Pilot scorecard
Phillips' scored 2 out of 6 for label disclosure under methodology v1.13, read from the label as captured on 2026-09-27.
60ct variant, Amazon listing B007RA0ZAQ.
The panel line reads 'Proprietary Blend: 3 Billion CFUs' in those exact words, covering two organisms with no split between them. The most explicit proprietary blend in the sample; most others use a branded blend name instead.
No standardization-dependent ingredient in the formula.
Both organisms carry strain designations, Lactobacillus rhamnosus (LGG) and Bifidobacterium animalis subsp. lactis (BB-12). Two of the best-characterised strains in the probiotic literature, named properly.
The 3 Billion CFU figure is an aggregate across two strains with no split, so neither can be compared to its own trial range under the attribution rule. The point survives even the most generous possible reading: if the entire 3x10^9 CFU were LGG, it would still fall below the 1x10^10 to 2x10^10 CFU/day range verified from Vanderhoof 1999 (PMID 10547243), so no allocation of the blend puts LGG in range. Under v1.13 no through-expiry guarantee and no at-manufacture qualifier appears anywhere on the panel either.
No publicly accessible third-party certificate of analysis located 2026-09-27 (listing images, phillipsdigestive.com, site-scoped and open web search). Recorded as a negative finding, not a claim that none exists.
Serving size 1 capsule is stated but servings per container is absent from the Supplement Facts panel. The carton front reads '60 capsules', which is not the panel.
