Beyond simply containing probiotics, ohso Good Chocolate bars are even better at getting those cultures into one's gut. ohso uses a patented micro-encapsulation process to infuse its Belgian chocolate with probiotics. Studies have shown that this process delivers live cultures to the gut three times more effectively than probiotic yogurts.

ohso Good Chocolate comes in a variety of flavors, including milk chocolate, orange, raspberry, and lemon. The company also offers 'Goody Bars' that are perfect snacks for children.
