Reading the bottle
What are the ingredients in sodatide, and where on the bottle do you find them?
What are the ingredients in sodatide, and where do you look? The bottle has two halves. The front is mostly wording, and the side panel holds the names and amounts. This guide reads the front first, then the panel, then lists what the label leaves out.

What are the ingredients in sodatide on the front of the bottle?
The front prints six points, from top to bottom, and none of them names an ingredient. We take them one at a time in the table below, so you can match each to the bottle in your hand.
| Point | What it says | What it is |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Advanced Metabolic Science | Marketing type. It is not a claim about the contents and carries no amount. |
| 2 | Sodatide | The brand name, not a description of what is inside. |
| 3 | Metabolic & Digestive Support | The descriptor, with an asterisk that leads to the FDA statement. |
| 4 | Three icons | The support lines the product is sold to support. They are claims, not findings. |
| 5 | 30 capsules, 30-day supply | The only numbers on the front. |
| 6 | Dietary Supplement | The category line. |
Notice that none of the six points names an ingredient. Asking what are the ingredients in sodatide means turning the bottle to the side.
What are the ingredients in sodatide on the side panel?
They sit on the Supplement Facts panel. The serving size is 1 capsule and there are 30 servings per container. Chicory root inulin is 211 mg. Potato resistant starch is 100 mg. The probiotic blend is 36 mg.
A dagger marks each amount, because no Daily Value has been set. Add the three together and you get 347 mg of actives per capsule. That sum is plain arithmetic from the panel. So the ingredients in sodatide, by weight, are mostly the two fibres.
Which probiotic species are the ingredients in sodatide?
It names three species in the blend: Bifidobacterium infantis, Clostridium butyricum and Akkermansia muciniphila. It prints no strain code, no CFU count and no split of the 36 mg between the three.
That matters because NCCIH says the effects of one kind of probiotic do not necessarily carry over to another. A species name lets you read general research on the species. It does not let you match one exact trial.
What are the other ingredients on the bottle?
The panel lists hypromellose, which is the vegetarian capsule, plus microcrystalline cellulose, magnesium stearate and silica. No allergen statement is printed. If you have a question about any of them for your own body, ask your doctor.
What do the directions and cautions on the bottle say?
The directions are one capsule daily with an 8 oz glass of water. The label says to refrigerate for optimal quality. The brand adds that an open bottle belongs in the fridge to protect the probiotics.
The caution reads: healthy adults aged 18 or older only, not for anyone under 18, anyone taking medicine should speak to a doctor before use, and stay at the label dose unless a clinician advises otherwise.
What is left off the list of ingredients in sodatide?
- The strain codes for each species
- The CFU count
- The split of the 36 mg blend
- A fridge temperature
- A best-before date
The listing seals shown in the seller's artwork are not printed on the bottle, as far as we can see. We do not call them label marks.
Where can you read the full label?

Our view
A good label tells you what is in the bottle and how much. This one does the first part well and leaves two gaps on the probiotic. We think the honest way to read it is line by line, treat the blanks as blanks and not borrow numbers from other products.
This is a dietary supplement, not a medicine. It is not FDA approved, and no supplement is. If you take medicine, have a condition, are pregnant or nursing, or are under 18, talk to a doctor first.
