5-in-1 Bio-Heal® Probiotic for Kid, Men & Women (Powder) - Best Supplement for Brain Function, Gut Health & Constipation - Shelf Stable & Fortified with Vitamins, Minerals & Prebiotics

Update: it’s now been 4 years. My son will be 17 in March and is still taking 2 at night. He still has regular bowel movements (with occasional constipation or diarrhea because…I guess life happens). He has progress and grown in so many ways and one small part is due to these supplements, I believe. I have no plans on taking these off of him. (FYI - My son will live with us the rest of our lives. He is not able to be independent.).My first order was on Jan 19 and I just placed my third order for my 13 year old son who is autistic. I saw the advertisement many times on Facebook and after some research and reading reviews, I decided to order the capsule (from Amazon) instead of the powder. My son was diagnosed with ASD at the age of three and diagnosed with Childhood Apraxia of Speech at the age of five.I followed the directions and started with one capsule a day for a few weeks. At first I gave him the capsule in the morning but changed to giving it to him at night after he had some night bathroom messes throughout the night. It did take his body a few weeks to adjust to a normal bowel movement so don’t expect a normal BM if you or your child has GI difficulties.After a couple of weeks, I increased his capsule dose to two and then three as per the instructions. I brought his dose back down to two because it seemed like his BMs were harder for him to pass with three. Giving him two capsules is the perfect amount for him. It took about a month or so to see regular movements. Honestly, I don’t remember him ever having any kind of normal BMs in the past so I was excited to see something healthy after years of trying to figure out how to help him.I noticed his behavior has become better about two months later. In the past, he has been moody or emotional that can quickly turned a meltdown. He hasn’t had a meltdown (this is different than a temper tantrum) is a long time. Because of Covid-19, I homeschooled him and I noticed his attention span and recall improved greatly. He isn’t as rigid with his daily schedule and it’s so much easier to take him out in public.Overall, his behavior has improved and that change has cross over to multiple aspects of his development. Because of his Apraxia diagnoses, I have not seen his speech improve. I have read other reviews that speech was improved while taking this supplement in their child but my son’s situation is different.I’m considering taking this supplement for myself and introducing it my mother-in-law.I highly recommend this product.

I rarely write reviews but for this product I needed to add my voice to the many others. Life Changing.Longer review below but to summarize, buy this and try it out!This product helped us on all levels! From BM to behaviour, the gut-brain connection is real and this product is helping us tremendously!We have 5 year old with ASD that was going to the potty to pee but would get constipated and would hold in from going to the bathroom for many days even weeks at a time. BM was painful for him and toilet training him completely was proving to be unsuccesful. He would only go in a diaper and it was painful. He wanted to do the real potty but the discomfort and pain didnt allow him to let go.The search to solve this issue eventually led us to this product and hearing that it could also benfit behaviour and learning we ordered this.So the product comes in a small looking package but will last a while. We purchased in August and as of Oct 5th we still have plenty left. Doses are small. We will definitely be re-ordering once its done.It does have a taste that will be tasted in water. Our son (thankfully) doesnt drink soda or juice so this was a small challenge. He spit out any water or even flavored sparkling water that we tried to sneak this in to. Eventually we put it in oatmeal (after it cools to warm, if hot would kill probiotic i think) and he eats that every morning.The changes did not take even two weeks.He started sitting on the potty and had and continues to have more regular BM. Not as thick and not painful. Every other day or so which is huge for him. He is now done with diapers (pays for the product right there lol)I cant say whether it is the actual probiotic or simply that his body/gut is now more in sync and flowing properly but since we have seen the the more regular BM we have seen a real difference in him.Generally just more "on"!Much more in tune with his surroundings and what is going on in the world.Eye contact improvedVerbal communication greatly improvedInteracts with his siblings on an unprecedented level.All of his therapists (Speach, OT, PT etc) report a huge improvement on all levels. Interaction etc I would strongly recommend any parent of an ASD child to buy this and try for a few weeks, what do you have to lose, $50?I just wanted to share this experience with you all, we are parents just like many of you, trying to navigate this journey. Our pooled experiences help, we should all share.

Helps use as prescribed

We've been adding one scoop of this probiotic to our daily smoothies as recommended. The powder doesn't seem to have a taste. It mixes well and, so far, the results are good. We will continue to use this.

After reading tons of reviews on this, I was thinking it was pricey but needed to try it due to my son being on the spectrum & having problems with bowel movements & eating healthy foods/ vitamins. I started by trying to mix it in with his water. That didn’t work very well. He eats a specific applesauce (the strawberry Mott’s applesauce) every morning for breakfast. It mixes very well. After the first week he started having regular bowel movements & due to that, his behavior improved tremendously. It’s a must- have in our house. We have been using it religiously for two years now. It’s worth it :)

The company really should revisit the price of their product vs the amount of the product per bottle. It is very greedy to charge $60 for a very small container that is not even filled half way for a product that is meant to be use daily. Very disappointed already and have not even tried the product yet. Even if it does all the wonders it says it does, it does not justify the amount that came in that tiny bottle. It really shows that this company is all about the money…if not, please revisit your prices or with the manufacturer the amount per bottle, is just unfair to me.
