Hi all.

I started taking a probiotic almost 2 weeks ago. So far, I am very pleased with the results. Seems to have firmed things up and the frequency has slowed a bit. Unfortunately, the side effects have been gas and gas pain. Does anyone take anything for these side effects? Or do you even get the gas? Does it get better? Go away?

I don't want to get into taking "A" to fix that, then taking "B" to offset the side effects of "A",...and so on.

Thanks guys.

Barb

    Hey gas girl!
    Try taking digestive enzymes with your meals to help with the gas. I swear by them. I use Super Enzymes by NOW but there are other brands out there.

    So very glad you're getting good results. Probiotics really work like you have discovered.

    I tried to post on your PooPoo page back when you posted it but it was when the boards were acting up and I couldn't post my reply.

    It may have had something to do with poo and pools but not torpedos or speedos or anything like that!

    peace, emily
