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.

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.

I've struggled with painful bloating and constipation for months, and after trying Unbloat for a month without results, I turned to Culturelle. In less than a week, it transformed my situation entirely. I’m genuinely impressed and happy with the results. I highly recommend giving this a try!

I really love this product! I’ve been dealing with severe stomach discomfort and bloating recently, and I noticed an immediate difference within a few days of using it. Eating no longer causes pain, and I feel normal again. This is a great product; I just wish I had discovered it sooner.

Cost-effective and proven! I’ve tried many probiotics to improve my GI system. This is the only one that gives me relief! After a few days, my bloating and discomfort go away. Combined with proper eating, I feel much healthier. My son has also switched to this probiotic as our paediatrician recommended it for its proven results. I couldn’t agree more!

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.

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.

We explored the effects of multispecies probiotics, including Lactobacillus rhamnosus, on irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) symptoms like bloating. In a well-structured trial with 49 participants, those taking probiotics saw a significant reduction in IBS symptoms after 4 weeks compared to those on a placebo. Notably, 68% of the probiotics group reported substantial relief, showing promising results in reducing bloating and abdominal discomfort.
These findings suggest that taking multispecies probiotics could be beneficial for those struggling with IBS-related bloating and other symptoms.

Lactobacillus aids iron therapy tolerance
We examined how Lactobacillus plantarum 299v impacts patients with iron deficiency anemia who were starting oral iron replacement therapy. In our research with 295 participants, those who took the probiotic alongside their iron therapy reported significantly less bloating and other gastrointestinal issues.
This led to better treatment adherence, with fewer individuals stopping their iron therapy early. Additionally, the probiotic users showed improved iron levels and hemoglobin readings after three months. Overall, Lactobacillus proved effective in easing bloating and supporting gastrointestinal comfort during iron treatment.

Delight! I purchased this for a 3-year-old with type 1 diabetes and gastrointestinal issues. Giving half a capsule at night has led to immediate results: rashes on the cheeks disappeared, stools improved, and bloating reduced. The child sleeps better and wakes in a good mood. I enjoy the taste mixed with water. After a long search for effective probiotics, I found this on the recommendation of my paediatric neurologist-nutritionist, Olga Hoffman. It's not cheap, but it truly works.

Although it might be slightly pricey, the results are exceptional. According to a YouTube pharmacist, the effectiveness of lactic acid bacteria varies among individuals. After taking this product, my bloating and gas issues greatly decreased, making social situations more comfortable. I had not realised these problems were linked to lactic acid bacteria. My digestion has also improved significantly, and I plan to continue using it, though I will consult my doctor if needed.

We explored the effectiveness of various probiotic strains and mixtures for treating bloating in individuals with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). Our analysis comprised data from 81 randomized controlled trials, involving 9,253 participants.
While multiple probiotics proved beneficial for specific IBS symptoms, only three strains and two mixtures demonstrated effectiveness in alleviating abdominal bloating.
Notably, while some probiotics showed promise, results varied, indicating that not all strains are equally effective for every symptom. Further investigations are required to strengthen these findings.

We focused on how Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus IDCC 3201 affects bloating in people with irritable bowel syndrome with constipation (IBS-C).
In a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial involving 30 participants, those taking the probiotic experienced significant improvements.
After 8 weeks, symptoms like abdominal bloating and bowel satisfaction notably improved in the probiotic group compared to those on placebo.
This suggests that RH 3201 may enhance gut health by boosting beneficial bacteria and associated metabolites.

We conducted a randomized study focusing on patients suffering from irritable bowel syndrome with constipation (IBS-C). Our aim was to see how adding a specific food supplement that includes inulin, choline, and silymarin could help alleviate bloating and other IBS symptoms compared to a standard constipation diet alone.
After eight weeks of treatment, we observed a notable improvement in bloating severity. Specifically, the addition of the supplement led to a 34.8% reduction in bloating symptoms among participants who used it in conjunction with their diet. This indicates that inulin, as part of this combination, may have a positive effect on alleviating bloating.
However, while stool frequency and consistency did show some improvement, these results were not statistically significant when comparing the two groups. Therefore, while there are clear benefits to including inulin with other ingredients for bloating relief, we must recognize that inulin’s isolated effects are part of a larger picture.
