.

Guava fruit powder is exactly what it says — the fruit of the guava, dried and milled to a powder.

About the cultures

Live cultures are counted in CFU, colony-forming units: a count of viable cells rather than a weight. Here 20 mg of the three-strain Ari culture supplies 4 billion CFU. All three are Lactobacillus species, and each is named down to its strain code — L. salivarius LS97, L. paracasei LC86 and L. acidophilus LA85. That level of detail is worth looking for on any probiotic. "L. acidophilus" alone names a species; LA85 names the particular strain that was cultured.

About the hydroxyapatite

Hydroxyapatite is the mineral that the hard structure of teeth and bone is built from, and the microcrystalline complex is that same mineral in fine crystalline form. There's 5 mg of it in every tablet.

How it tastes and how it's taken

Xylitol sweetens it and natural flavors are on the list; the panel doesn't name a flavour. Chew it thoroughly rather than swallowing it, so the ingredients spend time in the mouth, and use it after meals. Beta-cyclodextrin, natural flavors and magnesium stearate are the only other ingredients.

Who it's for

Anyone interested in the oral microbiome who'd rather chew one tablet than add a rinse or another capsule to the routine, and anyone who already brushes and flosses and wants something simple on top of it.

How to use it

As a dietary supplement, adults chew one (1) tablet daily. Chew thoroughly before swallowing to allow the active ingredients to interact with the mouth and teeth. Do not swallow whole. For best results, use after meals or as directed by a healthcare professional.

Other ingredients

Beta-Cyclodextrin, Natural Flavors, Magnesium Stearate.
