Best Gut Probotic You Can Buy ❤️ These...
Best Probiotic on the market for your gut. I have had to learn through many years of trial and error that more isn't better. I've even been in RX and VSL#3 and these are simply superior. These are 2 million and I can take over 100 million or even billion and not get the same result as Bio-Kult. It's in the strains that are used and then each strain has hubdreads if strains and it's about strains and the quality of those strains not the millions or billion of inferior strains. The Biokult was so strong that when I first started taking them I had to open the capsule and take 1/3 as a whole tablet cause for toxic fading off than I could handle ( now why didn't the billion strength RX cause this reaction if 2 million strength of Biokult did ?!? It's about strains not number strength) this is the best Probiotic I can find and have tried to date for Gut health. It helps my leaky gut, inability to digest foods, food allergies, immune system and energy level as well as , dare I say , shead a few pounds! And I can tell mentally when I'm taking this and when I'm not!! Do the gut / brain connection is indeed real... now I pictured Pro-15 Probotic as I read this one would survive the digestive acids and aids in upper and lower colon/ intestinal issues. Well it does. I could tell immediately with My IBD , IBS and diviticulitis. I havnt had a IBD (Inflammatory bowel disease) attack since starting these Pro-15. That being said because of the coating on them to last through the digestive track I could tell they went doing what Bio Kult was doing for my gut. So for me these two are the perfect marriage. I rotate taking one then the other every other day and this seems to be what I need to aid my gut and lower intestines... so far I've not found a better combination.

I bought this because it has probiotic strains that help with depression. Over several months of use, and I noticed it really does help reset the gut biome, which in turn helps with proper digestion, helping to produce an environment in your stomach to boost serotonin levels. It was either try this stuff, or take prescription meds for depression and anxiety. After reading about prescription medications for the same, I'm glad I chose this more natural route to returning my body back to normal metabolism and health. I am very happy with this product, and would buy it again.

I have been taking this probiotic while pregnant to help with overall health and regularity and I feel it is working well. It contains 14 live bacterial cultures and is approved by the Vegetarian Society. The directions for use approve it safe for kids, adults, and pregnancy (all as approved by your primary care provider). I can notice a difference when I don't use it and it was referred to me from an adviser; I am glad that I took their advice. I take one daily and I am attaching a photo here to help people visualize the size. I do not have any issues swallowing it or tolerating it once ingested. To note, it may contain soy or milk for those with noted allergies. This probiotic is gluten-free and doesn't contain any artificial colors, flavors, or preservatives. Can also be stored at room temp and swallowed whole or pulled apart and sprinkled onto food or mixed with a drink. I have never opened a capsule to know if it has a taste or if it dissolves well, however. I have re-purchased since initial buy and would recommend to friends and family. I was happy with the transaction and product arrived well before its projected expiration date printed on the bottom of the box.

There are a lot of probiotics out there that cost a lot less. When asked about taking probiotics, most people think that having a yogurt will give them the level of probiotics that will help their bodies. Not true. probiotics in capsules contain billions of beneficial bacteria, and the variety of bacteria and packaging of the capsule are essential for it to be effective. while I am not an expert on probiotics I found that not having to refrigerate it made it easier for taking when traveling, and as to efficacy, my four year old daughter who suffers from cold sores found almost immediate relief when taking bio-kult probiotics. The capsules can be opened and sprinkled in water or juice and if mixed well can be consumed unnoticed.

Cannot say enough good stuff about this product. I was using it to try to improve my immune system. I have tried various and sundry things but when I started this product I could see and feel difference. I read the label before making a big trip with several 7 hour plane rides. Normally just 3 hours on a plane will lay me out for days with a sinus infection and chills - fever etc. that goes with it and a week of antibiotics which I do NOT want - so accordingly I took the 4 a day recommended for when you travel - Thank goodness - not sick. My sinus which always were in pain over my eyebrows - no pain - no draining all day - LOVE THIS PRODUCT - I have tried at least 10 different ones before discovering this one - and it is now my go-to - I even sent it to my family - for the adults - and even the children - You can open the caps and put some in the food/bottle - my new grandbaby is thriving - she had suffered so much at first - I would urge everyone to try this product

5.0 out of 5 stars Gobsmacked - What just happened to my Hayfever?
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on July 4, 2021
Verified Purchase
I recently started taking Bio-Kult Advanced Multi-Strain for Digestive System Capsules. I was hoping for general help with dysbiosis and to rebalance my gut, as I'm 58 and think I drink too much alcohol and this might be damaging my gut flora, and knock-on effect is causing further issues with my ageing and immune system, inflammation, aches/pains, etc. Physically I'm fairly fit, eat good food and have a healthy diet, walk my dogs every day, and do fairly taxing manual labour, I'm the right weight for my height (12.5 stone), but feeling a bit old now. I take a daily vitamin tablet.

Day 1: I took 2 capsules with my meal on the first evening I received them to give my body a "good hit" to get me started, and no alcohol!

Day 2: Took 2 more with my breakfast (probiotic supplements are best taken in the morning with, or just after, breakfast because the acid in our stomach is at its lowest level in the morning, and this acidity is buffered still further with food in the stomach). Bio-Kult say their probiotics are able to pass through the stomach without the acid destroying them. (They also say their capsules have a 2 year shelf-life and do not require storing in the fridge as required by some "live" probiotics products. Bio-Kult contains milk/soya but below levels that would affect lactose intolerance sufferers).

With my evening meal I had another 1 capsule.

Day 3: Took 1 capsule with water next morning before my dog walk.

6 tablets in total so far.

Walking along in the field I noted I must have had a good nights sleep, because even though I was feeling some aches and pains, I was feeling remarkably refreshed and also had quite a clear head. I often have aches/pains next morning which dissipate during the day, and I've had a foggy brain for what seems like years.

But there was something else different which I couldn't put my finger on for quite a while. I felt a bit like I had a summer cold, with a slightly runny nose. And then, bang, it suddenly dawned on me that all my hayfever symptoms had gone!!!

For the last 6 weeks almost every day I've had the typical itchy eyes, itchy ears, runny and itchy back of nose/throat and congestion, and although its rare for me to get asthma I have been wheezing a bit. I was dumbfounded.

So I wondered if it was just a light pollen day? Checking my phone MET office app, forecast says "HIGH grasses pollen peak season, also spores/weed pollen, nettle & pellitory-of-the-wall MEDIUM today", same as yesterday. So I wondered about placebo effect and resigned myself to the idea I would get back home and then the sneezing, itchiness would come on as normal. It didn't.

Often if my hayfever gets too bad I will take Ceterizine Hydrochloride which works best for me without me getting too sleepy, but I won't take it if I can manage without it. The last 4 or 5 days I've not taken any, but my hayfever has constantly been there all day at different levels of severity.

What!? Why has my hayfever just suddenly and almost completely disappeared at the peak of the hayfever season? I feel quite normal apart from this slight summer cold. I realised the only possible thing different is the Bio-Kult. So I googled "probiotics hayfever" and found some interesting articles about how probiotics can help the immune system and reduce histamine production in the body;
Quote: "Lactobacillus Casei has been shown to reduce the immune response in hay fever and also beneficially alter the balance of pollen-specific antibodies in the blood which can lead to a reduction of symptoms. It also contains Bifidobacterium Longum this probiotic can greatly help the immune system. This probiotic is also involved in reducing the number of antibodies that we produce in relation to pollen allergies."

Wow! I had just received my own personal proof that these probiotics are having a very beneficial effect on my body. I don't think I can say that this kind of positive reaction could be the result of a placebo effect? Hayfever can be so uncontrollable and worsen so quickly, especially if you get a sneezing fit, and you have no way to prevent it without antihistamines, or relief using nasal sprays, eye solutions, etc.

All day long, I've been waiting for the hayfever to come on. I've been working outside on quite a hot, dry day with a mild breeze. I'm sure I can feel the itchy twinges at the back of my nose, but I'm just not reacting to it.

I was certainly hoping for probiotics to be able to help with some of my ailments, but this was a completely out-of-the-blue, unexpected and extremely welcome benefit.

One other thing I wanted to mention. When I was reading Amazon reviews for various probiotics products, it seemed that a lot of people gave negative reviews related to ill effects after taking them. I wondered how many of them realise that when you start taking probiotics they often kick-start the immune system into a full body detox, where the good multi-strain bacteria begin to oust any pathogen bacteria, fungal infections, candida and other bad stuff. This is called "die-off" and can result in some nasty symptoms if you're going too fast, e.g. nausea, headaches, diarrhea, bloating, gas. You may need to start with a small dose, and slowly increase over a number of days/weeks. Some people are more sensitive and others may have a lot more nasties in their bodies. If in doubt about your current health and taking probiotics, talk to your GP.

Here's some info on it:-
"Eager to enjoy the benefits of digestive health, you start taking them and suddenly start feeling worse. Before you throw in the towel and swear-off all probiotics for eternity, you might be experiencing the signs that they’re actually working! You might be having die-off symptoms and just need to ease into it and get the combination correct. More commonly known in the scientific community as the Jarisch-Herxheimer reaction, or the Herx reaction, die-off symptoms can encompass a wide range of adverse reactions to toxins released by the bacteria and/or fungus that are being killed. First described by dermatologists Adolf Jarisch and Karl Herxheimer in the early 1900’s as side effects from taking antibiotics for the treatment of syphilis, die-off reactions can occur if bad bacteria are being killed by the probiotic strains that you’re taking. While we are used to thinking of probiotics as the good bacteria that lives in our favourite yoghurt that confer a host of health benefits, these powerhouse microbes are actually quite effective at killing off their bad neighbours." Google "probiotics die off" to learn more.

My guess is that a truly healthy person would not feel any benefit whatsoever from taking probiotics, on the assumption you would have all the right types of bacteria in your gut already. Although I'm reasonably fit and have not experienced any serious die-off symptoms, the hayfever reduction has proved two things to me a) probiotics work, b) my gut-flora was compromised (probably by alcohol, tiredness/stress, and no doubt I could benefit from improving my diet more). I must have been missing at least Lactobacillus Casei and Bifidobacterium Longum, right?

I'm not affiliated with Bio-Kult and this is my genuine review.
Yes, really only 3 days after I started taking Bio-Kult, and writing this another 5 days later still no hayfever. There may be other benefits that may yet manifest in time, but I feel this is a very good start.
Good luck.
