So i been wondering about taking Probiotics to help with digestion and to become more normal. Has anyone tried any or have any suggestions ? Whats the word on Probiotics?

I have irritable bowel syndrome. Probiotics is a large part of my daily regimen. I swear by them. I talked to my surgeon and he is very on board with it. I am on a regimen of Fiber as well. It is important for me to be diligent in order for me to be 'regular' and minimize my IBS flare-ups.

I have IBS too but have noticed w weight loss I have not had a severe episode requiring meds. I have not been sleeved yet but was wondering if u had any improvements since the sleeve?

When did you start taking them.after your surgery? I was good no fiber or probiotics until 6 weeks.

My doctor also suggested probiotics because I would get a lot of gas... they really help.

Is there a certain brand that you would recommend ? are they all pretty much the same ?

I haven't been sleeved as of yet. I go next Thursday. I am hoping that by changing my entire way of eating will help with the IBS. My intestinal tract has been my Achilles heal my whole life. All of my stress is connected to my intestines!

I use Schiff brand Digestive Advantage Intense Bowel Support. I also use Fiber capsules in addition. I have found that the combination of both help keep my flare-ups to a minimum. It's been a long time since I've had problems, but then I haven't missed a day, either.
