Learn why you should start your probiotics journey with Bio-K+
Our scientifically proven formulas are designed to support your unique health journey
Bio-K+ probiotic products help support gastrointestinal health, and the Elderberry Drinkable with Wellmune® pairs them with an ingredient scientifically studied for its effects on immune function. Backed by more than 30 years of research, Bio-K+ combines proprietary strains with functional ingredients that each carry their own dedicated body of research.
A quality probiotic rests on three signals: named bacterial strains with registered trademark codes, functional ingredients with their own dedicated research, and targeted-release technology that helps protect live bacteria through stomach acid on the way to the gastrointestinal tract. Bio-K+ features three exclusive proprietary strains validated in 16 published clinical trials and referenced in 45+ peer-reviewed publications.
Wellmune® is a natural yeast beta-glucan derived from the cell wall of baker's yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae). It is a patented functional ingredient with its own dedicated body of research, distinct from the probiotic strains it is combined with. Wellmune is scientifically studied for its effects on immune function.¹
Bio-K+ Extra Drinkable Vegan Elderberry with Wellmune® combines 80 billion CFU of three exclusive proprietary strains with Wellmune® in a fermented oat and pumpkin seed base with elderberry powder. Vegan, certified organic, gluten-free, and GMO-free, it is available across Canada. The drinkable base contributes to intestinal flora health, while Wellmune is scientifically studied for its effects on immune function.¹ CFU is guaranteed until the best before or expiry date.
The Bio-K+ product featuring Wellmune® available in Canada is the Extra Drinkable Vegan Elderberry with Wellmune®. It delivers 80 billion CFU and is vegan, certified organic, gluten-free, and GMO-free. The fermented base contributes to intestinal flora health, while Wellmune is scientifically studied for its effects on immune function.¹ This applies to Wellmune® specifically, separate from the probiotic strains, which contribute to gastrointestinal and gut flora health across the Bio-K+ range.
Three criteria help you evaluate any immune support probiotic: named strain codes on the label, a CFU count guaranteed until the best before or expiry date, and a functional ingredient with its own dedicated research. Bio-K+ lists full trademark codes for each strain and guarantees CFU accordingly, never at the time of manufacture. The strains support intestinal flora health, while Wellmune® brings its own distinct research profile as a named ingredient on the Elderberry SKU.
Bio-K+ Extra Drinkable Vegan Elderberry with Wellmune® is certified organic, gluten-free, and GMO-free — independently verified, not simply claimed on the label. For readers with dietary restrictions, this vegan, gluten-free, non-GMO fermented base makes it accessible as part of a daily well+being routine. Take one bottle daily, with or without food. Do not mix it with hot beverages, as live bacteria are heat-sensitive. Once opened, consume within 7 days and keep refrigerated.
This page provides product information and general educational context. It does not constitute medical advice. For guidance on which probiotic option supports your individual health needs and daily routine, speak with your healthcare professional or pharmacist, who can factor in your individual circumstances before you begin any new probiotic routine. Bio-K+ probiotic products are available in pharmacies and health food retailers across Canada.
Wellmune® is a patented yeast beta-glucan functional ingredient. It is not a probiotic strain, and its research profile is separate and distinct from that of the probiotic strains it is combined with. The three probiotic strains in Bio-K+ products help support gastrointestinal and gut flora health, while Wellmune® has its own dedicated research profile as a functional ingredient. Wellmune is scientifically studied for its effects on immune function.¹ This claim applies to Wellmune® only and is not extended to the probiotic strains.
Yes. Bio-K+ Extra Drinkable Vegan Elderberry with Wellmune® is vegan. The fermented base is made from oats and pumpkin seeds with no dairy ingredients. It is also certified organic, gluten-free, and GMO-free, which makes it accessible for a range of dietary needs. Readers with specific dietary requirements or allergies should review the current product label for the most up-to-date ingredient and certification details. This product is available across Canada through pharmacies and health food retailers.
Yes. Bio-K+ guarantees the live bacteria count in all its probiotic products until the best before or expiry date, not at the time of manufacture. This applies to the Elderberry Drinkable with Wellmune®, which delivers 80 billion CFU. A guarantee at the end of shelf life is a meaningful quality distinction, since it tells you what you are actually getting at the moment you consume the product rather than at the point it left the facility.
Yes. Bio-K+ Extra Drinkable Vegan Elderberry with Wellmune® requires refrigeration because it is a live-culture fermented drinkable. The 80 billion CFU is guaranteed until the best before or expiry date under appropriate refrigerated storage, which keeps the bacteria live and active. Once opened, consume within 7 days. Serve it chilled, and do not mix it with warm or hot beverages, as live bacteria are sensitive to heat.
Daily, consistent use is the usual way to keep a probiotic routine on track. Bio-K+ Extra Drinkable Vegan Elderberry with Wellmune® is formulated for one bottle daily, making it easy to fit into your day. Take it with or without food, and do not mix it with hot beverages, as live bacteria are heat-sensitive. If you have a health condition, are immunocompromised, or take medication, consult your healthcare professional or pharmacist before starting any new probiotic routine.
