Swanson L. Reuteri Probiotic Plus with L. Rhamnosus, L. Acidophilus & FOS Prebiotic for Gut-Health-Conscious Adults - 7 Billion CFU (30 Vegan Capsules, 3 Pack)

Have tried other brands of L. Reuteri but this one has been the best for me. Preface - back in 2000 i got mono (presumed) and got hit with back to back strep throat infections (6 total in a 6 month span), each one worse then the last. Losts of anitbiotics. To this day Im still very susceptible to bacterial throat infections and get them roughly once a month (not exaggerating and no, having tonsils removed would not stop it from happening) I say all this because that was the beginning of my horrible anxiety and misophonia (yup a few noises drove me to irrational rage/anger), loss of interest in a lot of stuff (but not quite depression just no real motavation). I stumbled upon L. Reuteri and its benefits (probabaly from the same source many reading these reviews found) I listened and researched up on it. And just was like omg that explains so many of my "symptoms perfectly" This was an inexpensive and low stakes possible solution (remedy) and i went for it. The results for me were short of amazing. 1. My anxiety drastically lowered, I didnt wake up feeling like the world was gonna end so why bother, leaving the house became easier. I still have anxiety (caused by other things) but overall its so much more mangable and I don't freak out when theres something hard to do now, I just feel calmer overall. 2. Misophonia lessened, noises didn't make me want to punch the wall or hulk out. My bf snores and i can actually fall asleep next to him while he's snoring (unless its the loud loud one but not because it makes me angry just because its loud) cause again it doesnt bother me at all anymore. I can actually tune it out better in a way. 3. My muscles are actually getting toned up now. For years I spent countless time doing squats and other exercises (I still do them by the way) and nothing... my butt just stayed flat. No exercise ever worked to tone up any of my muscles. Walking up hill for months didnt do anything, riding a bike for miles every day for years didnt do anything. It was like I was stuck. Then I took this and boom - within a week (yup a week) I noticed my butt was perkier you could actually see where my butt ended and my thigh began, I actually had a more lifted rounded behind... only thing I changed was this supplement. My stomach bloating went away also, so my stomach was flatter and when I worked out I could actually feel muscle soreness in places I never could before. (Im giving a breakdown so hopefully this all makes sense. 4. I found things funny again. Not that I didnt laugh before all this. Its that I found more stuff funny. Watching tv, I'd laugh at even the stupid jokes. I ultimately just felt happier (again i wasnt depressed, I'd get sad occassionally, but depression, no, infact anti-depressants would always make me worse hate them) 5. New hair growth, and less hair fall. I take birth control which causes a lot of hair loss (they never tell you this by the way) I had lost nearly half my hair volume (I have a lot so it made me sad but didnt look like I was balding) anyway.... again within in a week I noticed way (and I mean way way) less hair falling out. My hair would be every where in the house (on tables, couches, floor etc) my bf noticed it also (I never told him about how i noticed but he quickly noticed my hair wasnt every where anymore. I’ve also noticed new growth especially around my hair line, when I put my hair in a pony tail baby hairs fall down out of the pony tail, again, I havent had baby hairs fall down like that in over 10 years, its been a long long while. And taking a shower I have very few hairs come out (maybe 5 ish hairs) where before I'd be nearly in tears because just washing my hair would have a handful of hair (about 50ish hairs) Those are the major things I've noticed. Im certain there is more but I cant think of them at the moment. I really like the packaging also. This company doesn’t put the 30 capsules in some big over sized bottle. Its a small bottle filled completely so they (in my opinion) do their best to avoid using too much plastic. The capsules have no taste are small and super easy to swallow. I just take them as is. I have not tried to make yougurt with them (maybe one day). Suggestion - take these (finish the bottle) every time you take antibiotics (directly after finishing the course prescribed) Start taking these if you've taken a lot of antibiotics in the past. Im so glad I found out about this. And I hope that they can do for you what they did for me. Im so much happier and healthier with these.

Love this probiotic! It works to keep my digestive system healthy and even helps keep my weight down

Ive been taking this for awhile. I have a lot of stomach issues and this seems to help me.

Naturally easy to swallow. I personally felt 1) digestion in lower gi better! I felt mentally bit quicker, like a small improvement in recall and Maybe some pudgy weight loss? So this is funny, cause I am old, but felt warm kinda affection towards others. I plan on taking this non stop. And make it in yogurt per Dr. Berg, btw great video and how I became familiar with L. Reurteri and this super product. The Capsules are easy to swallow and if one is not able to make it in yogurt, Its the awesome answer. m

Relative improvement in health though other factors have to be considered. I have had no issues.

I break these capsules open when I make L. Reuteri yogurt at home. I got a great deal on them, and make yogurt every 2 weeks. Seems to be effective.

I got this to prepare reuteri yogurt and it turned out perfect from the first batch! I've only used one capsule so far. It produced 1 liter of thick yogurt. And for every next batch I've been using 2 tablespoons of the previous batch for the past 5 batches or so. Definitely would recommend this for the reuteri yogurt starter!

I made a small batch of yogurt as a starter for doing full / large batches. Ingredients: 2 Capsules of this probiotic, and 1/4 gallon lactose free whole milk. Using a clean instant pot, add 1/4 gallon milk. Press yogurt button a couple times until it says boil. Let it run. When it is finished, put the pot of boiled milk into the sink which has cold water in it, and let the milk cool down to luke warm. I usually check the temp, and this time it cooled to approx. 85 degrees f. Move the milk back to the instant pot machine, and whisk in 2 capsules of probiotic. Press yogurt button again, set timer for 18 hours. I removed the glass lid I use for this a few times and wiped the water off it using a clean paper towel. This was just to help the yogurt to not be too watery. When the time was up, I poured the yogurt into a jam-strainer bag (fine mesh) and let the whey & water drain off for about 1 hour. Then refrigerated. To my surprise, it came out the best I have ever made. I've tried bulgarian cultures (from amazon) and commercial greek yogurt in the past, both of which were pretty good. This L. Reuteri yogurt however, came out rich and full of flavor. It will make a wonderful starter for the next full batch I make! I gave a small bowl of it to my chickens who absolutely LOVED IT and ate every speck they could get. There are published research papers on L. Reuteri describing the health benefits of it. Thank you, Swanson, this was an excellent purchase!!
