I've started using Primal Defense and I was wondering if anyone else has used it and how did it go for you?

Hi Corrine,
I was wondering if the primal defense was working for you.
You mention last time that it slowed down the d. I've really been considering trying this, I'm pretty stable now,
trying the acacia supplement for the first time today. I work with public and see about 500 customers a day. I want to protect my body against any unwanted flu's or colds this season. Hope your doing well. Thanks Sherri

So far it seems like it's working great. It takes time to build up to the recommended dosage but I've been there for almost a month now and have been pretty stable. I still hit the bathroom more often than most people but it's not D. My BM's are much more normal and there is no where near as much discomfort. I wouldn't say I'm all better as I still have a bad day here and there but I'm certainly much better than I was. It's been recommended to me that I remain at the high dosage for 6 months and then come back to the maintenance dosage. So five more months to go. I'm also following Heather's diet but sneaking in beef about once a week. That's going great so far as beef has been very tough for me to give up. I also drink goat's milk and that's been great too!

Hi Corrine!
I actually heard about this about 1 month ago and ordered these pills. They've been sitting in my house because I am kind of leary about taking them. Do you know if they are ok to take with birth control pills? This is my only concern since that is the only thing that I take besides a vitamin. I am constantly constipated and have read that this may cure/help extreme cases of IBS. I also have high cholesterol, which this says helps that as well... Any words of advice would be GREATLY appreciated!
Thanks!

I take Primal Defense with my BC pills...not a prob! Just make sure to take on an empty stomach.
Probiotics are PERFECT SAFE...and they're VERY HEALTHY! I have only heard good things about Primal Defense and all of Garden of Life Products!
Feel good, let us know how you do!

Hi all!
I've been at the high dosage for four months now and have noticed a great improvement. I can confidently track any bad day to it's source such as lack of sleep or some food I probably shouldn't have eaten! (or so much of that food). I still have some bad days but I also have two more months to go and a sick kid. I pray that he will soon be healed but I believe the Lord is still working on me! It is expensive but it's worth it. I've had so much more freedom since I've started this treatment.

It's a probiotic that helps to replace the naturally occuring flora in the gut. Here's a link.

Do you still take this Ruchie? Does anyone think it is worth the money? I've heard wonderful things about it from the HFS employees...but I've also heard of it referred to as "the garden of Lies" instead of "the garden of Life"! 
Anyone currently finding success with this probiotic for IBS-C?

I have heard tons of folks have success with Dr. Ruben's products. I have to be honest...I did not...but I was on antibiotics at the time and my whole syste/body needed a SERIOUS makeover! I had to get off sugar, dairy, and gluten to get results from anything all the way. So I am not a good judge of his products. I also didn't take them properly as I was a mess (in more ways than one) when I took them. I THINK I recall they helped with my IBS C to normalcy...but this was a couple of years ago...
Sorry for rambling! Bottom line: I just don't know I'm sorry Beth *hugs*
