Essential Formulas is proud to offer Dr. Ohhira’s Probiotics® Professional Formula which uses 13 select probiotic strains of live lactic acid bacteria in a longer 5-year fermentation process. This results in a highly concentrated formula optimized for individuals with complex digestive and immune health goals.*
Dr. Ohhira’s Probiotics Professional Formula is fermented for a full five years using ancient Japanese fermentation techniques. Consequently, the levels of postbiotic metabolites—including restorative organic acids and micronutrient byproducts—are even greater than those found in the Original Formula product.
This award-winning probiotic supplement enhances pH in the stomach and digestive tract, which helps the body support its first line of defense for a healthy GI tract. The greater levels of organic acids result in an internal environment that nurtures all beneficial bacteria, including strains unique to each individual.*
Some of the other lactic acid bacteria resulting from this process, alongside notable postbiotics like fulvic acid, help improve the absorption of critical micronutrients and minerals. This builds on the rich food matrix that makes this product so effective for improving gut health.
Unlike many supplements, Dr. Ohhira’s® Probiotics are gluten-free and encapsulated in a proprietary vegetable capsule individually for optimal effectiveness and freshness. As part of its commitment to quality, this product draws on the expertise of esteemed research scientists and the recognized achievements of alternative medicine gold medal winners like Dr. Iichiroh Ohhira, Ph.D.
If you’re looking for superior-quality probiotics professional formulas to promote a healthy GI tract and long-term digestive health, Dr. Ohhira’s® Probiotics is the ideal choice. Its blend of live active probiotics, prebiotics, and postbiotics offers a holistic approach to building gut health.*

Notes:
The difference between Dr. Ohhira's Original and Professional probiotic formulas lies in the fermentation time and concentration. Both use 13 strains of live lactic acid bacteria, but the Professional Formula is fermented for five years, resulting in more concentrated Postbiotics, developed for individuals with more complex digestive and immune health needs. In contrast, the Original Formula is fermented for three years and is ideal for daily maintenance.
Dr. Ohhira’s Probiotics are made in Okayama, Japan, using a traditional fermentation process with fresh fruits, vegetables, seaweed and mushrooms to ensure a natural and effective product.
Yes, Dr. Ohhira’s Probiotics are considered safe for most individuals, including pregnant or breastfeeding women, though it is recommended to consult with a healthcare provider. The three-year fermentation process reduces potential allergens (like soy) and ensures high-quality beneficial bacterial strains. Possible effects to note are minor bloating or a mild laxative effect when starting to take them, which signals that the beneficial bacteria are “remodeling, detoxifying, and rebalancing” the gut environment.
