Kyo-Dophilus Multi 9 Probiotic

Good for my gut health

This product has helped tremendously with my gut problems.

I must have tried 20 different types of probiotics over many years...I'd use up a bottle and then think "I'm still bloated....or I'm still constipated, or I don't feel any better....or sometimes I feel worse"....It's very frustrating not knowing which probiotic to buy or which one is likely to feel it matches your particular digestive system. And theprices vary so much it's ridiculous. I've bought some of the most expensive probiotics...I've even had nutritionistssuggest something specific for me to take and still I didn't feel it was right...I tend to give away my unused bottlesand will do that when I'm sure it's not working but don't want to throw the bottle away.... I've tried different forms of probiotics: powders, pearls, refrigerated probiotics, probiotics for my blood type, soil based, chewable, probiotics stating they were specifically for constipation, or specifically for emotional health...and still they didn't work. So I started with the Kyo Dophilus probiotic many months ago... the version that contains only 3 different strains...I was transitioning off of a brand I thought I liked only to realize I was having stomach pains during the night and constipation in the morning...A few weeks on the less strong version of Kyo, taking one pill in the AM and one at night....I finished a bottle and thought "I like this but I'm wondering if it's enough"....I then started reading about this 9 strain formula. Seems like reviews were good and most people liked it....although some didn't and some thought it might be too strong....So with a few pills left in my other bottle....the 3 strain variety, I started adding one of these pills with dinner....and when I ran out of the 3 strain, which I was then taking once a day... I was taking only the 9 straintwice a day...I noticed a difference after about a week....I wasn't getting stomach pains in the middle of the night...I was still a bit gassy sometimes but hardly ever constipated anymore......but often that is due to the large amounts of vegetables I began eating....plus large salads and a lot of onions and garlic....I found as I started taking this probiotic, I was no longer wanting sweet foods...It's not that I disliked sweets but I found myself actually craving more vegetables and salads as strange as this sounds. I feel the integrity of my gut flora is changing....my micro biome might actually be starting to become more balanced and healed..... I could never figure out what to do, what to take in the way of good bacteria....I'm allergic to dairy and can't eat yogurt...I tried making cultured vegetables but it's a ton of workand I knew I wouldn't make or eat cultured vegetables daily....But I think I might have come upon the best probiotic I"ve ever tried...It just feels right...and I'm not sure why. I would have thought so many other brands must be very similar. But obviously they are not all the same...I also thought changing around brands of probiotics might be helpful, just to insure I'd get as many different strains into my body as possible....but some of the more expensive brands seemed to make me feel terrible...So for the price, and I do love Kyo as a brand, this purchase was a great one. I feel pretty confident I won't want to be trying other brands....I feel I found something that really works!

I have UC and bad IBS and I have been taking probiotics for over 20 years, I’ve even had the prescription ones. I feel like I have to switch them every so often bc my body gets used to them. Just some background, I used to work at a health/vitamin store for years (loved it) and really go all out learning about supplements, reviewing the data and researcher, and trying what I believe to be beneficial to me. It’s important with our guts y’all, it is like your second brain so take good care of it! I decided to try these with the other daily kyo-dophilus (orange label) because I got extremely sick (UC flare) and I have to say these are fantastic! I tried the 2 separate and together and I love them both so I take them every morning with my big water bottle, and my fiber (they help each other work together but do your own research and make sure yours will as well bc not all fiber is created them same!). Keep them in your fridge after you open them. Also everyone is different so please try things for yourself and see what works with your own body, and start small with one thing at a time so you know if it helps you. Good luck!

I’ve been taking these for over a month. I do think they are helping a bit.

I have suffered from stomach cramping and gas my entire life. As a child in elementary school I would often be sent home with severe cramping that would be way too distracting for me to stay at school. Somehow, no one back then thought to test for anything, or experiment with diet or supplements to give me relief. I grew up just thinking that is how my life was going to be, that I would just have to deal with it forever. As I got older I slowly started learning about nutrition and herbal supplements. I eventually started learning about naturally fermented foods and the probiotics they contain. I started fermenting myself making kombucha, sauerkraut, lacto-fermented vegetables, etc. and for the first time in my life I was able to actually find relief. I am a huge fan of ferments, BUT these things take time to do and I'm not always on the ball enough to get it all going and able to be constantly ready. Often I will finish a jar of kraut and not have another one started so I will have to wait a week or two for the new batch to get going...if I even get around to starting another batch right away. This is when I started to consider probiotic pills to fill in the gaps.I've tried a few different brands of probiotics but this one is the only one I have actually noticed a difference with. Since it can be so hard (and expensive) to find a probiotic that actually works I am going to stick with this one for a while. So glad to be done with that search.

I’ve been using this for years and it works great! Highly recommended and worth the price.

Yes, very specific the title but it really helped me to soften my stool after having my c section. It has been a game changer. Totally recommend this product.
