What are
probiotics? Why are they important and how do they work?
Probiotics are live microorganisms such as bacteria and yeast. There are
literally trillions of these organisms in the human digestive tract. Probiotics
are important because they help populate the intestines to balance the microbial
environment and improve digestive health.
What
probiotic strains are in my digestive tract?
Lactobacillus strains are the most prevalent probiotic bacteria
in the small intestine, and Bifidobacterium strains are most
prevalent in the large intestine (colon).
Can I find
probiotics in food?
Yes. Live probiotics can be found naturally in non-pasteurized, fermented foods
such as yogurt and kefir, in fermented vegetables such as sauerkraut, and in
soybean-based foods such as miso and tempeh.
If
probiotics are already in my food, why would I take a probiotic supplement?
Everyday factors such as poor diet, stress, travel, and even the use of some
medications can offset the balance of healthy bacteria in your digestive tract.
Probiotics help your body digest valuable nutrients from your food and play an
important role in producing needed vitamins such as vitamin B12 and vitamin K.
You can read more about the benefits of probiotics at https://www
.renewlife.com/blog/if-probiotics-are-in-my-food-why-take-a-supplement/.
How do I
choose a probiotic supplement?
There are several key factors to consider when choosing a probiotic. They
include: a high culture count; the number of strains; targeted or delayed
release; a potency and stability guarantee; clear label information; a reputable
manufacturer; and a “best used by” date. For more details, you can take a look
at a short video on our website: https://therenewlife.myshopify.com/blogs/renewlife/do-you-know-the-6-rules-of-probiotics/.
What is
culture count (or CFU), and why is it important in a probiotic?
Culture count – also known as CFU (Colony Forming Unit) – refers to the total
number of bacteria per serving. It’s an important factor because some of the
most effective probiotic supplements have at least 10 billion cultures per
capsule.
Why do the
number and type of strains in a probiotic matter, and how many strains should I look
for?
It’s important that probiotic supplements contain high amounts of
both Bifidobacteria to support the large intestine (colon)
and Lactobacilli to support the small intestine and
urogenital tract. Look for a supplement with multiple strains of different
bacteria, including clinically-studied strains that have been shown to benefit
digestive health.
What does
it mean if a probiotic is designed for “targeted” or “delayed” release?
Our probiotic capsules with targeted (or delayed) release technology are
designed for optimal delivery of live cultures to the intestines. They protect
cultures from stomach acid so that the cultures are alive when they arrive in
the intestines, where they will provide the most benefit.
What does
it mean for a probiotic to be potent?
A probiotic can be considered potent if it contains 10 billion cultures or more
per serving.
Why do
stores keep some of your probiotics refrigerated and others on the shelves?
Some of our probiotic products are shelf-stable, and some are best if kept
refrigerated. So if you’re looking for our probiotics in stores, be sure to
check the shelves as well as the refrigerated sections.
Do Renew
Life products contain gluten, dairy, or soy?
A number of Renew Life products are made without gluten, dairy, or soy. We list
all specific ingredients right on the packaging of every product. To be certain
about ingredients, please check each individual product’s packaging label in the
store or online. If you aren’t sure or have questions, we can be reached at
800-830-1800.
Are Renew
Life products Non-GMO Project verified?
For a full list of Renew Life products that have been verified by the Non-GMO
Project, please visit their website at www.nongmoproject.org and
search for our Renew Life brand.
Are Renew
Life products vegan?
Most of our products are vegetarian and many of them
would be considered vegan. To determine whether a Renew Life product is
vegan, check the packaging label in the store or online to be sure there are
no animal ingredients listed, and look for a “dairy free” designation. We
have certain formulas that may contain traces of ingredients that are not
vegan, and we specifically state this on those products’ packaging labels.
If you have questions, we can be reached at 800-830-1800.
Are Renew
Life products USDA-certified organic?
Many of our products contain certified organic ingredients. To be certain,
please check for the “USDA organic” seal on each individual product’s packaging
label in the store or online. If you’re wondering about the organic composition
of our probiotic supplements, please note that because probiotics are living
organisms, the probiotics in our formulas are not considered “organic”
ingredients under labelling standards. If you have any questions about this, we
can be reached at 800-830-1800.
Probiotics – How to take and store
them
How do I
take probiotic capsules?
For the best results, take one capsule daily with or without food. If you
need assistance or more information, you can reach us at 800-830-1800.
How do I
take probiotic powder?
We suggest mixing probiotic powder with cool or room-temperature water, other
beverages, or soft food immediately before use. Do not mix
with hot beverages or hot food.
Can
probiotic supplements cause side effects?
Some individuals may experience gas and bloating when first using probiotic
supplements. If you need assistance or more information, we can be reached at
800-830-1800.
If I’m
cleansing, can I also take a probiotic?
You can take a
Renew Life probiotic with any of our cleansing or detox formulas. If you
need assistance or more information, you can reach us at 800-830-1800.
Can I take
a probiotic if I’m pregnant?
Some experts recommend taking a daily probiotic supplement during
pregnancy to promote better digestion and health. You can read more
about this on our website at https://therenewlife.myshopify.com/blogs/renewlife/did-you-know-probiotics-benefit-moms-to-be/.
If you are uncertain about whether to take a probiotic during pregnancy,
we recommend consulting with your doctor or healthcare practitioner.
Do I really
need to refrigerate my probiotics? What happens if I don’t?
The reason we recommend keeping your probiotics in the refrigerator is
to keep out moisture and help those good-for-your-gut bacteria last as
long as possible. If refrigeration isn’t an option, it’s best to store
your probiotics in a cool, dry place at 77 degrees Fahrenheit (25
degrees Celsius) or below (such as on the counter or in the pantry with
your other supplements). You can read more about storing your probiotics
at https://therenewlife.myshopify.com/blogs/renewlife/do-i-really-need-to-refrigerate-my-probiotics/.
Do Ultimate
Flora probiotics need to be refrigerated during shipment?
We take extra steps to ensure that the potency of Ultimate Flora probiotics is
not impacted by shipping to retailers or consumers. We do not ship our
probiotics with ice packs. For best results, we suggest refrigerating probiotics
after opening.
What is the
potency guarantee for Ultimate Flora probiotics?
Renew Life guarantees that when stored appropriately, every probiotic we make
will meet its potency claim until the expiration date listed on the package.
Why does
your website say that Renew Life products and Ultimate Flora probiotics haven’t been
evaluated by the FDA?
Renew Life distributes dietary supplements, which fall into a different
regulatory category than drugs. Under the Dietary Supplement Health and
Education Act (DSHEA) the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) requires a standard
disclaimer for products that benefit a function of the human body (such as
promoting digestive and immune health).
Which Renew
Life probiotics are best for taking on the go?
Our Ultimate Flora Go Packs are the best option if you’re looking for a
shelf-stable probiotic you can take on the go. We package them in blister packs
to protect each probiotic capsule from moisture, oxygen, and light.
CATEGORY: KIDS
Kids –
General
What
products does Renew Life offer for kids?

Life’s kid-friendly supplements on our

Kids –
Probiotics
Is it safe
for children to take probiotics?
Yes, Renew Life makes probiotic products formulated to be safe for children.
Powdered formulas and chewable tablets that can begiven to infants and toddlers
are specifically labeled. If you need assistance or more information, we can be
reached at 800-830-1800. If you are uncertain about giving your child a
probiotic, we recommend consulting with your pediatrician.
What are
the benefits of your kid-friendly probiotic supplements?
We’ve developed our kid-friendly formulas to address a range of concerns,
including digestive and immune health, colon health, nutritional support for
developing minds, and relief of occasional diarrhea, constipation, and other
tummy troubles. There’s also research that connects healthy gut balance to
higher energy levels, overall wellness, and better sleep. You can
find more
information about probiotics for kids on our website.
What kinds
of probiotics do you offer for kids and what form do they come in?
We offer several Ultimate Flora probiotics for kids that come in various forms,
including chewable tablets and gummies.
How potent
are your probiotics for kids?
Our Kids Daily
Boost and Organic Kids Daily Complete each have 10 billion cultures per
serving that come in convenient stick packs. Our Ultimate Flora Kids
Probiotic Gummies come in two potencies – 2 billion or 3 billion live
cultures per serving. In addition, our Ultimate Flora Kids Probiotic 1
Billion tablets have 1 billion live cultures per tablet and our Ultimate
Flora Kids Probiotic 3 Billion tablets have 3 billion live cultures per

How do I
decide which probiotic is right for my child?
It’s a good idea to consult your doctor or health care practitioner before
starting your kids on any nutritional supplements. If you are concerned
about specific digestive or health issues, you should always first seek
medical guidance. Generally speaking, when choosing a probiotic for your
child you should consider the potency of the probiotic as well as the form
it comes in (for school-age children, chewable tablets, fast-melt tablets,
or gummies are a great way to help them get good bacteria added to their
diet). If you need assistance or more information, we can be reached at
800-830-1800.
Is it safe
for babies to take probiotics, and what are the benefits?
Yes. In fact, newborns receive their first “good” or “friendly”
bacteria earlier than you might expect – according to one recent
study, in the mother’s womb. Taking a probiotic supplement as early
as infancy may help promote a healthy balance of intestinal flora to
support digestion, and probiotics are considered a safe and gentle
way to help support the immune system. You can find more
information about probiotics for infants on our
website. If you need assistance or more information, we can be
reached at 800-830-1800. If you are uncertain about giving your baby

toddlers’ digestive tracts. We developed this formula specifically for babies to
foster optimum digestion and immune function. We also offer our Baby Colic Drops

CATEGORY: CLEANSES
Cleanses –
General
What are
the benefits of cleansing?
Our bodies are exposed to everyday toxins in our air, water, food, and even in
our own homes. Over time, those toxins may build up in the body and affect our
overall health. For this reason, many health experts recommend regular internal
cleansing to help the body more efficiently eliminate toxins and waste. You can
read more about natural body cleansing at https://therenewlife.myshopify.com/blogs/renewlife/natural-body-cleansing-what-are-the-benefits-and-where-to-begin/.
Is it true
that cleanses will require more frequent trips to the bathroom?
While everyone has different bowel habits, Renew Life cleansing systems are not
designed to require more frequent bathroom trips. Our colon support products are
intended to be taken only in the evening, which allows the colon support formula
to work overnight and help promote a normal bowel movement in the morning. If
you need assistance or more information, you can reach us at 800-830-1800.
Will
cleansing flush out vitamins and other supplements?
No. Cleansing herbs function by simply “up-regulating” your detoxification
functions. They do not flush out vitamins or other supplements.
Why are
there different kinds of cleanses?
There are two overall types of cleanses: (1) general total body cleanses and
(2) targeted cleanses. At Renew Life, we offer options in both categories.
What are
Renew Life’s general total body cleanses and how are they different?
Our cleanses in this category include Total Body Cleanse, Cleanse Smart, and
Rapid Cleanse. While Total Body Cleanse is a milder formulas that contain whole
herbs, Cleanse Smart and Rapid Cleanse are stronger, more advanced formulas with
deep-cleansing herbal extracts.
What are
Renew Life’s targeted cleanses?
Our targeted cleanses include our CANDISmart Yeast Cleansing Formula, our
PARASmart Microbial Cleanse, our Liver Detox Organ Cleansing Program. You can
read more about the benefits of each targeted cleanse at https://www.renewlife.com/targeted-cleansing.
Cleanses – Selecting a
cleanse
If I’ve
never cleansed before, where do I begin?
We recommend beginning with a general total body cleanse such as Renew Life’s
Total Body Cleanse. This product contains whole herbs instead of deep-cleansing
herbal extracts and are designed for first-time cleansers. If you need
assistance or more information, you can reach us at 800-830-1800. If you are
uncertain about whether to cleanse, we recommend consulting with your doctor or
healthcare practitioner.
Are Cleanse
Smart and Rapid Cleanse okay for a first-time cleanser to use?
Because Cleanse Smart and Rapid Cleanse are advanced total body cleanses that
use deep-cleansing herbal extracts, they are recommended for first-time
cleansers who also experience occasional constipation. If you need assistance or
more information, you can reach us at 800-830-1800. If you are uncertain about
which type of cleanse to select, we recommend consulting with your doctor or
healthcare practitioner.
Do I need
to use a general cleanse like Cleanse Smart before moving on to a targeted formula?

start with Cleanse Smart and then move on to a targeted formula such as
CANDISmart or PARASmart. If you need assistance or more information, you can
reach us at 800-830-1800. If you are uncertain about which type of cleanse to
select, we recommend consulting with your doctor or healthcare practitioner.

or healthcare practitioner.

probiotics while cleansing?
Yes, you can take a probiotic with any of our cleanse systems. If you need

your doctor or healthcare practitioner.

increase the dosage of the cleansing products for more effectiveness?
We do not suggest increasing dosage beyond the recommended dose for any of our
Renew Life cleanses. If you need assistance or more information, you can reach
us at 800-830-1800.
Can I open
cleanse capsules if I cannot swallow a capsule?
Our CANDISmart and PARASmart capsules should remain intact when you take them.
For other Renew Life products, as an alternative to swallowing a capsule, you
can empty its contents into a small amount of applesauce, plain yogurt, or other
soft food.
I’m taking
a prescription medication, can I take it while cleansing?
If you are taking medication, we recommend consulting with your healthcare
practitioner or doctor before taking any cleanse supplement.
Do you have
diet suggestions while using cleansing products?
Do I have
to take other products suggested on the cleansing product boxes?
You don’t have to take the other suggested products. Fiber is suggested while
taking cleansing products because it helps support the detox process. If you’re
currently taking a fiber supplement, you can continue to do so while using
cleansing products.
How do I
know if a cleanse is working?
Results vary. You may experience improvements in regularity, a general sense of
wellbeing, and higher energy levels. If you need assistance or more information,
you can reach us at 800-830-1800.
Is there a
recommended waiting period between cleanses?

your doctor or healthcare practitioner.
If I use
multiple types of cleanses, is it okay to do more than four cleanses a year?
Be sure to read each product’s packaging for specific guidance. If you need
assistance or more information, you can reach us at 800-830-1800. If you are
uncertain about the timing of your cleanses, we recommend consulting with your
doctor or healthcare practitioner.
Can I use
more than one cleanse at a time?
You should use only one cleanse at a time. If you are uncertain about the
timing of your cleanses, we recommend consulting with your doctor or healthcare
practitioner.
What if I
forget a dose while using a cleansing product?
There’s no need to worry if you forget a dose. Simply continue taking the
cleansing product as suggested on the following day. Do
not double a dose.
CATEGORY: ENZYMES
Enzymes –
General
What are
digestive enzymes and why do I need them?
Digestive enzymes are proteins your body makes to help break down the food you
eat into usable nutrients that are absorbed in the digestive tract and used
throughout the body. They play an important role in every function in the human
body, including digestion, breathing, reproduction, elimination, and kidney and
liver function.
If my body
already has enzymes, why would I want to take an enzyme supplement?
Humans used to get a lot more enzymes from their diet than most of us do today.
Our foods are depleted of natural enzymes when they are refrigerated,
transported, processed, or cooked. In addition, enzyme production decreases with
age. There are also several digestive enzymes the human body lacks, including
cellulase (needed to break down plant fibers) and phytase (needed to break down
the phytic acid found in beans and legumes). If you need assistance or more
information, you can reach us at 800-830-1800. If you are uncertain about taking
an enzyme supplement, we recommend consulting with your doctor or healthcare
practitioner.
What kinds
of enzymes does Renew Life offer and what do they do?
Renew Life offers a range of plant-based enzymes that promote optimal
digestion so that you can feel comfortable and get the most nutrients from
your food. Our enzymes help maximize digestion of a broad range of foods,
prevent occasional gas, bloating, and indigestion, and promote a healthy
intestinal environment. You can find more details about
our enzymes on our website.
Why do you
offer several different types of enzymes? How are they different?
While all of our enzymes aid in digestion, we have developed specialized
formulas to also target specific concerns such as gas, heartburn, microbial
balance, bloating and indigestion, and pH balance. In addition, we offer
targeted enzymes developed for women, adults over 50, and kids.

CATEGORY: FISH OILS
Why should
I consider taking a fish oil supplement?
Fish oil supplements supply the essential fatty acid Omega-3.
(Essential fatty acids are good-for-you fats used by every cell in your
body to support and manage vital functions.) Because the body produces
very little Omega-3 on its own and because most Americans don’t get
enough from food alone, taking a daily fish oil supplement can help
supply additional Omega-3 fats. You can read more about Omega-3
at
What are
the benefits of taking fish oil supplements?
The healthy fats found in oily fish have been shown to promote heart
health, in part due to their natural anti-inflammatory properties. These
healthy fats include Omega-3 EPA and DHA(a polyunsaturated omega-3 fatty
acid). Both Omega-3 EPA and DHA are beneficial. EPA is best known for
supporting cardiovascular health, healthy cholesterol levels, and a healthy
mood, and it has also been linked to joint health and immune function
support. DHA is best known for supporting eye health and brain function.
Will I
experience a “fishy” taste if I take a fish oil supplement?
You don’t have to worry about a “fishy” taste with Renew Life’s Norwegian
Gold supplements. We make them with enteric-coated soft gels so that the
fish oil is delivered directly to the intestines for better absorption and
no fishy aftertaste.
What is the
purity and potency of Norwegian Gold fish oils, and how is this verified?
To ensure purity and potency, each batch of our Norwegian Gold fish
oils undergoes third-party testing by the International Fish Oil
Standards (IFOS). IFOS testing verifies that the manufacturer’s
certificate of analysis is accurate.
What type
of fish is used to make Norwegian Gold fish oils?
Renew Life Norwegian Gold contains molecularly distilled purified fish oils
from smaller fish such as anchovies and sardines.
What is the
potency of Norwegian Gold® Super Critical Omega?
Norwegian Gold Super Critical Omega is a verified maximum-strength
fish oil supplement with 1,000 mg of Omega-3 in each softgel
capsule. It is super concentrated to 95% total Omegas, and also
contains 1000 IU Vitamin D3 per capsule.
