InnovixLabs Multi Strain Probiotics for Women & Men - Probiotic Supplement - 50 Billion CFU - Gut Health, Immune Support, Digestion, Lactobacillus Acidophilus, Prebiotics and Probiotics, 60 Capsules

I believe that all the antibiotics I was given as a kid and a poor diet later on in life have combined into a very real problem with my digestion. To try to alleviate problems, my doctor prescribed an enzyme to me and I decided to add probiotic foods to my diet after reading up about the GAPS diet. I wanted to see if it'd really make a difference or not for me. I generally stuck to milk kefir in this time (Lifeway), which is sold at the premium supermarkets and sometimes even Aldi, and is available at Costco. I also sometimes had kombucha, yogurt, and raw cheese. I noticed after a pretty aggressive regimen with kefir (it has 16 strains), I have been able to eat some of my trigger foods without as severe a repercussion as when I started this.Now keeping in mind I have already spent 6+ months consuming probiotic foods, so my gut has had time to take to introduced bacteria and become altered for the good... When I took the first pill after I got the bottle, I felt it working after 1-2 hours deep in my gut. I thought I was going to have explosive diarrhea with how much was going on, and truthfully, I have had that problem in the past with other products... but I didn't. It was just an urgency to go brought on by the probiotic, which makes sense since the majority of feces is dead bacteria and I'm trying to kill bad bacteria.Now I'm on day 5 and I still feel the difference from taking it, deep in my gut. My cravings are down. When I avoid foods that I am aware of my intolerance for, it reduces bloating, for the most part. I do sometimes have gassy moments if I eat anything starchy, but I'd probably have those anyway to some degree due to how bad my digestive system has gotten. I definitely have more bowel movements than before, which is good because I read that 3+ times per day is what we should be looking for. The smell is a bit more pungent than before, but human excrement is supposed to be the most potent of all excrement anyway. Eating more vegetables can help.I gave some to my roommate and he insists it doesn't do anything for him, but he also doesn't eat a healthy diet. He has many of the same problems I do with food allergens/intolerances, so hopefully continuing to take them will help, but if he fails to eat enough food for his body to function, I'm sure he will never see any results. He really won't see results if he continues to eat the things that he has intolerance for. This is the gentlest probiotic I've ever taken, so that might also account for his lack of reaction to it.Here's to someday being a true omnivore once again.

I have had gastrointestinal problems for about 7 years (i.e. acid reflux) and had to take Nexium/Prilosec, probiotic (align recommended by my Gastroentrologist), and other prescribed medications, but still was not feeing well. My diet at that time was not as healthy and included a lot of bread (or related products), coffee, carbonated drinks, and some processed foods.Seven months ago, I have had it with the symptoms and decided to change my diet instead - and lose my post pregnancy weight as a plus. I stopped all my medications and started eating healthy (cut out bread and most carbs, coffee, carbonated drinks, and processed food). I also started experimenting with other probiotics.I started taking one pill a day for a few weeks then switched to 2. What I noticed the most with this probiotic versus others (and yes, I have tried many many others!) is that you can feel it working. It's positive effects are numerous, but to highlight a few: it has tremendously reduced my appetite, I feel no symptoms from my gastrointestinal issues (no heartburn, not nausea, no bloating...), and I had much more energy than ever before. Of course this goes hand in hand with the quality and type of food I eliminated and switched to. When I forget to take this particular probiotic, I start craving carbs, processed foods and other unhealthy stuff, but when I do, it's like they don't mean anything to me.Overall, I truly see a significant difference between Innovix probiotic and other brand names and have been recommending this to everyone I know. The price is also great!Now, being that everyone is different and run a different lifestyle, it might not have the same effect on you, but I'd say it's worth at least a try!

Got what I ordered and timely delivery. Good product
