Have read about it online and another poster mentioned it on here, I was just after some reviews, if it made a difference and if it was worth it?

Worked for my daughter after 5 months of severe abdominal pain. Nothing found on any tests apart from faecal impaction right at the start. However, I did start on it at the same time as droppingvthe movicol dose so either could have been responsible but the change was dramatic.

How old was your daughter twooter?

I get very bloated every day despite avoiding dairy and wheat as best I can. When I was younger doctors diagnosed ibs although I don’t have the symptoms... was on meds for years made no difference.

Have taken expensive good bacteria tablets for few months but that didn’t make any difference either so I’m a bit reluctant due to price....

Sorry, just seen your reply. She was 9-10. It was recommended by a friend who had been giving it to her dcfrim much younger, and it had made a big difference.

I'm taking it ATM.

Been on it about 2 weeks.

The bloating has gone completely and I feel so much better in general.

I did the whole course.
I don’t have IBS, was interested for potential gut health benefits.
I didn’t feel any different during the course, and found it quite hard to stomach by the end. Not sure it had any positive effects on me tbh

menstru for what reason did you start?

Sorry hadn’t seen anyone had replied!

I’m so bloated I look pregnant and would love it gone but this stuff is very expensive!

Placemarking our of interest.

L.Plantarum probiotics made a difference to me when other ones didn’t OP in case it helps.

Bloating. Especially at work so by the afternoon I was having to unzip my trousers. Never a good look at work! Plus it was very painful.

That has completely gone.

That’s what I’m like, so bloated... maybe I’ll try after Xmas....

Are you sure the bloating is just gas? Have you seen a GP at all?

Ilmb · 16/11/2018 08:35

Pretty sure yes. Iv seen the gp loads over the years for various things, I was for ovarian cancer, ha an ultrasound done earlier this year to check for cysts etc and all clear.
