I agree, you should always check with your health care professional before taking probiotics. While they are “safe” they can affect the body in ways you may not be ready for. And, certain conditions require careful monitoring even with natural substances like probiotics.

Caroline, glad you found the post useful. It’s always nice to come across studies that have real-life, immediate implications. Of course, it wouldn’t hurt for your sis-in-law to talk to her doctor about taking them first though.

I will for sure have to share this info with my sister-in-law who had gastric-bypass surgery last year. Our family loves Vidazorb probiotics as they have been the one and only thing to safely and effectively help our little boy with his severe Eczema. It has been such a blessing, and since we have seen first-hand how awesome they are…our whole family loves them and takes them! I will have to talk to my sis-in-law and get her started on Vidazorb too Thanks, Caroline
