Any probiotic brahs sh!t their brains out when they first started taking them?

Been taking a probiotic with 4 billion live cultures for 3 days now and have been sh!tting my brains out 3-4 times a day. Before I was only sh!tting about once a day. Now I have insane gas and my stomach has been bubbling, haven't changed my diet at all.

Nope, but if I boil (and then let them cool - which then increases the "resistant starches" which are PREbiotics) potatoes and eat those...lawd that will give you the shyts and make you gassy as phuck.

That's how your body reacts to any significant change in gut biota OP.

It's also the reason I've never been into probiotics myself. I have IBS struggles anyway, and probiotics just about kill me.

Yea I think my microbiome was unbalanced as fukk, because I felt like I had to sh!t all the time, but couldn't. Now I can't stop sh!tting.

I’ve tried the pills and literally noticed nothing. A friend of mine suggested I try these gummies, and I’ve been sh!tting my brains out immediately after taking them the first day.

Do those gummies happen to have maltitol or some other shyt inducing artificial sweetner?

Nope, no artificial sweeteners at all. Stated in the ingredients as well as the real ingredients stating they use a small of amount of real sugar. I just think my gut bacteria is/was way out of balance to be honest.

Apparently the cultures have an easier time surviving in the gummy, instead of most pills when being transported. If I had to assume, most cargo containers and rigs probably don't transport vitamins very strategically, possibly exposing them to some of the heat elements and such.
