Top Medical Research Studies

We investigated how a new blend of Bifidobacterium longum BB536 and Lactobacillus rhamnosus HN001, along with vitamin B6, impacts bloating in patients with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS).

In a study involving 25 IBS patients, we found that those receiving this treatment experienced a significant reduction in bloating, with a 36.35% improvement compared to those on placebo, who actually experienced more bloating.

Overall, this formulation not only alleviated bloating but also eased abdominal pain and improved gut health, showcasing promising results for IBS symptom management.

Probiotic improves gastrointestinal symptoms
We explored how the probiotic ID-JPL934, which includes Lactobacillus johnsonii and Bifidobacterium lactis, can relieve lower gastrointestinal symptoms, particularly bloating.

In a study with 112 participants, we compared those taking the probiotic against a placebo group. Results showed significant improvements in abdominal pain and bloating among those using ID-JPL934.

Moreover, we noted an increase in beneficial bacteria levels after treatment, suggesting that this probiotic might significantly enhance gut health and comfort.

Probiotics reduce bloating post-surgery
We explored the impact of probiotic supplementation on gastrointestinal issues following Roux-en-Y gastric bypass. In a well-structured trial, participants were divided into a group receiving Lactobacillus acidophilus and Bifidobacterium lactis and another receiving a placebo.

While both groups showed similar rates of small intestine bacterial overgrowth, those taking the probiotics reported significantly less bloating. They experienced some additional gastrointestinal symptoms but overall felt better in terms of bloating.

Ultimately, the probiotics were effective for managing bloating without affecting SIBO development.

Reduced bloating effects
These are very easy to swallow. I have noticed less bloating and gas, and my feminine area is less prone to dryness and irritation. My body truly appreciates the benefits of this product. I have been purchasing it for a long time. Please consult your doctor before taking anything new if you are uncertain, as I am not a professional.

Improved symptoms
Good quality product! I tried it for seven days, and it significantly reduced my stomach bloating, improved bowel movements, and changed my discharge colour to a clearer one! AZO is fantastic regarding high quality and standards, and I'm grateful it's made in Italy. Thank you to all the scientists who made this product possible!

Cefixime and probiotics enhance bloating relief
We investigated how cefixime and probiotics impact bloating in patients suffering from functional abdominal bloating (FAB). In a study involving 122 diagnosed patients, we compared three treatment groups: one receiving conventional treatment, a second with cefixime, and a third with probiotics.

Those treated with probiotics and cefixime saw notable improvements in their bloating sensations and abdominal distension compared to conventional methods. Interestingly, while symptoms like abdominal pain and bowel changes improved across all groups, the addition of probiotics and cefixime showed enhanced benefits.

Overall, these findings suggest that incorporating probiotics and cefixime may offer significant support for individuals struggling with bloating.

Probiotics improve allergy symptoms
We evaluated the effects of a combined probiotic treatment on food allergies in children aged 4 to 5. In our study, 92 children participated, where one group took probiotics containing Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG for 21 days, while the other group did not.

The children on probiotics experienced significant improvements in skin and gastrointestinal symptoms, including a decrease in bloating. Their IgE levels also dropped notably, suggesting an overall healthier immune response. The control group showed no significant changes.

Overall, lactobacillus rhamnosus proved beneficial for reducing allergy symptoms and improving gut health.

Probiotics reduce pediatric AAD risk
We analyzed data from 23 studies involving nearly 4,000 children to assess how probiotics help prevent antibiotic-associated diarrhea (AAD).

The results showed that those taking probiotics had an 8% incidence of AAD, compared to 19% in the control group, indicating a significant protective effect.

None of the trials documented serious adverse events from the probiotics, but some participants reported mild side effects like gas or bloating. Overall, probiotics such as Lactobacillus rhamnosus seem helpful in reducing AAD in children after antibiotic use.

Normalised bloating issues
Always in the first aid kit! I start taking these probiotics when antibiotics are prescribed, and they work excellently. I even used them once during mild thrush. Many probiotics seemed ineffective, but these do—normalising stool, reducing bloating, and perfectly regulating female microflora. I will definitely repeat the purchase.

Not for everyone
Bloating, cramping, and spotting - side effects (a bit too much information). I've read over three hundred reviews, and mine seems unique. These do work, but consistency is essential. After a few days of taking them, I experienced significant discharge, spotting, intense bloating, cramping, and gas, beginning as early as day two. I stopped taking them after a few weeks due to the side effects, but within days, my recurring issues returned!
