This is a fantastic product! I am a nurse practitioner and have been diagnosed with bowel issues (IBS-C). I used to take prescription meds to manage my condition (kind of manage), the results weren't consistent and less than impressive. I am finally on a routine without prescription medication, and it includes taking this probiotic every night! I have 1 solid bowel movement daily without taking stimulant laxatives. I practice functional medicine, and am very particular about the supplements I use. I research them fairly extensively. Would absolutely recommend this raw probiotic from CODEAGE!!!!
