More than 50% of Americans have digestive complaints, symptoms (i.e., constipation, diarrhea, irregularity, cramping, flatulence), if not outright problems or a diagnosis. THE PROBLEM: No 'GOOD' digestive flora, aka: gut bacteria--the good, healthy kind, in our grocery supply anymore... WHY? Our food supply travels from afar, and heaven forbid one should contract, or be challenged by, a foreign E. Coli strain that one is NOT accustomed to. So, everything is run over a conveyor belt under UV light, irradiated that is, in order to kill all that. Thus, unless you live on a farm, or grow your own fruit & veggies and EAT them FRESH, and furthermore DRINK or EAT your own MILK/DAIRY products FRESH, your are simply NOT getting ANY good gut flora. **SO HERE'S THE BOTTOM LINE: GOOD gut flora, aka: healthy digestive bacteria are essential, necessary, REQUIRED even for proper break-down of food, for your ENZYMES, for ABSORPTION, for you/us to get access to a FULL array of NUTRIENTS!! That is, if one is even eating a proper diet: Of wide & deep variety of whole foods, MOSTLY home-made (e.g., home-cooked). 2-3 Veggies w/ lunch & dinner; but, sadly MOST Americans don't even look at a vegetable per day, or they think it's the measly wilted stuff that might show up on a fast food meal at the drive-thru. THE ANSWER: TAKE A VEGGIE SUPPLEMENT AND A PROBIOTIC. AND AS WE GET OLDER, A DIGESTIVE ENZYME AS WELL AS A FIBER SUPPLEMENT. WHY? Digestive Enzymes decrease in the gut, and fibers have been stripped from many of our foods. Finally, take a Fish or Salmon Oil, 1-2 per day after meals; it comes in enteric, even vanilla coated... but even if you have GERD, most don't need that if taken w/ food: keeps the heart, brain, nerves, & vessels healthy; tamps down depression; increases concentration; and also helps keep the gut ON TRACK. * And avoid illness in the process, and with a thicker pocket-book. See, this stuff is an INVESTMENT, not an expense. Without feeding your gut flora every few days (adult), or once a week (kids/teens), your enzymes suffer -- then your digestive process literally ROBS from your IMMUNE SYSTEM... The result? You get sick easier!! Why?? Most of your Immune System is wrapped around your gut. TRUTH/FACT. You can look it up. It's in neat little books--also on < Amazon.com >. PROBIOTICS: PB-8 IS THE BEST. PERIOD. Now you know, pass it on. Live longer, stronger, healthier, in a state of more wellness.

No one should NOT be taking a good probiotic, https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00014JWLS/ref=cm_cr_ryp_prd_ttl_sol_6 multiple strain supplement but everyone can live the rest of their life never eating yogurt as any benefits you get from probiotics that make a difference in your gut health cannot come from pasturized, mass-market yogurt. Not only are the strains in yogurt few, by the time their processed & refrigerated there's nothing live in them that will do anything & the TV ads for such brands of yogurt making medical claims make me want to punch the lousy out of work actresses who do those commercials.This & other brands is the only way to keep your gut armed with the troops of good bacteria you need to keep your immune system strong & your gut function well.Many people who are running around on meds for IBS or other such ailments could do well to take these, make some dietary adjustments & get off prescription meds.Speaking of which, if you never take these daily as I do, you should at least buy & double up on these for a week after taking any anti-biotic starting the day you take the last pill of your prescription.Healthy bacteria that we're born with is not only vitally important & some of it can be replaced if you're making your own yogurt & not killing the bacteria refrigerating it, not very practical but it affects many more elements of your body's overall health, not just digestive related health.

I’m not feeling good from this one

In December 2014 I was hospitalized twice for a stomach infection. I had already scheduled to have some of my colon removed. My pharmacist recommended that I buy PB8 while I was recovering. She even told me where to buy it locally as her store did not carry it. I take 2 a day for a bad gut. Have been on now for over 1 year and have not had digestive issues since and I did NOT have SURGERY! Not 1 doctor ever mentioned Probiotics and I had digestive issues for 7 years!!!!AND, it is a lot cheaper here on Amazon that at the local Health Foods store. I should say that I have never tried any other brand as this is what was recommended.

I have mild acid reflux, and I took several courses of antibiotics for nearly six months for various teeth problems,. now fixed. This probiotic supplement has fixed most of the problems, without the need for drugs. Eating better will probably fix the rest. These have been very helpful to meI have virtually no side effects using this product, unlike some others that I've tried.I recommend these, especially as a starter probiotic for those who are new to probiotics.

This particular probiotic is really helpful. One good aspect about this product is that it does not need to be refrigerated. If a probiotic needs to be refrigerated I don't bother buying it because I have no refrigeration inside my intestinal tract therefore the product would most likely be useless.Another helpful aspect is that the product really works. I have weakened immune system so I take 2 of these pills before bed for recovery purposes, and 2 in the morning. This routine, and eating healthy, keeps me from catching everything the wind blows in. Furthermore, during this flu/cold season, I upped my intake to 8 pills a day and avoided the flu and all the colds that were going around. I thank the Lord that I have found this probiotic. I highly recommend PB8.
