Proper eating can really be a pain sometimes. I try my best to make wholesome, healthy meals for my family but it seems like there’s always some supplement or nutrient that we’re not getting enough of. If we don’t have fish twice a week, we’re not getting enough Omega-3. If we don’t eat a certain amount of whole grains, we’re missing out on fibre. I just can’t seem to balance our diet so that it includes everything we need!
Well thanks to Swiss Natural, I can at least make sure that the whole family is getting their proper dose of probiotics every single day! The company offers three great probiotic supplements so that getting the right amount of probiotics is easy! We received a box of each type of supplement to test out and I was very curious to see how they worked.
Swiss Natural Probiotic Age offers three different probiotics supplements for different ages: Child, Adult and Adult 50+. Each variety has a different level of c.f.u. (colony forming units) per capsule. Unlike some other probiotic supplements, no refrigeration is required for these convenient capsules. And both the child and the adult varieties are easy to open and add to food or drink. I really liked the idea of being able to add the supplement right to my boys’ juice to make sure they were getting the proper amount of beneficial bacteria for their intestinal health each day.
The main thing I had to remember about the probiotic supplements is that they needed to be taken on a full stomach, so we generally didn’t use them first thing in the morning when we took the rest of our vitamins. Instead I waited until supper and then my husband and I each took a capsule just before we ate. I added the boys’ capsules to their food or drink depending on what we were eating.
To be completely honest, I’m not really sure what type of health changes I’m supposed to notice with a healthy level of probiotics, but I do know that having a healthy digestive system is something that I want for my whole family. It did seem like I experienced less of a bloated feeling after I had taken the probiotics for a few weeks. I also learned that probiotics help to prevent intestinal illnesses by ensuring that there are adequate good bacteria to fight off infection.
I really like the capsule form of this supplement and there’s no doubt that it made getting a healthy level of probiotics much easier since I didn’t have to worry about having a refrigerator nearby or buying a certain brand of yoghurt. Instead I could just take a convenient capsule with my meal and know that my digestive system was as healthy as it could be. If you’re looking for an easy way to get your probiotics every day, why not give Swiss Natural Probiotic Age capsules a try? You’ll love how convenient they are!
I could not agree more! I never even heard about probiotics until I got really sick and spent entire month on antibiotics. My stomach was going nuts, hurting more and more each day. I was miserable until one day my friend suggested to try probiotics. I never looked back since! It is a great stuff.
I never thought about that, but it’s true probiotics would be especially important after being on antibiotics because the medication would kill off all that good bacteria as well as the bad. Thanks for a great insight! :)
