3. With so many other probiotics out there, why should I buy YourGutPlus+?
Manufactured in the UK with full certification, YourGutPlus+ is the ideal 3-in-1 prebiotic with probiotic and vitamin D3 supplement for good gut health. It contains a special mix of 5 different, scientifically-selected butyrate enhancing lactobacillus probiotic bacteria, and is supported by an effective prebiotic. This encourages the growth of healthy bacteria and restoration of a healthy gut flora. It is vegetarian-friendly, and can be consumed at any time of the day
4. What are the advantages of the slow-release capsule?
The vegetable-based slow-release capsules are designed to dissolve later, and bypass the stomach to the gut, withstanding stomach acids, where the healthy bacteria can perform its functions. This allows the probiotics inside to be unaffected by other substances. Exposure to the stomach acids will result in the probiotics being destroyed and not establishing itself in the gastrointestinal tract, which will render consuming YourGutPlus+ ineffective.

Without the slow-release capsule, the probiotics on their own may not be able to withstand stomach acids, and may be destroyed before entering the gut.
10. Is long-term consumption of this probiotic safe?
The Lactobacillus mixture contained in YourGutPlus + has been specially selected with long-term safety and efficacy in mind. We cannot foresee any issues in taking it continually at these doses (2 capsules a day). However, it is normal for side effects such as increased gas and a slight bloating to occur within a few days of starting. However, this should subside. After consuming YourGutPlus + for several months, in the extremely unlikely event that you develop excessive gas or flatulence, we recommend that you stop taking it for 2 weeks before resuming consumption.
11. What else can I do to improve gut health?
Consuming probiotics is not the only thing one can do to increase the ratio of healthy and unhealthy bacteria in your gut. You can improve your gut health by quitting smoking, increasing exercise, and reducing your intake of processed sugars. Adding foods containing live probiotic bacteria to your diet can also help. These include kefir and sauerkraut. Foods that help feed these probiotic bacteria, such as fruits, vegetables, and high-fibre foods, are also effective.
