I have stomach sensitivity with a lot of this type of supplements. Can anyone tell me their experience with this?

I take the solgar 7 with non-spicy food. I also do not take my vitamins or other medication at the same time. It has never given me a problem. I think it's a great product & has helped me.

I am an avid road cyclist and I did not notice my joints getting better at all. Went back to glucosimine. It did not bother my stomach, which supplements like calcium do.

I have nothing but good things to say about this product. It is all natural compared to a lot of supplement out there. It works fantastic for me. I would give it a try if I was you! Good luck. Hope it works as good as it works for me!

I love this product. No problems with my stomach at all. However, I am accustomed to spices. Turmeric is mild.

Hi Scott, I am not qualified to recommend how anyone else uses this supplement. I know a cancer survivor who used it for a while. I use it daily and plan to do so until I don't feel I need it. I researched it made my own decision. I tapered up until I felt my system was getting enough. Diarrhea is how some people determine they have enough. I feel that it is very helpful to me. I do take it on an empty stomach. No issues with long-term use that I have read about. Best wishes, Lynne

Have you thought that maybe you are lactose intolerant? The ingredients in this (all lactobacillus basically) are lactose. I am lactose intolerant and took this for the first time today and it really bothered me too! I took it with food and it was horrible, but I took it again on an empty stomach and it was better, maybe you can try that.

According to the description on the box, Align has some special probiotics that no other company has. However I don't know if this really makes a difference or not. Probably you can ask the pharmacist, & he will give you his opinion. I've been using Align for a few years & it has helped me, but it takes a few months til your stomach improves. I think I did ask the cvs pharmacist & she recomended Alighn. However I ran out & am using another brand & am feeling fine.

Barb...I really don't remember. It has been a while since I took them. I don't think they did anything positive or negative for me so I never got any more of them. Sorry I was unable to answer your question. As with Dianne (see below) I also take Primal Defense (oh..that answers the question) probiotics. I have found that Enzymatica's Digest Gold works very well for me, has an excellent reputation and is a lot less expensive. I am in my 70s and this digestive stuff is important. I wish you well, Andie

As other reviewers have already posted, this is magnesium oxide, the hardest to digest for some. I've taken it and haven't had any stomach problems, but it can cause nausea for some. Having had Roux-N-Y, must be careful of the stomach. My doctor recommends a protein-bound source such as Magnesium Malate or Glycinate as being the best, but to take at least Magnesium Citrate for higher digestability.

Im still testing. I just ordered three more bottles and the folks at Flexasil are asking for my order number from Amazon for a free bottle.I certainly want it to work. LOL I will post to the site in about a month.I can say my digestion is way better than Trigosamine was treating me.

No they are solid pills, I will arm you that if stomach irritation is an issue for you the nature of cleansing products will cause you gastric and stomach discomfort, but to dispel parasites his is needed. When compared to toxic parasitic drugs a homeopathic cleanse like this product is preferable, unless the parasites are particularly insidious. Tissue and organ located parasites are not affected, only intestinal, bowel parasites are. This product may need to be used in multiple rounds, I would recommend using it once every 2 weeks over month period to ensure you got all of them.

Obviously I'm not a doctor, but this supplement didn't cause the same upset stomach issues that a lot of other supplements have caused for me (and this one is really high with elemental iron). I take it in the morning with a glass of juice that's high in vitamin C (if I have any), but the supplement has vitamin C in it already so that isn't really necessary for me to do. I generally eat breakfast around the same time I take it. I love this supplement- no upset stomach and it really helped my iron levels.

They are not small but they are softer and a little more giving (capsules). They are not like multi vitamins that are big fat hard and taste gross. I gag on those big multi mineral vitamins .These don't bother me. My daughter has fought ibs. Gluten and dairy intolerance and loss of gallbladder. These enzymes help her soooo much she doesn't run to bathroom immediately after eating anymore. If u hv problems TRY THEM. It will be worth the effort of getting them down! Looked for years for something to work! Good luck.

Hi Ashley, I'm not sure if someone from the store writes them, or if it actually works for some people. I do know that some medications do NOT work on me, like sleep aid meds, my husband, they knock out, but me, not even. It may well be like this product. This product just did not work for me. I have to say, that I eat extremely healthy, and I've lost 30 pounds, on my own. When I tried this product, it actually slowed that process down, which was alarming for me. So I dumped it. Will it work for you? I don't know. As I said, each body reacts differently to meds. I also can not take multi-vitamins as they hurt my stomach... If you can get a money back guarantee, try it...Good luck.

I've taken these for a month and they affect my "regularity" about the same as all other hair vitamins. . . they loosen you up a bit. Depending on your normal constitution, this could make you simply more regular, or if you were already pretty regular, feel like you've got a mild stomach flu. Again, I don't think this is specific to Viviscal, but any hair vitamin that I've taken with Biotin in it has two side effects. 1 - it can break your skin out. mainly because of the biotin. Viviscal doesn't seem to have this effect on the average person mainly because of the other ingredients it includes in the AminoMar complex that make the biotin more absorbable 2 - most hair supplements contain vitamin C & E and until your body gets use to it, expect to be loosened up a bit. This is normal, just don't OD on fiber in the rest of your diet. As always, consult your doctor, but if you are seriously cramping or the diarrhea has you loosing lots of fluids, then stop taking these and either look for a supplement that contains only Biotin or gradually increase your Vitamin C & E consumption to something toward the normal daily dosages before starting these supplements so that there will be less shock to the bacteria helping your colon do its thing.

I've been taking them regularly for several years. I pop them just before lunch (other supplements before breakfast), I've never had an issue with after taste.My wife took them for a bit at random times and did complain about the after taste; I think the key is to have other "stuff" in the mix ! Take them just before a meal.

I always took after I ate. From my experience I got major stomach pain and wanted to throw-up when took on empty stomach.Used it for many years and was very helpful. Now I recently switched to a Gaba blend.

Yes and no. It's a blend, if I remember correctly, of like 5 creatines. I do NOT recommend this. It personally upset my stomach every time. I recommend ON creatine Monohydrate.

It is a wonderful product and it helps with everything that I eat. It has made a huge difference in how my body now digests food and I don't get stomach cramps anymore. Make sure you take it with every meal. I usually take it when my meal is about 1/2 way finished.
