Dr. MercolaComplete Probiotics 70 Billion Cfu 90 Capsules

Great product but when delivered in a warm bottle, they are useless and a waste of money.

I have been researching probiotics for about a year or so. I felt the need to be proactive after experiencing increasing digestive issues (sour stomach, ect.). I started out with a cheaper probiotic that I purchased from Walgreen Drugs (Finest brand), which promptly gave me a terrible case of super-high-intensity-turbo-farts. I then graduated to a 50 Billion-count probiotic manufactured by Jarrow. I believe it was Jarrow's "Jarro-Dophilus" formula. I had good results from this product, but it required refrigeration and I wasn't sure if the product had been properly stored prior to my receiving it. Let's face it, from the time of manufacture, then time spent in shipping, then sitting in a distributor's warehouse, then being processed during the ordering process, then the shipping time to my house …. I find it hard to believe that the proper cold temperature was maintained all during that time. I figured that by the time it was in my hands that most of the 50-billion active cultures were dead. I then researched some more and found Dr. Mercola's Complete Probiotics. One big drawback to Dr. Mercola's product was the in-your-face marketing approach he uses to hawk his products to the public … kinda like an old-school snake-oil salesman. Aside from that, his Complete Probiotic had good reviews and contained the Lactobacillus Acidophilus DDS-1 strain, which I know to be essential and not found in many other probiotic products. Complete Probiotics calls for a dose of two 35-billion-strength capsules per day = 70 billion. That's a lot, but I found that I (surprisingly) tolerated the high dose comfortably. with no adverse effects. Within days I was feeling noticeably better in my digestive tract and and eating, without any problems at all, the spicy, delicious Mexican foods that I had to previously avoid. I also discovered that I was sleeping better, without having to jump out of bed with the occasional problem of "bowelis-interuptus." Another unexpected benefit I discovered (and I attribute this to Dr. Mercola's Complete Probiotics) is an improvement in my blood glucose levels. Since going through extensive chemotherapy a few years ago, I developed Type II Diabetes. It's been a struggle to keep my glucose levels in check, but a recent visit with my doctor showed a marked overall improvement in my lab reports. Of course, the only change I had made was my daily use of Dr. Mercola's Complete Probiotics, so it is only logical for me to give it all the credit. Another good thing about Dr. Mercola's Complete Probiotic is the fact that it does NOT have to be refrigerated. That gives me a comfort level that I did not have with the Jarrow product since I felt that most all of the active cultures were still living and viable. Overall, I am very happy with Dr. Mercola's Complete Probiotic and I am about to order more. Yes, it is one of the more quality probiotic products on the market and I highly recommend it.

These are my fav probiotics

I tried a bottle of this and everything seemed great. Then I ran out and switched back to a brand I had previously used, big mistake! I had some issues for a few days! I immediately ordered more of this stuff and problem solved! You don't realize how good this stuff is until you stop taking it and you feel the difference.

Highly recommended by our Chiropractor. Use periodically to promote better gut flora...

I looked into taking a pro-biotic because i was having problems going. I was having some gas and constant uti and yeast infections. I have only been taking this for about 2 weeks and already i notice a big difference. Its easier for me to go and i go more fully. my gas is easier to pass and i havent noticed any adverse effects. This was one of the only ones that had this many different strands of bacteria and includes a pre biotic which is food for the bacteria. Also because of being acid and bile resistant these stay in your system longer. Also i found his informational videos very informational and helpful for me to understand why its so imperative to keep your gut healthy and in balance. I highly recommend these.
