Smidge® probiotics ship Monday through Wednesday using a two-day service. Please order by 1PM EST. Wednesday for Friday delivery. If the order was placed with Overnight shipping on Thursday by 1PM EST, the order will arrive by Friday afternoon the following day.
Smidge® probiotics contain active freeze-dried bacteria, versus live cultures. Unlike live cultures, which can be destroyed in transit by heat, freeze-dried bacteria hold up well in warm weather, as they remain intact and stable with all of their beneficial properties.
We send our probiotics this way to keep them out of courier trucks over the weekend if possible. Smidge® probiotics will last up to two weeks without cold temperatures but do need to be stored cold for long-term storage.
