A once-daily vegetarian capsule sold as support for digestive and metabolic wellness. It combines two prebiotic fibres with a three-strain probiotic blend. Thirty capsules per bottle, a 30-day supply.
The seller describes support for digestive comfort, metabolic wellness, appetite regulation through satiety, steadier post-meal blood sugar and gut-barrier integrity. These are supportive claims for healthy adults alongside diet and activity, not medical outcomes.
Three, with amounts read from the label: chicory root inulin 211 mg, potato resistant starch 100 mg, and a 36 mg probiotic blend containing Bifidobacterium infantis, Clostridium butyricum and Akkermansia muciniphila. Other ingredients are hypromellose (the vegetarian capsule shell), microcrystalline cellulose, magnesium stearate and silica.
Because the product label publishes them. The seller's page names the ingredients but gives no milligram amount for any of them and no CFU count, and names only one of the three strains. The Supplement Facts panel on the bottle carries the amounts and names all three.
A soluble prebiotic fibre from the chicory root, and one of the best-characterised prebiotics there is. It reaches the colon undigested and is fermented by gut bacteria. 211 mg here, against 5–10 grams a day in most prebiotic trials.
Starch that escapes digestion in the small intestine and ferments in the colon like a fibre. It ferments later and further along the colon than inulin, which is why pairing the two is sensible. 100 mg here, against 15–30 grams a day in studies.
Three strains, all named on the label: Bifidobacterium infantis, Clostridium butyricum and Akkermansia muciniphila. The blend weighs 36 mg. No strain designations and no CFU count are given.
It is small. Prebiotic inulin trials typically use 5 to 10 grams a day, so 211 mg is roughly one twenty-fifth to one fiftieth of a studied dose. Fibre is bulky and a single capsule cannot hold a gram-scale dose — that is a constraint of the format rather than a criticism of the ingredient choice.
Not published anywhere, including on the label. The blend is declared by weight (36 mg), and weight cannot be converted to colony forming units. It is a fair question to ask the seller before ordering six months' worth.
The label says one capsule daily with an 8 oz glass of water. The seller adds that the morning, before a meal, is preferable. Consistency matters more than timing.
One capsule, once a day, with water — nothing to measure or mix. The one complication is refrigeration, which makes it slightly less portable than a capsule you can keep in a bag.
Yes. The label says “Refrigerate for optimal quality” and to keep it away from heat, light and humidity; the seller says to refrigerate after opening. Follow the label, which is the more conservative instruction. Six bottles is 180 days of fridge space, and shipping is not refrigerated.
Yes. The capsule shell is hypromellose, a plant-derived material, and the seller describes the product as vegetarian and lactose-free with no dairy carrier.
It may, in the first week. That is the normal response to any prebiotic fibre as gut bacteria adjust, and it usually settles. If you have IBS or follow a low-FODMAP diet, note that inulin is a fructan and may be a trigger.
Per the label: children under 18, and pregnant or nursing mothers without medical guidance. Anyone with a known medical condition should consult a physician first. Anyone immunocompromised should take medical advice before any live probiotic.
Three bundles: two bottles at $79 each ($158), three at $69 each ($207), and six at $49 each ($294). Every bottle holds 30 capsules.
The seller prints a struck $179 against $158 while claiming a $200 saving, and $179 minus $158 is $21. Its own regular rate is $179 per bottle, so the struck total should be $358 — which gives exactly the $200 claimed, and matches how the other two tiers are calculated.
About $2.63 a day on the two-bottle bundle, $2.30 on the three-bottle and $1.63 on the six-bottle.
The seller lists free US shipping on the three- and six-bottle bundles. The two-bottle bundle adds a shipping fee at checkout, and the amount is set there.
60 days from the date of purchase, which the seller calls unconditional. But the same page says a refund follows at least 30 days of use, so the practical window to act is days 30 to 60. The stated refund contact is [email protected]. Two things are not published: who pays return postage, and whether opened bottles are accepted.
The seller states the purchase is one-time with no subscriptions and no auto-billing, which is a genuine point in its favour. Confirm it at checkout before paying, as you should with any order.
Six digital guides with three- and six-bottle orders, stated values totalling $358. The two-bottle bundle does not include them. They are listed here, each with its correct cover — the seller's page pairs four of the six with the wrong artwork.
No. Individual results may vary. SodaTide has not been through a clinical trial of its own, the research behind its ingredients concerns those ingredient categories rather than the finished capsule, and weight and digestion depend on diet, activity, sleep and health factors no capsule controls.
No, and no dietary supplement is. It is made in an FDA-registered facility, and registration applies to the facility rather than the product. The seller's own footer states the brand is not affiliated with or endorsed by the FDA and that its badges indicate manufacturing facility standards only — which is accurate.
No. A 347 mg fibre-and-probiotic capsule and a prescription medicine are not alternatives to one another and have never been compared in any trial. Never stop, delay or replace prescribed treatment on the strength of a supplement page — and particularly not if you manage type 2 diabetes.

SodaTide Questions Nobody Can Answer From Outside
Four, and all are fair to put to the seller before ordering.
How many CFU are in each capsule? The most informative question here by a distance. The blend is declared by weight, and weight tells you nothing about live organism count.
What are the strain designations? Three species are named, which is good. But different strains of the same species behave differently, and the codes are what tie a product to a study.
Is the Akkermansia live or pasteurised? A meaningful question for this particular organism — some research uses pasteurised, non-viable cells, and it is not a detail a label is required to state.
What are the exact return conditions? Who pays postage, and whether opened bottles are accepted. Neither is published.
None of these figures is estimated anywhere on this site.
No CFU count is published for the SodaTide probiotic blend
The label declares the probiotic blend by weight — 36 mg. That is the one figure on the panel that cannot be interpreted.
Probiotics are dosed in colony forming units, not milligrams. A CFU count measures how many live organisms you actually swallow. A weight tells you how much powder is in the capsule, and that powder is mostly carrier material. Two products both declaring 36 mg could differ by several orders of magnitude in live organisms, and nothing published distinguishes them.
Typical probiotic research uses doses in the region of one to fifty billion CFU a day, and trials report the figure because it is the variable that matters.
What this means practically: the strains are named, which is better than most blends manage, but the amount of live culture cannot be established from any published source. That is a fair question to put to the seller before ordering six months' worth.
What SodaTide is not for
SodaTide is a dietary supplement, not a treatment for any medical condition. It is not a treatment for obesity, diabetes, irritable bowel syndrome, inflammatory bowel disease or any other condition, and it is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease.
Some symptoms need a doctor rather than a supplement, and this is worth being specific about. Sudden or unexplained weight loss, persistent abdominal pain, blood in the stool, a lasting change in bowel habit, or difficulty swallowing all need clinical assessment. So does persistent fatigue, which has causes a blood test can find — anaemia, thyroid disease, coeliac disease, diabetes and sleep apnoea among them.
A prebiotic capsule cannot distinguish between ordinary bloating and something that needs investigating. A doctor can.
The SodaTide 60-Day Money-Back Guarantee
The seller states a 60-day satisfaction guarantee from the date of purchase and describes it as unconditional. It also states the purchase is one-time with no automatic renewals or auto-billing, which is a genuine point in its favour.
The condition that changes how the SodaTide guarantee works
The same page says twice that a refund follows “at least 30 days of use”. Read together with the 60-day limit, the practical window to request a refund is days 30 to 60 — about 30 days wide, not 60.
That is not unreasonable for a product whose own rationale is that microbiome change takes weeks. But “unconditional” is not quite the right word for a guarantee with a stated precondition, and the gap is easy to miss.
Only the two-bottle bundle is a 60-day supply and fits inside the guarantee at all. The three-bottle bundle runs 90 days and the six-bottle bundle 180 days — three times longer than the window.
Put day 30 and day 60 in your calendar the day you order. The stated refund contact is [email protected]. Two things the published terms do not settle: who pays return postage, and whether opened bottles are accepted.
Considering SodaTide?
Read the ingredients page first. This site publishes the per-capsule amounts and all three probiotic strain names, read directly from the product label — none of which appears on the seller's page at all. They are the numbers that should shape the decision.
