100 Billion: 100 billion is a good number although there are no great scientific studies on which to base an answer. 1 vsl#3 capsule has over 100 billion bacteria. This is also the amount in 10 cups of yogert. Many of the studies that I have read that showed benefits from probiotics gave a dosage in this range.
