Bifidobacterium lactis alleviates bloatingClinical trial: the effects of a fermented milk product containing Bifidobacterium lactis DN-173 010 on abdominal distension and gastrointestinal transit in irritable bowel syndrome with constipation.
Medium relevance for IBS treatment
We conducted a study to see if a fermented dairy product with Bifidobacterium lactis DN-173 010 could help reduce bloating in patients with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and constipation. In a controlled trial with 34 participants over four weeks, we found that this probiotic significantly decreased abdominal girth and improved gastrointestinal transit times.
Patients reported feeling less bloated, and symptom severity also decreased. These findings suggest that fostering faster transit times may be an effective method to combat abdominal distension.

SCM-III improves IBS symptomsSingle-blind follow-up study on the effectiveness of a symbiotic preparation in irritable bowel syndrome.
49% relevance, clinically significant
We conducted a study examining the effects of a novel symbiotic treatment, SCM-III, on patients with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). Sixty-eight adults were divided into two groups—one received SCM-III and the other a heat-inactivated version, both for 12 weeks.
Our findings showed that most patients reported significant improvements in bloating and abdominal pain compared to a control group. Over 80% felt the treatment was effective, while less than 5% labelled it ineffective.
Overall, this suggests that certain IBS patients could greatly benefit from symbiotic treatments like SCM-III, though it may require a cyclic use for best results.

We examined how Lactobacillus acidophilus can help treat bloating in patients with dyspepsia due to imbalances in gut bacteria. In a study involving 30 participants, symptoms such as pain, pressure, and bloating were self-reported while objective measures like bowel movements and weight changes were also tracked.
Those affected by antibiotic-induced dysbiosis experienced rapid relief within days. Improvements were noted in symptoms of maldigestion over a week, and remarkable results were observed in patients with radiation enterocolitis. Overall, this probiotic showed promise for alleviating digestive discomfort without notable side effects.

These changed my life. I frequently suffered from UTIs, needing monthly antibiotics. My new doctor encouraged trying a high-count women's probiotic, which she believed would help with UTIs, yeast infections, and bloating. I was sceptical, but these truly transformed my life! I now take them daily, and I haven’t had a UTI or yeast infection since January. Life-changers!

Healthy and happy digestive system! While many discuss its effect on vaginal health, this probiotic worked wonders for my bowels. Within days, my bowel movements became regular, averaging 2-3 healthy ones per day. My usual bloating has vanished since I started taking this. I no longer feel as gaseous or queasy as before. I initially ordered this in December and have just ordered two more bottles. This has been a wonderful change, and I wholeheartedly recommend this product.

Effective. While this product is on the pricier side, I find it greatly helps regulate my pH balance and maintains good gut bacteria, keeping bloating at bay. I've noticed a distinct difference in my body when I don’t take it.
Satisfaction Guaranteed! On 22 August, I ordered this in desperation due to a history of chronic BV and yeast infections from antibiotics. After researching, I found this product and SeroFlora vaginal suppositories. With great reviews, I ordered both for relief before my wedding anniversary. I took two capsules twice a day; after three days and using SeroFlora inserts, both yeast and BV issues cleared up. As a lactose intolerant, I relied on this probiotic; it alleviated severe pain, bloating, and discomfort. When I ran out, my health declined. I quickly purchased more to return to feeling well.
