Seeking Health ProBiota Bifidobacterium, 60 Capsules, Probiotic Supplement for Digestive Health, Bifido Only, Vegan- and Vegetarian-Friendly, Supports Colon Health and Immune System*

This formula is similar to their ProBiota HistaminX blend, expect it's all bifidobacterium strains. (The other formula also includes two lactobacillus/lactiplantibacillus strains.) But both formulas use only strains that do not add or trigger more histamine, thank goodness! I take the ProBiotia HistaminX and give this one to the cats. (We had a cat on antibiotics who ended up at the emergency vet with life-threatening constipation. Never again.) They don't have histamine issues (as far as I know!), but it's gentle for them while still being effective and they don't even need me to camouflage it. I just sprinkle some on their food. Big plus. I highly recommend either one if you need a well-researched and reliably effective probiotic formula, but especially if you have any issues around histamine and need one you know won't make them any worse. Dealing with histamine issues is tricky enough. Iykyk. I use a combination of their formulas for mine and am very happy to say they're now managed as a result. Thank goodness.

Hi, at the moment is seems to doing the trick: controlling histamine. I am taking s boulardii, and aor probiotic 3. the lactic acid producing probiotic generates too much lactic acid which I do not tolerate. Although I react to any ingredient in it, I notice an almost sweet taste in my mouth after taking it. It seems like the Candida or whatever evil I have is being defeated. It's like I had an acidic body and this combination is leading me to a more alkaline status. Update 04/10/2015 this is the only prebiotic i tolerate. Currently I'm trying: aor probiotic 3,(this give me histamine issues and after two weeks i don't notice anything) Jarrow s boulardii( this seemed to help but it increased multi histamine too, giving me heart racing, but seems to compete with dysbiosis) Solgar 40 plus acidophilus (this seem to have a strain very helpful i think it's l rhamnosus gg but I'm not sure, it helps my digestion definitely BUT it also gives me histamine issues, waking up sooner than usual and heart racing. It helps me digest dairy) None of the probiotic mentioned even seeking health one have improved the constipation. Seeking health definitely helps with the acidosis in my body and helps somewhat with digestion, i notice better sleep, and more calmness. I seem to have a problem with d lactate probiotic and histamine, in that regard i feel probiota bifido helping. I am waiting for prescript assist and hopping it makes a difference. In the meantime my money is with probiota bifido Edit after a bottle: I must downgrade it to three stars after starting with Gutpro. It is the only item after a myriad and five years of suffering and guessing i have dysbiosis h pylori and big Candida overgrowth that it is returning my gut to what it used to be. I have a bottle of prescript assist in the counter but at the moment i will trust gutpro only. Give it a try. The probiota bifido is d lactate free, and this is big news, but it lacks potency to give a result. My reflux and food intolerance to gluten dairy and soy remained the same. With gutpro the reflux is giving up and i tolerate dairy the best in five years. I am astounded with this probiotic. UPDATE: This is the only probiotic i tolerate on the long term along with prescript assist So i upgrade the review

O do better on this particular type of probiotic than any I've done in the past.

Best price on this important probiotic! Don’t know what I’d do without it as I am challenged with hyperthyroidism and it keeps my symptoms at bay. Effective and affordable works for me.

So far, so good. My doctor switched my probiotic to this brand/type and it seems to be working just fine. I cannot comment on it's effectiveness since I was previously taking a probiotic and therefore I have not noticed any differences. However I can say that taking a probiotic overall does seems o help my digestive health. This one is rather pricey, but I will continue with it for now since it was recommended to me by my doc.

Two years ago I went on a specific paleo diet. This diet did not work for me. Everyone is different, but my system could not handle the high histamine fermented foods; coconut aminos, kraut, kefir etc., along with the high histamine leftover meat meals that I was relying on as a primary source of calories. I developed hives, I believe, as a result of this style of eating. Those of you in the same situation know how devastating hives can be. I can no longer drink alcohol without breaking out in hives, direct sun can bring them on, itchy or tight clothing, many things aggravate them. Before the diet, I would get red in the cheeks when drinking alcohol, but nothing more. I have also always had very sensitive skin as well as dermatographia. (maybe these are clues that a person has issues with histamine and should think twice before following this type of diet!) Anyhow, after a lot of hunting for a solution on the internet, I came across these bifido only probiotics. I also read positive reviews here.. thank you! I have tried some other supplements and lifestyle changes, as well. As for the ProBiota Bifido: I took these 2-5 times a week, sometimes emptying the capsule into a smoothie with a not-to-ripe banana for the extra prebiotic fiber. I still had hives while taking these but they got less and less severe. I was able to stay in the sun longer. I no longer had hives under my boots and socks every day. When I did break out in hives, they would go away quicker. I stopped counting on getting hives every day while taking these. I would only get a severe reaction at concert or similar situation where you are moving around and its hot and exciting. I would say these probiotics and maybe some other things made me 60 percent better. The interesting thing is that after I went through a bottle and was no longer taking them, my hives were at an all time low. I thought maybe they had run their course. Its been about a month since I've run out, and the hives seem to be creeping up a little more often again :(, like there is still a probiotic war going on in my system, the good guys (bifidobacteria) might win, they just need another army... lol. So I am reordering now. I will add that eating a balanced diet, NOT eliminating foods, has helped me, personally. I believe that when I cut certain foods and entire food groups from my diet, I set myself up for nutrient/vitamin/mineral deficiencies that perhaps pushed me toward not being able to process certain foods/substances anymore, so I avoided even more foods, deepening the problem, creating a vicious cycle. I slowly began eating a little of everything again, minus the fermented stuff. I also lost too much weight on the diet, I find that as I gain it back, symptoms seem to go down as well! I really hope this review helps someone out there in a similar situation. :)

Very disappointed. This product has really helped me and is one probiotic I can actually take due to MCAS, histamine issues and a very sensitive stomach. I was finally getting to a place where I could take it more regularly and was excited to get my gut started on the path towards healing, so I ordered more as I got low on the previous bottle. I noticed the bottled seemed a bit bigger but didn’t really think about it until I took one and ended up with major issues. My stomach and esophagus felt clogged and crampy, like I had eaten one of the foods that doesn’t agree with it. It lasted for days and I was miserable. Decided to look at the bottle, totally new formula, including ingredients that I am unable to tolerate and that really cheapen what used to be a clean product. Very disappointed, as I went back to the amazon link I purchased it from and the old bottle and old ingredient information are still listed with not so much as a note stating “New formula!” I called to attempt to get a bottle of the old formula but didn’t receive much help so they provided me with a refund. It is just shocking to me that a company can change a good formula like that and not notify people, especially when using such inferior ingredients. The people they are making these products for tend to be very sensitive individuals, otherwise they would pay half the price for a basic probiotic!

Makes yummy yogurt in instant pot at 40⁰C kept for 30-36h. No idea whether it's actual bifidobacteria, but it's alive :)
