Beware contains fructooligosaccharides (FOS)
Fructooligosaccharides (FOS) is a sweetener. I used to buy these probiotics from this company and always got more stomach problems when I started to take it regularly. I used to take it sometimes and was ok but when I started taking it regularly I started to get severe stomach problems: gas, cramps, feeling sick etc. So I tested it out. The times I didnโt take it I was great then I took it for 7days and I was in so much pain that I had to go hospital because of fructooligosaccharides (FOS). Read the ingredients properly before you buy anything. Hope my review helped you all. Fructooligosaccharides (FOS) are a form of carbohydrate. The term saccharide is another word for sugar, and an oligosaccharide is a molecule made up of a small group of these sugars. Overusing fructooligosaccharides (FOS) can cause side effects, including digestive upset and abdominal stress.
The potential side effects of using FOS include:
* cramps
* nausea
* bloating
* gas
* diarrhea
People with digestive disorders such as irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) may want to avoid using FOS, as their digestive system may not respond well to the effects. There is little current research, however, on this topic.
I know all this because I researched into this and tested it out and this was the cause of my stomach getting worse. I will never buy from this company again. When I took it sometimes it did help my Acid Reflux as I suffer from Acid Reflux really badly but when I took it regularly thatโs when everything went bad.
