Life Extension Bifido GI Balance, probiotics, Bifidobacterium longum BB536® (2 Billion CFU), Support Healthy Gut & Digestive Health, Gluten-Free, Non-GMO, Vegetarian, 60 Capsules

i just started taking these past month...usually take 1 a day...sometimes 2...but i can already tell a huge difference in gut health...i do take other vits... extra mag, d, c, etc...per doc orders...i will continue this product for sure.

I like this brand and strain, it's live and did successfully make a tangy fermented dairy product. I don't believe this strain should be fermented for 36 hrs but more around 20-24 hrs. Can Google and find good references for temperature and time.

I have used other products, this is the only one that works

Works as stated

Life Extension is a brand I trust and I decided to purchase their Bifido GI Balance after a GI MAP test recommended I take more bifido based probiotics. So naturally, I searched Amazon to see what was offered. I always tend to gravitate towards this brand because I have yet to be disappointed by their quality products.

This bacterial strain consistently fermented milk, indicating that it is viable and capable of functioning as a probiotic when consumed. In contrast, other strains I tested were not viable and failed to support fermentation. This experience highlights that dead probiotic cultures are frequently sold, making it important to verify viability. I appreciate that this product performed as expected.

If you're having digestive issues, that stuff in yogurt might be all you need, but if not, use this. After having a super dose of antibiotics a years ago, my colon has given me nothing but trouble and its worse now than it started out being. The yogurt stuff helped but not enough. Acidopholis, I think it is. Does not help really much, though I've no doubt that making sure you have some is beneficial. But this type of culture. Yes. For the first time in years, I can eat potatoes without being sent to the toilet repeatedly later. I'd kill to be able to eat onions, cabbage, basically any type of vegetable at all. But not trying them all at once. I am sure now that I can eat my favorite dried beans (not from a can), and potatoes. Probably also carrots and will be trying sweet potatoes next. Those would truly all send me to the.. well you know. Much as I love onions and garlic, they will be some of the last ones I try out. I mean it was so bad that even onion powder would do it.Now, I can at least have frozen foods that have green onions and garlic in them safely. But I dont eat either those things nor canned foods much anyway. Too much sodium plus they don't taste really great.

I was taking this probiotic for constipation. However, like many other reviewers here I also got anxiety from this probiotic. Plus--it also gave me brain fog. So I switched to the Life Extension Florassist Probiotic Daily Bowel Regularity Bifidobacterium Lactis HN019 (which is also available here on Amazon) and that one did not give me anxiety or brain fog. I take the HN019 form at night before I go to bed and I'm able to sleep and have a good BM in the morning.
