Is it worth trying probiotics if so which one
KarinaMember
Hi , probiotics works well for some people but not for everyone. Depending on the symptoms that you have, there are different probiotics that can work. I would ask your doctor or a pharmacist about it so they recommend one to you.Personally, I have taken different probiotics over the years. Some worked well, others did nothing at one point but worked when I tried them years later... I'm going to link a couple of our articles about probiotics here: https://irritablebowelsyndrome.net/treatment/probiotics, https://irritablebowelsyndrome.net/food/prebiotics-probiotics-constipation, https://irritablebowelsyndrome.net/living/probiotics-worth-money. I hope this helps. Please let us know if you end up trying probiotics! Karina (team member)
