Lactobacillus effectively reduces diarrhea
We explored the impact of Lactobacillus salivarius SNK-6 on treating and preventing diarrhea in pigeons. In our research, we compared healthy pigeons with those infected with specific strains of E. coli known to cause diarrhea. After administering L. salivarius SNK-6, we observed a notable reduction in diarrhea among treated pigeons, while control pigeons still experienced a 10% incidence of diarrhea. This suggests that boosting levels of Lactobacillus can help maintain a healthy balance in the gut, potentially preventing diarrhea in the future.

Probiotics improve IBS management
We explored the impact of adding probiotics, specifically two Lactobacillus strains, to standard treatment for patients with diarrhea-predominant irritable bowel syndrome (IBS-D). In a randomized, single-blinded trial, 100 patients were divided into two groups—one receiving standard care and the other receiving probiotics along with the standard treatment over 12 weeks.

Both groups showed improvement in IBS symptoms, but the group receiving probiotics experienced greater reductions. Notably, 100% of probiotic-treated patients saw either full remission or mild symptoms, contrasting with 14.3% from the standard treatment. Overall, these findings suggest probiotics can significantly enhance IBS management.

Bifidobacterium BGN4 shows promise
We examined how a special strain of Bifidobacterium bifidum, known as BGN4-SK, can help alleviate diarrhea associated with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). This strain produces beneficial antioxidant enzymes that defend against inflammation and strengthen the gut's barrier function.

Our findings showed that BGN4-SK significantly reduces inflammation in the gut, leading to improved symptoms of colitis. However, another strain, BGN4-pBESIL10, showed limited effects in enhancing anti-inflammatory responses.

Overall, BGN4-SK appears promising in treating diarrhea related to IBD by addressing underlying inflammation.

Effective treatment

I recently had a severe flu and took antibiotics, raising the need for probiotics. I chose the 21st Century Acidophilus Probiotic Blend after reading reviews. The capsules are large but easy to swallow, with no taste. I took one daily while on antibiotics, and it worked well; I had no issues with diarrhoea afterwards. It seemed effective in maintaining digestive balance. I would recommend it for its action, effect, cost, and the number of capsules.

Prevented diarrhoea

My family required probiotics while taking antibiotics, so we opted for the 21st Century Health Care Acidophilus Probiotic Blend. The capsules are easy to swallow and have no flavour. We gave them to our son while on antibiotics, and it worked well; he had no diarrhoea. My parents took it too, with the same positive result. The probiotics delivered the expected benefits without any problems, making it a worthwhile purchase.

Probiotics aid IBS-D treatment outcomes
We explored the impact of Lactobacillus acidophilus and L. plantarum on patients suffering from diarrhea-predominant irritable bowel syndrome (IBS-D). In a randomized, single-blinded clinical trial of 100 patients, some received standard IBS treatment alone while others added probiotics to their therapy.

After 12 weeks, both groups saw improvements, but those who took probiotics reported significantly better outcomes. Patients using probiotics experienced greater reductions in IBS symptoms, achieving near complete relief, while some on standard treatment still faced moderate symptoms. This suggests probiotics could enhance IBS management.

Acidophilus shows potential for diarrhea relief
We examined how acidophilus combined with montmorillonite powder impacts diarrhea in children suffering from rotavirus enteritis. In our study, 94 children were randomized into two groups. While one group received standard treatment plus montmorillonite, the other was given acidophilus.

The group taking acidophilus had faster relief from diarrhea, vomiting, fever, and dehydration. Their overall effectiveness rate was also high at nearly 96%. Although they showed some improvement in inflammatory markers, this was not statistically significant.

Both treatments had a good safety profile, making this combination a promising option for symptom relief.

We explored the impact of multistrain probiotics, specifically Sensi-Biome, on diarrhea in a controlled rat model. The results showed that the probiotics led to significant improvements in stool moisture, intestinal movement, and pH levels.

Interestingly, serotonin levels decreased, indicating a potential link to how these probiotics affect gut health. While some positive changes were observed, the overall findings suggest that while Sensi-Biome has potential, its effectiveness in controlling diarrhea may vary and doesn’t guarantee relief in every instance.

Probiotic improves diarrhea relief
We evaluated the role of the probiotic Neobiotic Lactobalance® in alleviating diarrhea linked to irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and antibiotic-associated diarrhea (AAD).

Our study involved 54 patients who took one capsule daily for 21 days.

We found significant reductions in diarrhea symptoms and abdominal discomfort, particularly in those with IBS and AAD. Microbiota analysis revealed improvements in beneficial bacteria levels, suggesting that this probiotic can help restore gut health and reduce diarrhea severity effectively.

Prevents constipation
5 people found this helpful
After taking this product daily for three months, I no longer experience constipation or stomach gas. It effectively aids in digestion and has allowed me to maintain smooth bowel movements without discomfort, including diarrhoea. The large bottle with 150 capsules is quite economical, enough for about five months of use.

No benefit observed
6 people found this helpful
I began taking this drug during antibiotic treatment as directed, but it had no effect. I increased the dosage, yet after finishing the antibiotics, diarrhea continued. I sought help from the pharmacy instead. I attempted to ferment milk based on positive reviews, but it spoiled. I tried the probiotics again, but constipation set in. Ultimately, this product was a waste of money and time, and didn't help my digestion or immunity.

Normalises bowel movement
6 people found this helpful
I often order these probiotics due to their exceptional value. We take them twice a year to boost our immune system and digestive health, especially during antibiotic treatment. They effectively normalise intestinal microflora, enhance digestion, and eliminate issues like constipation and diarrhea. We've been sick much less often since using them. Definitely repurchasing!

Despite its affordability, this probiotic has significantly improved my digestive health, especially regarding my irritable bowel syndrome. After taking it before bed, my stools were normalised, and I experienced less abdominal discomfort. While I’ve tested other probiotics without success, this remains the best value and effective for my needs.

Active intestines

I've been using iHerb's best-selling probiotics for months, but my intestinal diarrhoea didn’t improve. However, I was surprised by this supplement, which activated my intestines, completely eliminating diarrhoea and unpleasant odours. I recommend 2 tablets before bed and 1 in the morning, adjusting based on your health.

Probiotics may shorten diarrhea duration
We explored the effectiveness of probiotics, specifically those available in Japan, on children suffering from acute gastroenteritis. By reviewing 14 randomized controlled studies, we observed that children taking probiotics experienced diarrhea almost a day earlier than those on placebo.

Furthermore, hospital stays were also shorter for the probiotic group. However, it’s important to note that the evidence regarding these benefits is very weak. While there’s some promise in using probiotics for treating diarrhea, we remain cautious about the strength of these findings.

Probiotics may reduce diarrhea incidence
We examined the impact of probiotics on critically ill patients requiring mechanical ventilation. This comprehensive review combined data from thirty meta-analyses, specifically focusing on clinical outcomes like ventilator-associated pneumonia, infection rates, and length of hospital stays.

Remarkably, we found that probiotics reduced incidents of diarrhea among other complications. However, we also noted that the effectiveness varied due to the different types of probiotics studied. Overall, probiotics may serve as supportive treatment, but we cannot definitively recommend a specific probiotic approach.
