Stay Gut Healthy

I will be the first to admit that I had heard of probiotics and knew they were good for a person, but I really didn’t know all that much about them before I was given the opportunity to try Daily Body Restore® Probiotics. In case you are like me, let me tell you a little about probiotics in general and Daily Body Restore specifically.

What are Probiotics?

Probiotics are live bacteria and yeasts that are good for a person’s health – digestive health in particular. They are good bacteria that live in your stomach to help keep things healthy. While they are naturally found in the body people also look to different foods and supplements to add more to their system. The most common is lactobacillus which is the one found in yogurt and other fermented foods. Researches are still not completely sure how the probiotics do what they do but they believe that they can help balance the good and bad bacteria in your system and restore good bacteria after you have been on an antibiotic.

Always be sure to check with your doctor before you start any new regimen. Probiotics are regulated by the FDA as food, not medications. And of course if you have any kind of allergic reaction stop taking them immediately.

What Do Daily Body Restore Probiotics Do Differently?

Instead of providing just one probiotic Daily Body Restore has come up with a proprietory formula – learn more straight from the company:

There are thousands of probiotic strains and species. Each one has a different function.

Our products were originally developed by DBR™’s founder, Kim Shafer for her family. She and her family had some health issues that certain enzymes and probiotics seemed to improve. The problem was that Kim had to buy multiple types of probiotics and digestive enzymes which was expensive and required taking a lot of supplements daily. Most if not all of those products had ingredients that Kim didn’t want. Ultimately a decision was made to formulate everything that she wanted but without artificial colors, flavors, dairy or gluten.

The digestive system has several parts working as a whole. In Kim’s opinion, absorbing nutrients from the food that we eat is as important as supplementing our good bacteria.

Digestive Enzymes help to break down and absorb nutrients from foods. She wanted to combine the multiple enzymes, two types of strains of probiotics (Lactobacillus & Bifidobacterium) and multiple species of both probiotic strains. Kim wanted to supplement good bacteria in the small and large intestines.

Ultimately, in order to get what she wanted required using 19 ingredients (10 Enzymes and 9 Probiotics)

Can Daily Body Restore Aid with Cholesterol?

I can't really say if it does or doesn't, but what I can share is that since taking this product, I have had a decrease in stomach upsets. Noticeably before taking these, I was often having stomach upsets on the regular despite having done a process of elimination with foods. It grew and became frustrating as I basically went on a BRAT (banana, rice, applesauce and toast) diet for an entire week to figure it out. Though the diet helped, taking these did supplement and maintain a calm and normal gut.

As for cholesterol, mine has been normal. I recently had bloodwork done and it did not show any high or low results. Perhaps this stuff does help to maintain it after all?

Overall Thoughts?

Personally, I think taking these do help in maintaining a healthier gut.  However, it will only help you if you actually help yourself in living a healthier lifestyle by preparing foods that you know you can hold down. The only way to know is by process of elimination. Once you have that all figured out, then try taking one of these pills after each meal with cold water as directed.  Perhaps you'll notice a difference? Everyone is different, but I think it's worth a shot most especially if you suffer from constant stomach issues and need a supplement to help break down foods easily.
