Karen,

My daughter finally started taking the BioBeads and it is the first probiotic (we've tried 2 others) that haven't given her initial worsening symptoms. I know there can be die off, but even after 7-10 days her gas was so explosive and she complained of stomach ache..that we have always stopped in the past.

This time she's had her first three doses of this over one week (yep, starting out every other day due to past reactions)... and she has had no adverse effects at all, and according to her... she says she thinks it's even helping. She said her gas has been way less and that seems to be her biggest problem these days, and she just had a "2" on our ranking scale. She has been eating a lot of bread this week, breakfast french toast and sandwiches with lunch, and she also seems to do better with more of that in her diet.

I'm just thrilled she's had no adverse affects of apparent die off this time around, and we are going to once a day this week. May I ask, best with or without food? I've scoured the box, and it doesn't say (which leads me to think it may not make a difference...but is there a preference)..

Hey Cara -

Ted takes one every day with his first meal - I put his vitamins in a little bowl, and sometimes he takes them right before he eats, sometimes during, sometimes after (we're on a very strict and rigid schedule ;) ). How great your daughter has had no adverse reaction to this probiotic!! :D
