With a long history of fighting ulcerative colitis since my teenage years, that I believe was caused in part due to the many shots of antibiotics to fight asthma, bronchitis, etc. in my childhood. I have had it under control for approximately 25 years (I am 73 years old), however, my bowel movements were never quite normal. This probiotic was the first to bring a normal shape and color to my bowel movements. I did add slippery elm as a helper to make elimination easier for a while because of the new normal width of my formerly thin movements. It took about 2 to 3 weeks to really help. I have just ordered my 2nd month and am thrilled with the results.
Pros and Cons:
Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
