Customer Rating:      Summary: Seems to work for a new UC diagnosis. Excellent marketing/packaging regardless. Comment: I have to commend the people at Digestive Advantage on this one, even if it is some type of snake oil. Anyone with Crohn's or Colitis is sure to purchase this product based on the name & packaging alone- great marketing tactics.
I started taking Crohn's & Colitis Therapy probiotics shortly after being diagnosed with Ulcerative Colitis. I took one pill a day for the first 14 days like the directions said, but that didn't seem to have much effect. So then I took two/day as instructed and things seemed to get better. After about a week, I then went back to one/day, b/c I started taking Prednisone to help me get normal more quickly (plus I had a reaction to the mesalamine suppositories the doctor prescribed, which made me get REALLY BAD). I figured why waste two/day while Prednisone is doing most of the work.
The pills are very tiny, which is a plus for ease of consumption. They are also individually wrapped, which is a plus for taking them with you.
Price is a big negative though-almost $1/pill before shippping. This doesn't seem justified with the pills being so small; surely they can't have near the "power" in them that most other pills have. Once this 2nd box is done, I won't be taking/buying them anymore b/c of cost (unless of course, I immediately start having problems again). I am hoping that the Garden of Life/Primal Defense probiotics that I am also taking now, will suffice as a total replacement. They are highly rated, contain many more probiotic species (14 vs. 2), and are much cheaper than this Digestive Advantage stuff.
I must note that while taking this product I was also regularly taking Fish Oil, Flax/Fish/Borage Oil, L-Glutamine, and Multivitamin w/o iron supplements- which make it hard to pinpoint what was REALLY making me better. Part way through, I also started taking 30mg/day Prednisone and the SCD diet, which really made things better, quickly. After 1 week with ALL of this stuff daily, I was down to 1 movement/day, which was almost normal consistency. Then started ramping down Prednisone, and continued with other supplements & diet...

Customer Rating:      Summary: I've wasted my hard earned money on this thing Comment: As I am having digestive system and constipation problems, a friend told me about this product, and I bought it. Well, after the very first time and the second time taking the product, my stomach bloaded up to the point that I could not sleep with difficulty to breath, and my constipation was 4 times worse than usual.
I stopped taking it. That was really a big waste of my hard earned money. To buy something that was promised to help and make life better for you, but instead worsen your condition is just not right.
Customer Rating:      Summary: This Product Works! Comment: Bought this for my mother who has had ulcerative colitis for many years. When she told me that this product really helps, I was shocked. Of all of the prescriptions & OTC meds that she has tried over the years, this is the first & only one that has worked for her. I would recommend anyone with colitis to try this.
Customer Rating:      Summary: AWESOME Comment: This product works! Anyone who suffers from UC or Crohn's knows everything that goes with it. Have not had a flare up since taking this over a year ago. The first two weeks will give you a rumbling stomach but after that its smooth sailing.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Seems to help... Comment: I've suffered with diarrehea all my life. I tried these caplets and they seem to help. They are not a cure by any means but I definitely feel a calming in my digestive system and have fewer dramatic episodes of diarreha. If you're like me, give this a try.
