Has anyone tried this? Heather, do you have any information or suggestions regarding this product? Product information below: "Digestive Advantage™ IBS contains a patented probiotic, GanedenBC30 that can help support digestive function. GanedenBC30 are specially isolated cultures that are protected by a hardened layer of organic material that enables their survival through your acidic stomach environment and successfully arrive to your intestines – where they can have the most benefit."
Thank you.

there are a few strains specifically tested for IBS, and DA is one of them. They definitely can't hurt, and might well really help. If you're taking the Tummy Fiber, have it with the probiotics, because the fiber is prebiotic, so it encourages the growth of the probiotics in the gut.
Best, H

I talked to my doctor about this and tried it awhile back. He told me he had patients who swore by it and patients who said it didn't work. I decided to try it and I took it for about a month and it didn't help me at all. The only thing I find that works is the IBS diet and fiber.

I have been taking this for about 3 months. I have noticed a slight improvment, but it has not been a "miracle cure" for me or anything like that. I will keep taking it until I run out of pills but will most likely not restock. The thing that seems to improve my symptoms the most is just peppermint pills and controlling my eating habits.
