Compare every Lactobacillus Rhamnosus product across UK retailers on Suppio, ranked by true value - price per active dose, not pack size. Prices refreshed daily.
Probiotic strain well studied for gut and immune health
We rank Lactobacillus Rhamnosus by price per gram of active ingredient - not by pack size - so a bigger tub with a worse price per dose can't outrank a smaller one that's actually cheaper.
Lactobacillus Rhamnosus is a specific strain of probiotic, which are live bacteria and yeasts that are good for the body. This particular type of bacteria is naturally found in the human digestive tract and is one of the most researched strains available.
It is primarily used to support the health of the gut and the immune system. By helping to maintain a healthy balance of bacteria in the intestines, it may improve digestion and help the body defend itself against illness.
To create the supplement, the bacteria are grown in large industrial tanks filled with a nutrient-rich broth. Once the bacteria have multiplied, they are separated from the liquid and freeze-dried into a stable powder. This powder is then placed into capsules or tablets to keep the bacteria alive until they are consumed.
This ingredient is generally mid-range in price. This is because the process of keeping live bacteria stable and viable during manufacturing is more complex than producing simple vitamins, though there is plenty of competition among suppliers to keep costs from becoming too high.
