"It does exactly what it says. I researched what, when, where, how, why, and if I should I take Probiotics. I found that the minimum requirements for effectiveness is 50 billion and a minimum of 11 strains. A lot of products claim to meet those two guidelines. But when you look at the ingredients they have a list of stuff that has nothing to do do with Probiotics bottom line. A lot of scams out there with products claiming to be the real thing but they are full of herbs, vegetables, and other ingredients that are known only to them. If you want all those ingredients buy over the counter vitamins, which might be a lot cheaper. But you and me are looking at Probiotics for a reason. Remember to stay focused on that particular reason.

I carefully compiled a list of over 125 products. Some had a few details on the ingredients and some had none. Yet, they all claimed to be Probiotics, which I quickly found out that it was not true. Anyway, if a particular product did not clearly list the required ingredients, I crossed it out from the list. Every product claims to be the best on the market. Don't fall for it. One product at the time was scratched from the list, until I found the right one for me and my medical issues.

I decided to buy Garden if Life Probiotic. I made this choice after pouring many hours on research, which needed to meet specific criteria: 50 billion and 16 strains. Anything less than 50 billion isn't that effective for reaching my medical goals (see them listed somewhere else in this post).
And of course, every ingredient that is contained in this product is clearly listed on the Amazon website. My doctor said that there was a lot of research on Probiotic products on neuroscience journals and how Probiotics could help me with my particular medical conditions, which the medical field had nothing else to to offer me. As a professional researcher, I had to get my hands, right away, on high quality journals on line. I read more than 15 articles from different journals. It took me a long time (over 2 weeks) because my cognitive difficulties (remembering, understanding, etc.). The research was well designed, the findings were consistent and they were well supported. If you feel the urgency to read research just go to Google and search for "Probiotics research on neuroscience journals." From there you get to pick and choose from a huge selection of journals. It's like a huge salad bar, with enough variety to satisfy anyone with an enormous hunger for information. It just doesn't get any better than that.

Note: Insurance companies do not cover this product. It really is a disappointment but not enough to discourage me give up on my search for a light at the end of the tunnel.

Next is affordability. Since my goal is to consistently take it every day for many years to come, I needed to to make sure it was affordable. This product is a winner!!! Since I'm on a fixed income, I need to make sure that I wouldn't go broke in the process of trying to reconnect with my cognitive abilities and, maybe even restore some of my memories. If nothing else, based on the research, I truly believe that I'll be able to improve my cognitive skills and keep new memories. And that, ladies and gentlemen, IS THE BOTTOM LINE. The simple FACT is that I have been taking this product for just a few days and I can SEE SOME ENCOURAGING RESULTS. I wrote this post (a) without any hand written notes on the side to rely on, (b) without taking me for ever, and (c) without sweeting bullets connected with the frustration of not having a clue whether I was making any sense. Let me give you an example of how I feel right now. This is, indeed, like you are watching the Super Bowl game and your team is getting its asses kicked, badly (my doctors lack of resources to help me). You almost lose hope (will I loose my mind completely? how soon? What will happen to me when I can no longer think nor remember simple words or conversations with my loved ones?), but you don't give up. You heart is full of faith thinking that something can be done to win the game. As hard as it is, and with very little hope someone makes the perfect play (my doctor studying Probiotics for years and recently recommending to patients who had similar problems like mine. According to my doctor he was getting encouraging results) and you come back from the brinck of despair. The last day of the season, on the last second you find yourself being a part of of the winning team. You feel like you were present in the stadium with your team players when you won the Super Bowl (my the help of Probiotics). And you feel like life is returning to you and your steps are lighter, quicker, easier, and you have all the confidence of the world. Life seems to be returning to your mind and the future looks full of new possibilities and new adventures. I CAN THINK, ENGAGE IN SIMPLE CONVERSATIONS WITHOUT GETTING LOST, AND THAT'S ONLY THE BEGINNING. I have faith that I am going to to have a great future. A future without fear. Please you all wish me good luck, and if you don't mind praying for a stranger pray that my new found hope on Probiotics really works.
Thank you for reading this long, mushy, and even corney post, but I am too excited. I just couldn't wait to share with the world. I hope others too can find new hope with this product. Nothing is guaranteed in this life. Not even Probiotics. It is just my own experience and nothing else.
P. S. I'm not being paid for my comments nor was asked to write this post."

"There’s going to be some intimate details in this review, but I have to be honest for the ladies! I’m a newly wed, our whole relationship our pH’s haven’t balanced … this has been an on and off problem for five years. Unfortunately, it meant I had a lot of issues with odor, BV, and UTIs. It didn’t matter what I did. I went to doctor visits, tried antibiotics and eventually the problem would happen again. Gynecologists would tell me “it’s normal to have some odor” and shrug it off. The multiple UTIs I had were an annoyance and again I’d be put on antibiotics. I ended up starting a hygiene ritual shower before sex, after, pee before and after, I used oils… vaginal soap bars, washes - other probiotics - I even went as far as douching!!!! (Which we know is never the right answer!!! Since it can throw off your pH balance even more…) I was so desperate to find something that lasts. So my best friend shared this Amazon listing. I was hesitant to try another probiotic. Well I have been taking this for one week and the odor is gone. Last night my husband even said “those probiotics are working.” I can finally have sex in confidence. Our sex life was already good, now it’s even better and as a newly wed - it’s a game changer. I will forever be a customer for life!!!! We can’t get enough of each other now. I’m so glad I tried this. This took my intimacy to a whole other level. I feel sexy, I can be spontaneous and not be self-conscious!!!"

"So I'm just going to go in on this matter, sorry! Let's face it we all poop, yes men even woman poop! Nope it does not smell like roses either lol. Now, I'm a woman in her late 30's and as hard as it is to admit, yes I am climbing up that ladder. Along with my age it also comes with a slower metabolism. This product like any other product one is always skeptical about whether it will work? Well after reading review behind review I decided that I was going to spend my husbands money and buy this! I'm so glad I did. I have been taking it in the morning before a meal and drink plenty water through out the day and let me tell you OH IT WORKS!!

The pill looks big, however it is easy to swallow and does not have a bad taste to it. I would highly recommend these probiotics!"
