Probiotics with extra benefits

I’ve been taking probiotics since the day I was diagnosed with IBS, and two little capsules twice a day have made my life a whole lot better. I never expected anything more from them than helping keep bloating at bay, so when I learned about a relatively new line of probiotic supplements called Probiogen that offers more targeted formulas, I was intrigued.

From allergy relief and balance for stress and mood to weight management and formulas for women, men and 55+, these supplements offer problem-specific probiotic strains along with antioxidants and herbal ingredients to tackle a wide array of concerns. They’re also vegetarian and free of dairy, soy, gluten and GMOs—and they don’t need to be refrigerated, which is an added bonus.

I’ve been the Stress & Mood Balance for a few weeks now, and I have to say I’ve been a bit more calm (which has been a challenge since my son left for camp—for 7 weeks—this morning). For the record, I’ve been bloat-free as well. I also have the Allergy Relief on deck for once I’m finished with my first bottle, and it will be interesting to see if they help with the stuffiness and sneezing that requires Allegra-D every morning. Stay tuned for updates!
