No more asthma symptoms on Day 4 no joke! Plus UPDATE
"Here is my wife's experience as she tells it:
I have had severe asthma not long after birth accompanied by childhood eczema, teen acne, and many intestinal issues which I was always sure were connected. I have seen many doctors and have tried so many natural and conventional treatments with very little relief. At times I have been bedridden for months. Then I caved in and started taking Advair which has kept me functional for the last 5 years. I have been off of processed foods and industrial sugars for 9 months with some improvement. I successfully weaned myself off of my corticosteroid inhaler exactly one month ago by incorporating Weston A Price dietary principles. Their website is where I listened to the best podcast I have ever heard. It was given by Kiran Krishnan, one of the makers of this probiotic regarding the intestinal mucosal layer permeability. That instantly resonated. But I proceeded cautiously due to past disappointments. I now knew healing the gut lining was vital for healing most diseases. This was the puzzle piece I have been missing all along. I spent many hours of many days researching and listening to other presentations of his as well as various published medical studies and Write ups from other medical professionals. So I thought I would try the gaps diet (touted to heal and seal the gut lining) and along with that take this probiotic since taking a good one is part of the protocal.
Started gaps this Wednesday. Very difficult when you have a physical job due to not having enough energy.
Thursday I had to take my rescue inhaler 5 times which is a lot for me, I chalked it up to die off reaction. That evening before dinner I received Just Thrive. So discouraged by then, I assumed it wouldn't have minimal benefit if any. I took it anyway.
Woke up Friday slightly better. Still a little tight in the chest. Skin looked more vibrant. BM was good but not a complete emptying. My dear mother in law stopped in a remarked that my eyes were sparkling. By nightfall I hadn't used my inhaler but gave in before bed due to increasing tightness and some wheezing. Decided to put gaps diet on hold but still follow wapf principles.
Saturday was similar to Friday. I pushed through the wheezing and tightness most of the day and then gave in before bed and took a puff. It is so demoralizing to have to do it.
Today is Sunday. I woke up this morning with noticibly more energy, no tightness, no wheezing. I felt unusually optimistic about my health and I feel calmer and happier in general. Nightfall came and still no asthma symptoms! I'm telling you, the results so far are beyond anything I've ever experienced. That's why I had to write this on only day 4. I will do a follow up review on day 30 detailing any progress or regression. I honestly don't anticipate any regression, but you never know.
For the record, I am a God fearing woman with a lot of faith. I totally believe in the power of prayer. We are wonderfully designed. And I have confidence that the bodies we are given can heal if given the right tools. Of course, I wasn't expecting a miraculous cure just asked for direction and wisdom to find something better than chemicals to help me breathe and to see that I don't fall for bad advice. I am sure this is part of the answer to those many prayers and diligent searches.
Lastly, thank you Kiran and associates for your insight and for making this amazing probiotic available to the masses so afdordably. I will recommend it wholeheartedly. I am a customer for life now! And my husband will soon be too!
I am happy to answer any question or provide links to the information I mentioned in this review.
Update: 1.5 months later....Remarkable improvement continues.
I meant to update this a few weeks ago, sorry for the delay. Thank you for your interest in my story. Happily I am still off Advair (my corticosteroid) and I can go 6 or 7 days without taking my rescue inhaler which means since I began taking these probiotics I have gone from what would be classified as moderate persistent asthma to intermittent asthma (the least intense classification). My main triggers are smoke (including wood smoke), potatoes, and animal dander. I am able to walk several miles briskly and climb many flights of stairs without getting out of breath or needing my inhaler. Since I clean houses for a living, I implemented wearing a medical grade mask when servicing the few homes with pets until either my lungs fully recover, if that is possible, or I replace those clients which I would be sad to do because they are some of my favorites. Let's see, I am still following wapf dietary guidelines, eating real high quality traditionally prepared foods while avoiding industrialized foods and oils. I'm getting stronger each day for sure. Since neither of us has caught any of the nasty bugs going around among our friends this season, and because of the incredible improvement in my health, my husband and I will definitely stay on Just thrive as long as we can. My mother in-law is also impressed with my progress and has expressed an interest in taking it so I am off to order hers right now."
This is one of the main tools that changed my life
"It is a great product I've been using it for a little over 2 years I was going through some pretty severe illness and this helped me get back to normal. I would recommend this product to anybody and everybody that has stomach issues this thing is like a miracle it takes a little while to kick in but you do notice a difference after a short period"
Positive change in my digestive system
"After a week of taking these supplements, I observed a positive change in my digestive system. The supplements have improved my bowel movements, making them more regular. I credit the supplement for the positive change in my digestive system. Unfortunately, Just Thrive turned out to be expensive, and I experienced a negative reaction to it, those who are on blood pressure medication or cholesterol tablets should be aware of possible interactions with the supplement."
