Bio-K+: #1 doctor recommended probiotic
Happy Thanksgiving weekend to all our American friends! We wish everyone a happy and healthy start to the holiday season. Remember, a daily dose of Bio-K+ probiotics helps you digest and get the most out of your Thanksgiving dinner (and makes a thoughtful, health conscious Christmas gift too!).
Recent and Upcoming Events
The National Women's Show October 23-25 at the Toronto Convention Centre was a great success, and we will return next year for food, fashion, and fun. We can also be found at the Whole Life Expo at the Toronto Convention Centre November 27-29th. Come say Hi at booth #33, and be sure to catch Doug Cook Registered Dietician and his presentation on Probiotics and Digestive Health on Saturday. |
What's New?
Coming to a store near you
Bio-K+ was awarded an $850 000 expansion loan by the Canadian Government! Though we already have a significant presence through our American retailers, now we will be even more available in the U.S., showing up in pharmacies and hospitals, as well as natural food stores and fine grocers across the 50 states. |

Not all probiotics are created equal
Yogurt makers are feeling the heat for misleading consumers. Probiotics have gotten a bad rap lately due to the advertising claims of yogurt giant Dannon. A lawsuit in the U.S. and an advertising ban in the U.K. are setting precedent for ensuring that companies can back up their health claims. We fully support creating clear guidelines and setting standards to ensure quality products and consumer awareness. We have done our homework! |

We love it when friends drop in!
We have great friends. The fine folks from Naturally Savvy recently dropped by headquarters and toured our manufacturing facilities. Andrea and Randy know how to make a hairnet look good, and a green lifestyle easy. Check out their site for lots of great information on natural and organic living. |

We're certifiable...
Becoming CERTIFIED Gluten-Free will make it easier for all our gluten-free friends to know Bio-K+ is not only safe for them, it can also help ease many symptoms they might experience related to their condition. Did you know that we are also free of heavy metals, antibiotics, pesticides, and hormones, and safe for those with lactose intolerance? It's just great probiotics. |
