I began taking one 100g container of Danone Activa yogurt with B.L. Regularis four months ago and my IBS has virtually disappeared. I am 58 and have suffered most of my life. I actually saw it advertised on tv and thought why not...must not be fat free or in large container. I have heard other people claim that this pro-biotic works and for me it has been a Godsend.

I had strong abdominal pain, lower right side, after eating. It occurred suddenly after a long car trip (7hrs) and new diet(vacation). Bowel movement was also off-kilt. After zero food and bed rest suffering for 24 hours, I took a probiotic from my brother. First effect was restoring bowel movement, good! Then burping and farting was restored (sorry ..). 12 hours later, I am 90% pain free, and am able to eat again without pain. I am convinced.

Ive been taking it daily for 3 yrs. I increase the dose carefully when i habe bowel trouble, start antibiotics or have candidia, constipation or diarrhoea. Very effective but start on very small dose and gradually increase or decrease to find suitable amount. I use powder so i can adjust amount. Cant tolerare very much but very effective.

I refuse to take antibiotics anymore. I was told by a lot of people that the only way to heal a uti is with antibiotics; I went the other way and tried probiotics and it worked; my uti was gone within a few days!

I took "Bio K Plus Original Formula" (with L. Acidophilus and L. Casei - refrigerated liquid dairy formula) for a very severe case of stomach / abdominal pain caused by food poisoning that I got after eating a very bad batch of salsa. It eliminated my severe stomach pain within minutes of taking it. It was amazing!

I had a messy painful yeast rash on 60% of my body, non of the antifungal creams from the doctor worked. I went on a systemic anti fungal prescription for 3 months along with probiotics. It worked! I take the probiotics every day to maintain. I am healthy again! It has been a year and no reoccurance.

I use the Ultimate Flora Vaginal Support 50 billion count every day for the past year. If I hadn't found this product I'd still be bloated, irregular, gaseous, and miserable. This particular product has really been helping my lady parts and I feel like myself again. It might be a little expensive, but it is worth every dollar! You only need to take one pill and Ultimate Flora uses a delayed release capsule so the probiotics aren't destroyed in your stomach. They get to where they need to be! The great thing about them is you start feeling the effects after a few days of taking them. Instant gratification!Read More Read Less

I have had problems with gas and unstable intestinal processes for decades. I started taking an lactobacillus plantarum 299v product in a juice (Goodbelly, I don't know that it's by NextFoods) - and cut out all use of canned pop - and my gut problems are 95% gone. I am milk intolerant so cannot take yogurt; it would cause a session of gas and probably inflammation of the gut. The product I have described is non-dairy.

Probiotics also helped heal my gum disease & keeps them from bleeding. Open the capsule & rub the powder onto the gums after brushing each day.

After 10 years with severe heartburn & arthroscopic surgery, to expose the nerve endings again in my lower esophagus, I've added probiotics with my vitamin intake. 1. my job is physical, thereful with plenty of re-hydration I'm flushing too much bacteria out of my system. 2. Dr. Oz recommends flatuence 20 times a day, thanks to the surgery! I've also added probiotics for my own peace of mind to help that process.

I had an allergic reaction to a new medicine and then a lower GI. My colon was a mess! Everything I ate hurt all the way down! I also had recurrent IBS. I take Phillips Probiotics now, and it has worked wonders! My only complaint is that if I miss a day, my previous symptoms return. I guess I'll just take it forever... it's worth it to feel good!

Cured my baby's terrible colic (primobactillus reuteri) and later his terrible constipation. Sadly it is not FDA approved, so it is taking a risk but most definitely works.
