I have noticed that I have been bloated the past week and it has been harder to have a bowel movement. Will this ease up in time by taking these or is this going to be the side effect. I am taking the Vitamin Shoppe Ultimate “10″ Probiotic . Please help and only serious responses. Thanks for advice..

That is the exact opposite of the effect they usually have – in fact, they are often used for constipation – now the gas doesn’t surprise me – thats a temporary effect. Try it another week – increase your water and fiber intake (nothing drastic – an extra glass or two and maybe a bowl of whole grain cereal) and see what happens….

if the probiotic did not come from the refrigerated section in the store, get another brand. dry on the shelf is dead. probiotics are living organisms that we need.
