Does anybody else find that prebiotics and perhaps probiotics are a waste of money?
When I almost two years ago started taking Benefiber powder, I never felt better than I did the first couple of days.
My stomach was emptying at a record pace, clearing up my c.
However within a few weeks, while my stomach didn't regress, the relief started to diminsh.
I didn't feel that great anymore and it seemed to have been a big boost only short term.
Since then I have added prescription Miralax and Acidphillus Probiotic.
I also tried Heather's Acadia.
I don't really feel anything substantial.
It feels as if, taking a prebiotic at first helps a ton, but then the body gets used to it, adjusts, and it's losses it's effectiveness.
It's like if I stop now my C might get worse, but if I continue it's not likely to improve.
The prebiotic seems to only help noticably at first after which it appears to just keep things from getting much worse, which even now isn't suceeding.
I wanted to know if others have had this experience and if you can suggest anything.
I have thought about switching, but to what?
I tried Citrucell and Acadia, both of which were no different, less if anything effective than Benefiber.
I could increase the does, I take two utensial NOT tablespoon spoons per day.
However that could be counterproductive or if helpful, last short term.
I'm getting frustrated spending time, effort, and my money on products which give mixed at best results.
I don't want to quit in a fit of rage and hurt myself yet I don't want to needlsy invest.
Thanks.
