Why strength matters
Your gut contains tens of trillions of bacteria. For a probiotic to make a real difference, it needs enough beneficial bacteria to have an impact. Most probiotics contain 20 to 30 billion CFU, and while that sounds impressive, it's simply not enough to compete with the bacteria already living in your digestive system.
Progurt changes that equation. With 1 trillion CFU per sachet, it delivers a meaningful dose that can actually reach your gut and get to work.
Human bacteria, not animal or plant bacteria just microbes that intrinsically belong in the human digestive tract.
Most probiotics on the market use bacteria derived from animals, usually cows, or from soil. These strains aren't naturally compatible with the human digestive system.
Progurt uses Human Probiotic Isolates including Lactobacillus Acidophilis, Lactobacillus Bifidus and Streptococcus Thermophilis.
Because they're native to your gastrointestinal tract, they work in harmony with your body to help restore a naturally balanced microbiome.
Survives stomach acid
A probiotic is only useful if it reaches your gut alive. Progurt's high concentration of beneficial bacteria is delivered through stomach acid and into the lower digestive tract, where it is activated.
When to use Progurt
Use it when you need it, not as an endless daily routine.
Your gut will let you know when it needs support. Common triggers include finishing a course of antibiotics, which wipe out colonies of good bacteria, or experiencing bloating, digestive discomfort, food sensitivities orb other types of gut dysfunction. Travellers often use Progurt when exposed to unfamiliar foods and environments.
Once the digestive tract is re-balanced then Progurt probiotic sachets should not be required on a daily basis. How long it takes to restore balance varies for each individual. Some people notice a difference within a few days.
Supporting your gut environment
How well any probiotic colonises your gut depends on the conditions already present. Factors like hydration, mineral content, blood flow, and body temperature all play a role. If you take one or two sachets and don't feel a difference, it may indicate underlying issues that need addressing first.
Progurt has developed several complementary products to improve your gut environment, including Chloride, pH sachets, Immuno Protein, Enzymes, and a specialised Prebiotic. These work alongside the probiotic powder to create the best possible conditions for beneficial bacteria to thrive.

FAQ
How many CFU are in each sachet?
Each sachet contains 1 trillion CFU, which is 30 to 40 times more than typical probiotics.
What makes Progurt different from other probiotics?
Two things. First, the sheer potency delivers enough bacteria to make a real impact.
Second, Progurt uses Human Probiotic Isolates, bacteria identical to those naturally found in a healthy human gut, not animal or soil-based strains.
Do I need to take it every day?
No. Unlike most probiotics that require continuous daily use, Progurt's high potency means you can use it when you need it. Many people notice benefits within a few days.
Does it need to be refrigerated?
No, Progurt doesn't require refrigeration and has a 12-month shelf life. Store in a dry cool place.
When should I use Progurt?
Common times include after antibiotics, when experiencing digestive discomfort or bloating, during travel, or when managing food sensitivities. Listen to your gut, it will tell you.
Can I use it to make yogurt?
Yes, each sachet works as a yogurt starter. Combine it with a litre of UHT full-cream milk in the Progurt Incubator for homemade probiotic yogurt.
Is it suitable for people with allergies?
Progurt is free from gluten, dairy, lactose, wheat, soy, and other common allergens. It's also non-GMO and contains no preservatives. Progurt use can often lessen the adverse impact of dairy, lactose and wheat.
What if I don't notice a difference?
If you take one or two sachets and feel no change, it may indicate underlying gut issues. Consider supporting your gut environment with products like Progurt's Chloride, Immuno Protein, or Prebiotic to improve conditions for the bacteria to colonise.

Progurt sachets come in packs of 2, 5, 10, 15, 30, 60, or 120. Choose the size that suits your needs from the selection options.
