 Not very potent, but worked for me (and much more effective than Beano). October 9, 2008
Peter Thatcher (Phoenix, AZ USA)
These caplets contain only 0.5 billion bacteria, which isn't very much compared to something like Complete Probiotics, which has 60 billion bacteria per caplet. That's 120 times less effective. But, they're also 12 times cheaper, so the question is: how much is enough?
Well, even this weak caplet has had an astonishing impact on my gas. If I take one in the morning, I have almost no problems all day. If I don't, it can be pretty bad. I tried Beano, which had almost no effect for me. This is much more effective.
The only problem is that the effect only lasts for one day. Every day I miss, it's like I never took any. I'm thinking about buying a more potent kind to see if it lasts for longer.
So, if you have problems with gas or digestion and Beano hasn't helped, try these. They're pretty cheap, so there isn't much to lose. If they don't work, try a more potent variety of probiotics.
GREAT PRODUCT October 9, 2008

I first used this product from Sam's club. When they quit handling it I went to Amazon.com and found it. It is a very good product.

I'm taking a lengthy antibiotic regimen and need the probiotics to counter the effects of the antibiotics. This product has served me well.

I recently purchased Accu-flora (pro-biotic acidophilus). I must take antibiotics daily for the rest of my life. It caused me many problems (the usual side effects). Since I started taking this product along with my antibiotic, and by itself two hours after my last combined dose, my problems have disappeared. My local Sam's store quit carrying it, so I ordered it online through Amazon. It met the criteria for the "no shipping charge" option, making it the most economical way to purchase it. I am definitely a satisfied customer.

Ahh, this stuff is great. I have been an avid fan of all forms of Acidophilus, whether in it's natural state found in yoghurt to all kind of pills and caplets for years. I know eating vitamins and nutrients in the natural state is the best, but hey, when in a rush I take all the help I can get and I have definitely noticed results with the supplement so why stop now.
Acidophilus is a generic name for a whole group of probiotics, added to milk products that aid in digestion and help fight all kinds of immunity problems. The healthy bacteria such as the L.acidophilus inhabit the mouth, intestines and the female regions and protect them from hostile germs and organisms. This strand produces lactic acid that creates an unsavory environment for unhealthy organisms. I started taking these years ago when I had some infection, the female kind, really not fun, and along with garlic pills it really helped my body fight. This is especially good for those who are on birth control, something that can also have certain negative effects on the female body, making it prone to infections. The friendly germs help replenish the natural flora and help reduce overgrow of yeast. This is also excellent to take during winter and change of season times when colds and feeling icky are easy to succumb to. Also an excellent boost for the immune and digestive system this is a great tool to help the body stay in good shape without having to use antibiotics to cure small woes. This product can help the body in production of folic acid and niacin, a neat home made factory that doesn't require me taking any more vitamins!
My aunt swears that Acidophilus combined with the garlic pills makes her hair grown like crazy, hard to tell for me since my hair is so long but hers was short and she loved the effect and who knows maybe it does help. I really like the Accuflora brand because after I take the caplet I don't feel any side effects of swallowing pills and I always make sure to carry some with me if I forget to take them in the morning.
