I was turned on to this probiotic supplement... a woman in the store told me it was good for us celiacs. she meets with dietitians one a week at a celiac meeting.

so I when to the pharmacy to ask the pharmacist about this.. he said it would be good for me. it promotes good bacteria in the intestines.. so I've been on it for 4days nows.. taking two capsules a day.. I have had less pain.. and my bowels.. well put it this way.. my movements are non stressful and how do you say...it's a proud moment. :lol: I was wondering if anyone else has had these probiotic.. they are very expensive I paid 83.00 for bottle they have to be refrigerated. All I can say is it's been very beneficial for me....

I think many of us take probiotics, or have done so for a period in order to get gut bacteria to where they should be.

What brand are you taking? $83 is very expensive.

$83 bucks, wow that's a pricey probiotic. What is the name of the probiotic you are taking? I also think they are a good product but I think I never paid $83 bucks.

i take a multitude and don't feel quite the same effect they had when i first started with just one. is it possible to take too many? should i switch brands here and there? i wonder if they are just helping the bacteria start other problems i'll say or contributing to bad bacteria or whatever am i overwhelimg my gut with them. it seemed if i gobbled more it had a positive effect. now i can take like 10 pills at once and not even feel. (a variety of two kinds and pau d'arco)

Scotty I think you may have taken too much of a good thing. You do not need to take them indefinately. My herbalist had me on one type for 4 months (just one pill a day, although the bottle recommended 3 ) Then we switched to a different probiotic bacteria in the same brand of probiotics and I take 1 pill a day and it has been 2 months.

I take a great dairy free and gluten free probitic that costs under 30 dollars. It's made by Vinco's.

      Frequent nausea after gluten-free diet

      By petitojou · Posted

      Thank you so much! I saw some tips around the forum to make a food diary and now that I know that the community also struggles with corn, egg and soy, the puzzle pieces came together! Just yesterday I tried eating eggs and yes, he’s guilty and charged. Those there are my 3 combo nausea troublemakers. I’m going to adjust my diet ☺️ Also thank you for the information about MCAS! I’m from South America and little it’s talked about it in here. It’s honestly such a game changer now for treatment and recovery. I know I’m free from SIBO and Candida since I’ve been tested for it, but I’m still going to make a endoscopy to test for H. Pylori and Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE). Thank you again!! Have a blessed weekend 🤍

      Yes, I, too, have osteoporosis from years of malabsorption, too.  Thiamine and magnesium are what keep the calcium in place in the bones.  If one is low in magnesium, boron, selenium, zinc, copper, and other trace minerals, ones bone heath can suffer.  We need more than just calcium and Vitamin D for strong bones.  Riboflavin B 2, Folate B 9 and Pyridoxine B 6 also contribute to bone formation and strength.   Have you had your thyroid checked?  The thyroid is important to bone health as well.  The thyroid uses lots of thiamine, so a poorly functioning thyroid will affect bone heath.

      That sounds so very likely in my case! I will absolutely ask my doctor on my next bone check coming up in March... Thanks a lot!

      Calcium levels as measured in the blood can be quite deceiving as the body will rob calcium from the bones to meet demands for it by other bodily functions. Also, supplementing with calcium can be counterproductive as it tends to raise gut pH and decrease absorption. More often than not, the problem is poor absorption to begin with rather than deficiency of intake amounts in the diet. Calcium needs an acidic environment to be absorbed. This is why so many people on PPIs develop osteoporosis. The PPIs raise gut pH. And some people have high gut PH for other reasons. Low pH equates to a more acidic environment whereas high pH equates to a more basic (less acidic) environment.

      Kind thanks for all this valuable information! Since my Folate was/is low and also my Calcium, there IS a chance I am low in B vitamins... My doctor only measured the first two, oh and Zinc as I has twisted her arm and guess what, that was mega low too. So who knows, until I get myself tested properly, what else I am deficient in... I did a hair mineral test recently and it said to avoid All sources of Calcium. But this is confusing for me as my Ca is so low and I have osteoporosis because of this. It is my Adjusted Ca that is on the higher side and shouldn't be. So am not sure why the mineral test showed high Ca (well, it was medium in the test but relative to my lowish Magnesium, also via hair sample, it was high I was told). But anyway, thanks again for the VitB download, I will look into this most certainly!
