How do you pack probiotics for travel?

Use an Insulated Container. A well-insulated container such as a cooler box can maintain a consistent internal temperature for several hours or more. Depending on the length of your journey, this could be long enough to preserve your probiotics. Don't put ice packs in the container to keep it cold.

Don't put your probiotics in checked baggage, as the temperature in the cargo hold can get quite hot. Wrap the bottle in a few layers of aluminum foil to protect the probiotics from light and moisture. If possible, place the wrapped bottle in an insulated bag, such as a lunch bag, with a chill-pack.
