Our Experience with Physician\u2019s Choice Probiotics<\/p>\n

Physician\u2019s Choice is a supplement brand that began in 2017. They sell multi-strain probiotics, and we tested their flagship formulation, which has 10 strains and 60 billion CFUs per serving. The brand also sells digestive enzymes, prebiotics, fiber products, women\u2019s probiotics<\/a>, and other general wellness supplements.<\/p>\n

Paige tested Physician\u2019s Choice 60 Billion Probiotic, which she thinks \u201cis one of the best pill probiotics out there.\u201d She\u2019d \u201crecommend this to anyone who wants to help their gut. The serving size is small (just one capsule per day) and I noticed quick results,\u201d she said.\u00a0<\/p>\n

What We Liked\u00a0<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s what Paige rated highly after trying Physician\u2019s Choice 60 Billion Probiotic:<\/p>\n

First impressions (5 out of 5): \u201cThe bottle resembles something that would be prescription but it is purchased over-the-counter,\u201d said Paige. \u201cThe bottle is small and travel-friendly. It could be easily stored in a medicine cabinet. The supplement is measured in individual capsules and is easy to open and close, too.\u201d<\/p>\n

Swallowability (5 out of 5): The pill is what our testing team would describe as an average size capsule. \u201cIt has a soft outer coating,\u201d Paige said. \u201cI really appreciate that they are able to pack 60 Billion probiotics into this capsule and the serving size is very easy to take!\u201d<\/p>\n

Taste (5 out of 5): Paige reported that this pill has no taste or aftertaste.<\/p>\n

Overall experience (5 out of 5): Paige felt great after taking this probiotic. \u201cI didn\u2019t have any GI upset or adverse effects like I\u2019ve had with other probiotics,\u201d she said. \u201cI felt like my digestion became more regular with just a few doses. I would look forward to taking this probiotic to maintain good gut health in the future.\u201d<\/p>\n

What We Would Change<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s what Paige would improve about Physician\u2019s Choice 60 Billion Probiotic:<\/p>\n

Price: At 98 cents per serving as of this writing, it\u2019s not the most affordable probiotic we\u2019ve tested.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Shipping cost: You must spend at least $50 to get free shipping.<\/p>\n

Who It\u2019s For & Who It\u2019s Not For<\/p>\n

Physician\u2019s Choice 60 Billion Probiotic may be a good fit for:<\/p>\n

Professionals who travel frequently and prefer a small bottle with a once-daily capsule<\/p>\n

Folks who want a multi-strain formulation with both Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium species<\/p>\n

Due-diligence buyers who want the assurance of a 60-day risk-free guarantee<\/p>\n

Physician\u2019s Choice 60 Billion Probiotic may not be ideal for:<\/p>\n

Folks who want a specific, clinically studied strain. The label does list species, but does not list strains or the CFU amount for each strain<\/p>\n

Professionals who are sensitive to prebiotic ingredients like inulin, chicory root, or other fermentable fibers<\/p>\n

Budget-conscious shoppers who want the lowest-cost option<\/p>\n

Why the Right Probiotics Matter to Professionals<\/p>\n

Probiotics<\/a> can be a very broad category of supplements, and benefits will depend on the microorganisms it includes, the dose, viability (shelf life), and why you\u2019re taking them. For healthy adult professionals, probiotics are generally considered tolerable for most, though some folks experience temporary digestive symptoms when starting, like gas or bloating. We recommend talking with your primary care doctor or gastroenterologist if you\u2019d like to start a probiotic to ensure it is safe for you to take.<\/p>\n

Fortune\u2019s Final Thoughts<\/p>\n

Our tester had a good experience with Physician\u2019s Choice 60 Billion Probiotic, which provides 10 species across the Lactobacillaceae and Bifidobacterium groups, plus a small prebiotic<\/a> blend. These are common categories of bacteria found in probiotic foods and supplements.<\/p>\n

The label doesn\u2019t list specific strain IDs, meaning the letters and numbers of the strains tested in clinical research. It also doesn\u2019t list the amount of each strain in the probiotic. While not everyone wants or needs to see this level of information, we do think it\u2019s best to talk with your doctor about the best formulation of a probiotic for you and any health conditions you are managing, particularly digestive health<\/a> conditions.<\/p>\n
