Questions? or Corporate contact information: (800) 208-0112 How is Align® different from probiotic yogurts? While some yogurts contain bacteria to confer benefits consistent with those of a probiotic supplement, yogurt in the United States is not required to contain any live cultures, and results from tests of yogurt products show a wide range in the levels of live bacteria. The delivery of probiotics in either yogurt or fermented milk is limited by the need for cold storage and an associated shorter shelf life. Additionally, many people may have trouble consuming sufficiently large quantities of these products. Align is different because only Align contains Bifantis®, a patented probiotic strain, available in a convenient capsule form. Also, Align contains only 1 calorie / capsule.
