For over five years I had chronic loose bowels and diarrhea. Colonoscopy said all was fine. GI doc recommended Align and Metamucil which were no help. Two days on Pearls Elite and my body is working fine; I can't believe it! I've been taking these for about four months now. I went off two different times for a week and diarrhea returned. I'm sticking with the Pearls. And what totally shocked me was that my menopausal Hot flashes which were happening numerous times per day are mostly gone when I take Pearls. Don't know why these get rid of Hot flashes but I'm a happy camper
