PERFECT PASSProbiotic, Natural Bacillus Spore Human Strains with 100% Survival Rate Through Stomach Acid and Bile for Gut and Digestive Wellness, Vegetarian, 30 Capsules

I am posting this review in several places, for each product mentioned in this review, in hopes that it will reach the people that may be able to benefit from what I have found has helped me.I decided to post what has been key for me in recovering my digestive health after 5 years of exposure to black mold in an office I was in, and 3 years of treatment to detox the toxins that were circulating through my system under Richie Shoemaker's 7 step protocol for the treatment of mold illness: Enzymes.First, I realized that I had to have Small Intestine Bacterial Overgrowth, SIBO. I have the symptoms. So I researched what to do about that and and found an nih study that showed that two herbal protocols are as effective if not more effective than the standard extremely expensive antibiotic protocol for the treatment of SIBO. I put myself on one of them, FC Cidal and Dysbiocide, 2 caps twice a day of each. Immediate improvement in my digestion.However, SIBO almost always comes back after the treatment, usually within 30 days. Why? Along the way of figuring out what to do about the SIBO, I started taking pancreatic enzymes. I had a test that showed I was low on pancreatic enzymes, even though I was taking them at the time. Why? Then I got a recommendation from my Health Coach, who uses a Life Biofeedback machine for energy balancing, that I should take Cholacol. Cholacol is gallbladder bile supplement. It is given to people who have had their gallbladder removed. So, Why? again, in that I have not had my gallbladder removed, but needed the supplement. More on that in a minute. It is not enough for me to just feel better, I have to know why. I will not rest until I figure out the answers.I found such improvement after starting the pancreatic enzymes and the Cholacol that I started taking Enzymedica Digest Spectrum. More improvement. So then I started researching enzymes in general. I found a book called Enzymes: Go with Your Gut by Karen DeFelice. In it she describes a protocol for taking 10 capsules per day of Enzymedica Extra Strength Enzyme Defense for 30 days to eliminate hidden viruses. I know that I have herpes simplex Type A, and would love to get rid of it, so I figured, What the heck, may as well give the protocol a try and see what happens. I started it two weeks ago. The stuff is awesome. Within 24 hours I was able to start eating things I had not been able to eat in literally years, am sleeping better, pain is almost non-existent. Also, two of my employees are out with a nasty virus, but although I also have the virus that has flattened both of them, I am not sick. I realized when I found out that they were sick that I have that virus, but for me I almost didn't realize that I had it because it has been so mild, just a runny nose for three days, and a slightly enlarged and tender lymph node under my jaw that cleared up in two days. They are both much younger than me (I am 65) and very sick. I'm not.So back to the puzzles of why SIBO comes back, and why I would need pancreatic enzyme supplements, and supplements of gallbladder bile when I haven't had my gallbladder out. This thought process took me several months this last year. I realized that the pancreas was not getting enzymes into my digestive tract and bile was not getting from the gallbladder to the digestive tract, so, therefore, it was likely that I had something blocking the flow of those products to the small intestine. I also figured out that the reason SIBO comes back is because the bile from the gallbladder controls the growth of bacteria in the small intestine, so without enough bile from the gallbladder, you can treat the SIBO, but it will come back because the bacteria will just grow back again because there isn't enough bile to control it. So finally I scoped out the connections between the liver, gallbladder, pancreas and small intestine, and discovered that stones are produced in the liver, then move to the gallbladder and the pancreas through the common ducts that connect those three organs, and the common duct that allows the pancreatic enzymes and bile from the gallbladder into the small intestine. I also had a dull ache, sometimes sharper, especially if I ate anything with sugar, carbohydrates (which convert to sugar) or fat, in the lower right quadrant of my back. Those are all symptoms, I found out, of gallstones. The allopathic response to gallstones is to yank out the gallbladder. Um, I don't think so. So I researched how to get rid of the stones that had to be blocking all those ducts through which the pancreatic enzymes and gallbladder bile should be flowing into the small intestine. I found Stone Free, and started taking that. That was also a huge help. Within 24 hours the ache in my gallbladder had eased substantially. Now I still have a very light pressure from my gallbladder, which I don't notice unless I think about it. Most people from middle age on will have stones in the gallbladder and that also block those common ducts that enable the bile and pancreatic enzymes to get to the small intestine. So most folks need to get cleaned out. Stone Free will do it.So for me, it has been the combo of several things.1. Several different types of Probiotics including Hyperbiotics Pro-15, Perfect Pass and Culturelle.2. Pancreatic enzymes and Cholacol.3. FC Cidal and Dysbiocide to eliminate the SIBO. I am in the middle of my third course of it, and both I and my Health Coach dowse that I should continue to stay on it for now, so that tells me that the blockages are still present preventing enough bile from the gallbladder getting into the small intestine, that and the still present light pressure from the gallbladder.4. Stone Free to eliminate the blockages for enzymes to get to the small intestine, supplementing with the pancreatic enzymes and Cholacol until I get everything flowing the way it should.5. Enzymedica Digest Spectrum 2 caps taken with each meal.6. Finally, the addition of the protocol of the Enzymedica Extra Strength Enzyme Defense, 5 caps twice a day on an empty stomach, for 30 days. Actually, I will probably stay on it for longer than that, but I will see what both my own dowsing and the Life Biofeedback machine have to say about that when I reach the end of the 30 days.This has finally allowed me to eat like a more or less normal human being. I still can't eat dairy products, but am otherwise eating pretty much what I want.Life is good. Hope that will be true for others that may read this post.All of the products and the book mentioned here are available from and have been purchased from Amazon.

this Prebiotic has some different strains than others, which is a good thing for gut health, so I like alternating between my two brands/kinds of prebiotic. No fillers - yay! I even open the pill and shake it into my breakfast drink every morning

This probiotic did a great job at restoring my gut health, can't say enough good things about it. Please read my story below if you are having severe gut problems. There is hope!If you suffer from IBS related symptoms and gastritis as I did (even went to the ER twice, which I'm still paying for!) here is what I did to cure myself.1) Stop taking PPIs. They are good for short-term relief but will only prolong your symptoms and make things worse in the long run. This is the only thing the doctor told me to do, which is to take a PPI. I was on it for four months with temporary relief, but the pain and sometimes overwhelming nausea always seemed to return with a vengeance.2) Heal your gut - After months of research, and reading medical journals and articles, while on the PPI, the science proves it's your gut that is the problem. More specifically your gut bacteria. If your doctor says there is no scientific evidence to support gut flora being the cause of your IBS, get a doctor that keeps up with science in medicine. There is a ton of research out there thanks to the human microbiome project.Once I learned this and did research on which probiotics were the best to rebuild the protective layer of the gut, I bought these.(Perfect Pass Probiotic Bacillus Spore Human Strain)(Swanson L. Reuteri Probiotic Plus with L. Rhamnosus L. Acidophilus & FOS Prebiotic Digestive Support)(Hyperbiotics Organic Prebiotic Powder)Also, you need to change your diet. Stop smoking, no alcohol, sweets, or bad carbs. The absolute best thing is to try to switch to a vegetarian diet mostly, but if you are like I was, even a heavy salad made your stomach extremely uncomfortable (almost had to leave work twice). So for about two months straight I ate jasmine rice, roasted chicken and gravy, and tried to get in a little veggie. My family is sick of chicken and rice! Now that I'm back to normal I'm switching to a heavy veggie diet. I NEVER want to go through that again!!!!!!! Gotta keep those little buggers in my gut flourishing and happy.So the chronology of my journey is this:First two months, two ER visits, and a bunch of tests that all came back negative. Sound familiar? Oh yeah, I was also put on three courses of antibiotics. Why was I on them? No idea! The test for H. Pylori came back negative!Next four months on PPI and doing my own research, because I got fed up with the doctor not being able to tell me why I had gastritis and not caring what the cause was, also started to change my diet after reading Fast Tract Digestion.Next two months on probiotics and prebiotics.It actually took less time to heal my gut than the doctor had me on the PPI. I know some may say I may have been on the mend already, but all I can say to that is it sure as heck didn't feel like it.

I have been using Perfect Pass Probiotic for years now. I have used other Probiotics in the past but perfect pass is the best one i have used. I have struggled with Ulcerative Colitis and Pouchitis for years. Using Probiotics has saved me from having to be on powerful antibiotics for the rest of my life. I have cured myself using this when a highly known Clinic told me that my only option was to take antibiotics. I was not going to do that with all the side effects from them. Probiotics have literally saved me!

Unfortunately this probiotic didn’t work for me. It made me very bloated and gassy, and the symptoms didn’t improve with time. Will be looking for a different strain/ type of probiotics.

Didn't work for me, I have SIBO-C. Made me awfully bloated. That is strange, because I know B. Subtilis is good for me.

Herpes, HIV/AIDS are not bacteria, they are viruses and they do not produce biofilms. Morgellons is not currently recognized as any specific disease, just a combination of neurological symptoms with no discernible cause. Please do not base your decision to purchase or not purchase on this review. While it may not have worked for you and you can say that with no problem, adding information which is not true, is not helpful to others trying to make a decision.I tried this through a friend and was impressed with how ell it helped me with symptoms of indigestion. Resolved very quickly.
