The Why Behind Our 16 Probiotic Strains

Hey y’all, Noah here! 👋  

Wanted to chat about the 16 probiotic strains that I carefully hand-picked for my coconut yogurt. 🥥 

Why I Created a 16-Strain Probiotic Blend

 
Around 2014-2015 my gut health was really struggling.  I had just gotten off a bunch of medications and steroids for a variety of health issues. 🏥 Needless to say, my gut and overall health were a wreck.  I searched all over for a probiotic supplement 💊 that actually worked (& I tried them all), but nothing seemed to be as strong as I’d wished it was.  I just never felt much of a difference. 
 
After many hours of research, I carefully and intentionally hand-selected a custom blend of the highest quality, super potent probiotic strains that I could find. I hand-selected these 16 strains based on my personal health needs, which also happened to be what many other people struggle with too. 

I started making and fermenting certain foods with this custom blend of probiotics — and the coconut yogurt was off the charts delicious.😋 I’m still using the original 16 strains and my original yogurt recipe to this day.  That’s why y’all feel such a difference when you eat it regularly.  It really works! 🙌

The Cost of Probiotic Goodness

 

When you compare Coconut Cult to traditional yogurt, the price can seem surprising. I know my probiotic yogurt is expensive, but it’s because the quality, ingredient panel, and super-live custom probiotic blend are unmatched.
All of these ingredients are honestly expensive for me to buy myself. I think you'd be shocked to learn just how difficult it is to source quality ingredients, especially on a larger scale, but I have the best team there is — and they cut zero corners. 
 
50+ billion CFU per ounce, which means my glass jars 🫙 are multi-serve.  Use my yogurt to top your parfait with, eat it by the spoonful, or add it to your favorite smoothie 🫐 to give it a probiotic boost.⚡️ 
 
I’ll be going into more detail about what each of my strains can potentially help with in the next few blogs ✍️ to come, but below is the list of what's inside of all of my flavors. Each flavor has the same 50 billion CFU per ounce.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why does Coconut Cult have 16 probiotic strains?

We chose a blend of 16 live probiotic strains because we wanted to create a diverse, living fermented food—not rely on a single strain. Fermentation is about the entire community of microorganisms working together.

Why do you recommend only 2–4 spoonfuls to start?

Every ounce contains 50 billion CFU of live probiotics. Starting with a smaller serving gives your gut time to adjust as you introduce live fermented foods into your routine.

Why is Coconut Cult refrigerated?

Because it's never pasteurized after fermentation, Coconut Cult should always be kept refrigerated to help preserve its live cultures.

Why does Coconut Cult taste sour?

The tangy flavor comes from natural fermentation. As beneficial bacteria transform the coconut cream, they produce organic acids that give live fermented foods their signature taste.
