Brief Answer:
Safe but meaningless unless there is any underlying medical condition.

Detailed Answer:
Thanks for asking on HealthcareMagic.

Probiotics of 70 billion CFU with 10 strains are safe but meaningless to be taken daily without any definite medical indication. Same about vitamins. Nevertheless, they are safe.

Let me know if I could help further.
