What the Label Data Shows

Bifidus Balance +FOS is cataloged in the NIH Dietary Supplement Label Database (DSLD) as a other combinations supplement built from 12 ingredients from Jarrow Formulas, sold in capsule form. These ingredients span 6 nutrient categories, bacteria, blend, complex carbohydrate, other, and 2 more, reflecting a multi-component formula rather than a single-nutrient product.

Across a broader 12-ingredient formula, 12 of 12 fall outside the FDA's Daily Value system altogether, expected for a broader formula -- the more ingredients a label lists, the more likely it accumulates botanicals, amino acids, or specialty compounds the FDA has never benchmarked.

Availability status shapes how this label record is best used. This product is currently listed as off-market in the DSLD, with its label first entered into the database on 2012-03-23. Off-market products are no longer being produced or distributed under this label, but the DSLD preserves their historical label data for researchers, consumers checking older bottles, and for tracking how formulations have evolved.
