This was recommended by a Dr. along with Prilo-Sec to handle the reflux problems. It was very effective right away, however, after several months I wondered if it was still working as I had some return of the previous symptoms. I switched over to another type of pro-biotic and got very little relief. After several months I went back to Align and once again effective relief. I have been taking it for over a year now and once in while I still have a problem, but overall, I no longer need to be fearful of going out to dinner or shopping after a meal. I would say it is 80 % effective in doing what it should be doing. I'll stay with it. VS Most Liked Negative Review Good, not Great This is a very good probiotic formulation.

Best Uses Comments about Align Digestive Care Probiotic Supplement, Capsules, 28 ea: I've been on align now for a full 3 weeks. I've given it a decent chance. While I may be remotely more regular, every day for the past 3 weeks I've been miserable. The bloating, pain and gas are horrendous, and the website said it sould only last a week or so. If it worked better, I might hang on and try another month's worth, but unless that happens in the next few days, I'm done with this product. It's VERY expensive, to be making me so miserable. You'd think they might at least add an anti-gas ingredient since this side effect is felt by enough people to have a section of the website dedicated to it.  Pros

Comments about Align Digestive Care Probiotic Supplement, Capsules, 28 ea: It all started when I had a gastrointestinal virus for which I needed two weeks to recover from. The IBS came a couple of weeks later. I had bowel and stomach cramps and burning sensation every time I went to the bathroom. The stomach and bowel burning was the worst as it was so uncomfortable. It lasted for ten days then came back after three weeks. Went for stool exams, bowel barium xrays and blood work and all was very fine. Doctor told me it was IBS and it would cure with time and diet. IBS is somewhat like having an irritated, inflammed bowel that needs to heal by reducing acidity and sugar intakes. Here is the diet that helped me. When the burning sensations came with diarrhea, I boiled some white rice and drank the rice water with little rice. As for my meals, I filled up my stomach with slice of bread (only with well cooked Italian or french bread as others type like toast bread would make IBS worst) and a banana for breakfast, pasta(couscous, rice, thin rice noodles...) with olive oil and well cooked white meat for lunch, crackers for snacks (unsalted with no flavour wheat one), couscous with fillet of sole (light white fish). No spices and not fried only steamed. When stomach burns stop, start adding vegetables (steamed green beans, spinach, potatoes, sweat potatoes, zucchini or squash). Vegetables should not be eaten on empty stomach but at end of meals. Yogourt once a day as the only dairy intake. No acidity or sugar intake. Therefore fruits can be banana, kaki and lots of water but not on empty stomach. Never eat or drink cold stuff as it spasms the bowel. You must chew your food completely prior swallowing and don't eat any fatty or hard to digest food. Always remove peel and skin. No diary, no fats, no sweets, no sauces, no chocolate... No aspartame and no sorbitol (found in cough syrup and gums). Align give little bloating and stiff points in stomach on week 1. No worry. IBS symptoms get better on week 2 but much better by end of week 3 and 4. The trick is to take Align daily while being cautious on your diet. Once you start feeling better you should not start eating normally again because your IBS symptoms might come back only a couple or a few days later. You should integrate slowly ur normal diet by starting to integrate more good foods not acid nor sweet. Align truly works with this diet. I have tried the diet with BIO-K probiotic only and wasn't effective because the probiotic in it is mostly effective after antibiotic intake. I can now confirm that Align is truly the good probiotic for IBS. I hope my experience will help others and that they have the same results I did. Mark.

Comments about Align Digestive Care Probiotic Supplement, Capsules, 28 ea: I take it every day. If I skip a day I'm in trouble. It is easy to take. I've just learned to take pills in last 3 months and I can swallow it okay. I never seem to get a big amount of "poop". It seems to absorb it. It doesn't work on milk products when I eat them. so just don't eat much cheese etc. It works well for me. Life if so much better since I've been using it. Was reccommended by my physician. Love the auto-delivery plan!
