CuratedFit
CURATEDFIT SUMMARY
Passes because each of the seven probiotic strains has its own disclosed CFU count on the nutritional panel, rather than being hidden inside an undifferentiated blend. Calcium carbonate is flagged, not failed, per the CuratedFit Standard's mineral active precedent. No synthetic preservatives or artificial colors are present. Remaining gaps, independent lab verification, heavy metals testing, and confirmed manufacturing location, are transparency limitations, not failures.
WHAT IT IS
A vegan capsule providing 10 billion CFU (colony forming units) across seven bacterial strains, including the Lab4 group (four of the seven strains), plus calcium and inulin. This product was previously sold under the Wellbio name and is now marketed as Probiotis. Vitabiotics states the product uses a stabilising technology that removes the need for refrigeration.
WHO IT IS FOR
Someone who wants a straightforward, well documented daily probiotic without needing to track refrigeration, and who values seeing exact strain by strain quantities rather than a single combined total.

Probiotic strains
All seven strains are disclosed with individual CFU counts rather than a combined figure, which is a meaningfully more transparent approach than many probiotic labels use. Four of the seven strains make up the branded Lab4 group. Manufacturer research claims for Lab4 specifically are attributed to Vitabiotics and have not been independently reviewed here.
Calcium Carbonate.
An industrially manufactured mineral compound. Under the CuratedFit Standard, mineral actives of this kind are flagged rather than failed on natural origin, consistent with how other mineral products in the catalogue are treated.
Other ingredients
Capsule Shell (Hydroxypropylmethylcellulose, Colour: Copper Chlorophyllins, natural source), Microcrystalline Cellulose (bulking agent), Silicon Dioxide and Magnesium Stearate (anti caking agents)
Copper Chlorophyllins
A natural source colourant used in the capsule shell. Not treated as an artificial colour.

CURATEDFIT STANDARD CHECK
Warning
As Natural As Possible
Probiotic strains and inulin are biological in origin. Calcium carbonate is an industrially manufactured mineral, flagged per the mineral active precedent, not failed
Info
Contains What It Claims
Each strain's CFU count is disclosed individually. CuratedFit has not seen independent lab verification of these figures
Pass
Every Ingredient Earns Its Place
No synthetic preservatives present. Capsule shell colourant is natural source
Pass
No Insect-Derived Ingredients
No animal or insect derived ingredients present
Pass
No Proprietary Blends
Strains are grouped under a "Microbiotic Mix" label, but individual CFU counts for every strain are disclosed on the nutritional panel, so there is nothing meaningfully undisclosed
Pass
Allergen Declaration
Made in a site that may handle nuts, disclosed by manufacturer. Gluten free, lactose free
Pass
Sugar Content Declared
No sugar ingredient present. Inulin is a prebiotic fibre, not a sugar
Pass
Artificial Sweeteners and Flavorings
None present. Unflavoured capsule
Info
Heavy Metals and Contaminants
Not addressed on the label. No third party contaminant testing referenced
Pass
Banned Substance Risk Declared
Probiotic strains, calcium, and inulin. No stimulant or hormonal precursor compounds
Info
Country of Manufacture Noted
Not explicitly confirmed on the pages reviewed
TRANSPARENCY NOTE
This is one of the more transparent probiotic labels reviewed so far, mainly because every strain gets its own disclosed CFU count rather than being folded into a single combined total. That level of detail makes it possible to see exactly how much of the 10 billion CFU comes from the Lab4 group versus the three additional strains, which most competing probiotic labels do not offer.
The calcium carbonate flag follows the same logic already applied to other mineral products in the catalogue. It is an industrially manufactured compound, but minerals are evaluated separately from biosynthesized actives like synthetic vitamins, so this is a flag rather than a fail.
The remaining gaps are standard for this product category. No independent lab verification of CFU counts is available, no heavy metals testing is referenced, and the exact manufacturing location is not stated, though Vitabiotics is a UK registered company. None of these prevent evaluating the formula itself.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What does CFU mean?
Colony forming unit, a measure of the number of viable bacteria in a serving.
Why is calcium carbonate flagged rather than passed outright?
Because it is an industrially manufactured mineral compound rather than a biosynthesized ingredient, consistent with how CuratedFit treats mineral actives generally.
Does this need to be refrigerated?
No. The manufacturer states its stabilising technology maintains live culture levels without refrigeration.
Is this suitable for vegans?
Yes, per the manufacturer's stated claim.
Has this been tested for heavy metals or contaminants?
Not that CuratedFit has been able to confirm. No third party testing documentation was available at the time of this review.
Is this the same product as Wellbio?
Yes. Probiotis is the current name for the product previously sold as Wellbio.
Can this be taken alongside antibiotics?
The manufacturer recommends spacing doses at least two hours apart from antibiotics and continuing for a period afterward. This is general manufacturer guidance, not medical advice.
