Since starting these tablets my health has really improved. I was always feeling tired and tried a range of vitamins that never changed anything. I asked in my local health shop and explained how I was feeling. And was offered optibac it took 3 week's to get into my system, I'm starting into my 4 month and my whole body function is better than it ever was. Getting a full night's sleep and feel so much energy that I can get on with life. As a diabetic I suffered to keep my suger levels under control. But with always being tired I couldn't get out much. That drive my suger up and having bowl syndrome made me feel worse. These tablets has taken over and my lifestyle has improved. These really work and it's best to take one first thing in the morning. And you will start noticing a difference on week 3.

I genuinely feel my stomach is more settled and less bloated after about 2 weeks. I’m guessing if my gut feels fine something is right which will lead to better health.

A huge thank you to OptiBac Advisor and Nutritionist Claire Foss for all her support and guidance around my digestive health and OptiBac products. Very happy to say that the gentleness of OptiBac Immunity is working well after a few weeks after many other brands did not agree my digestive system. The secret is trying different products, give them a few weeks each. I know you're eager to reduce your symptoms, but issues like this can take some time to resolve... keep going, and thanks again to Claire for her help.
