We made a batch of cultured dairy with our L. Gasseri Superfood starter, and sent it to be analyzed at the Europhins Microbiology Lab Madison.
Results*:
Live cells per 1 gram of superfood: 2.6 Billion
What does this mean? It means that when you consume a half-cup serving (about 118g) of L. Gasseri Superfood, the numbers need to be multiplied by 118:
A half-cup of cultured dairy L. Gasseri Superfood contains about 306 Billion live bacteria.
For comparison, most L. gasseri supplements that we know of currently on the market, have a count of 10-12 Billion per capsule.
Please note:
While there are numerous general probiotic supplements available at very high concentrations, our analysis relates to the concentration of this one specific strain: Lactobacillus gasseri.
Conclusion:
L. Gasseri Superfood made with Cutting Edge Cultures' L. Gasseri Superfood starter packs about 30 times the punch of most supplements. One cup of this cultured dairy would contain over 600 Billion, the equivalent of many capsules! And it can be used to ferment several subsequent batches. The concentration of this specific strain, together with the ability to referment, make this product very good value compared to supplements (and it's delicious!).
