I haven't noticed any other benefits besides aiding in my digestion though. I have had tummy issues for a few years and now it's just part of my daily routine. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-take-probiotics#post-2198470 Thu, 04 Jun 2015 07:04:08 +0000 Greentea 2198470@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No, nothing seems different when I take them. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-take-probiotics#post-2198457 Thu, 04 Jun 2015 06:33:11 +0000 Miss Sarah 2198457@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have IBS, so probiotics are a must for me! I haven't noticed any added benefits, other than being more regular. It took a long time for the effects to become noticeable and it's important you don't miss a dose, according to my gastroenterologist. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-take-probiotics#post-2197987 Wed, 03 Jun 2015 13:37:23 +0000 2littlepumpkins 2197987@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mamaof2: Ah, I don't think I've ever really noticed much of a change with my complexion but I don't really have a huge problem there either so it's hard to tell! What are you using? Could you look on their website and see how long it takes to colonize? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-take-probiotics#post-2197958 Wed, 03 Jun 2015 13:18:58 +0000 StbHisMrs 2197958@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@kodybear: Thanks I'll have to look it up. The brand I was using was Garden of Life Raw Probiotics, it's a little spendy too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-take-probiotics#post-2197917 Wed, 03 Jun 2015 12:58:24 +0000 kodybear 2197917@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@StbHisMrs: i use florastor kids. its a powder and its kind of expensive, but i tried the daily probiotic tablets (ultimate flora) and it just didn't work the same. it does have a fruit punch taste to it but my daughter doesn't seem to mind too much.. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-take-probiotics#post-2197901 Wed, 03 Jun 2015 12:43:28 +0000 StbHisMrs 2197901@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@kodybear: What brand do you use for your daughter? </p> <p> I've been giving my girls an adult gummy, but I feel like the gummies aren't as good as the powders. I use to buy the powder (I'll have to look at the brand) but they didn't like the taste, now that we make smoothies it might be easier.</p> <p>I know my Mom can tell when she doesn't take them and she has digestive issues, I can't tell if I miss a dose. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-take-probiotics#post-2197890 Wed, 03 Jun 2015 12:37:49 +0000 Mamaof2 2197890@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@2littlepumpkins: yeah I don't have any digestive issues - from what my friend told me I was hoping it would help with energy and acne! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-take-probiotics#post-2197886 Wed, 03 Jun 2015 12:35:04 +0000 2littlepumpkins 2197886@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think if you don't have any digestive issues it can be hard to tell.</p> <p>I take a really high dose one that you're supposed to take under medical supervision (which I do) due to damage to my GI tract, and I can definitely tell. If I change probiotics I digest things differently. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-take-probiotics#post-2197818 Wed, 03 Jun 2015 11:42:21 +0000 kodybear 2197818@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i give my daughter probiotics almost daily and definitely notice a change. before she had on and off diarrhea/stomach issues but once we started probiotics more consistently, not only did she stop having those issues, her mood got a lot better too! so i definitely think they help! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-take-probiotics#post-2197817 Wed, 03 Jun 2015 11:42:05 +0000 Mamaof2 2197817@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@DesertDreams88: my friend told me she had more energy, her acne cleared up, she was regular, she slept better, etc etc</p> <p>Its only been 2 weeks but I cant tell anything has changed </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-take-probiotics#post-2197806 Wed, 03 Jun 2015 11:32:38 +0000 DesertDreams88 2197806@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, to some degree at least.... it made me less constipated and increased the need to use the restroom.. but only to a healthy degree! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-take-probiotics#post-2197792 Wed, 03 Jun 2015 11:26:14 +0000 Mamaof2 2197792@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>could you tell it was working? </p>
