This is called 'remodeling' and is a common experience for those who have a microbiome that needs support.

The stomach pain is likely caused by the beneficial probiotics competing with the bad microbiome in your gut.

As the bad bugs die, they release a lot of gas. The gas is likely causing distention and pain.

I recommend adding Gallbladder Nutrients - 1 to 2 capsules before dinner. This supports healthy bile production and bile flow. This is needed also to support a healthy microbiome. It also helps healthy bowel movements.

Then take the ProBiota HistaminX after dinner.

After a week, the bloating should be significantly less.

You may also benefit from Saccharomyces Boulardii. I would add take 1 capsule of this beneficial yeast after dinner with the ProBiota HistaminX. This also competes with the non-friendly bacteria and yeasts but in a different way so it's more comprehensive.

In health,

Many vitamins go through a fermentation process as it is a healthy way to create nutrients.

I am not sure if ascorbyl palmitate of ours goes through this process or not.

That said, even if it does, the benefits of ProBiota HistaminX and any of our histamine support supplements far outweigh the potential of fermentation issues.

We are likely the best in the world when it comes to histamine support. Our formulations are extremely effective.

In the event they do not perform for you, simply ask for a refund.

In health,

There is no quercetin in ProBiota HistaminX. This supplement is a probiotic which contains healthy strains of bacteria.

There is quercetin in HistaminX. HistaminX supports healthy histamine storage within the cells.

Perhaps that is the confusion.

In health,

The lactate produced from the microbiome is not significant as what our own body makes.

I've discussed this exact theory with probiotic experts in the field.

Lactate is elevated in those with mitochondrial dysfunction.

Supporting healthy mitochondria is what's needed for those struggling with autism or other types of neurological dysfunctions.

L. plantarum is incredibly supportive of healthy histamine levels.

In health,

Thank you for your comments.

It's common to have what they call 'gut remodeling' when starting a new probiotic.

I'd continue using ProBiota HistaminX and only using it a few nights a week - taken after dinner.

B12 high on labs is common when one is supplementing. If you feel good taking vitamin B12, continue taking it.

I'd consider Gallbladder Nutrients - 2 capsules before dinner. Start there. If needing more support, consider 2 capsules before lunch and 2 before dinner. You want stools to be well formed, easy to pass and sink. Find the amount that works for you - it may be, and usually is, more in the beginning stages for the first week and then less as you improve.

Upon waking, I'd do two things:

Optimal Electrolyte Unflavored: sip 1 serving in a glass of filtered water

Glutathione Plus Lozenge: take 1/2 lozenge, let it dissolve and then swallow.

These should help significantly ;)

In health,

I would use Histamine Digest and Gallbladder Nutrients.

Take Histamine Digest with meals.

Take Gallbladder Nutrients, 2 capsules, before dinner. If you experience a healthy bowel movement that's easy to pass, sinks and is well formed, then stay with 2 capsules before dinner. If you notice you need more support, add either 2 capsules before lunch and 2 before dinner - or take 4 capsules before dinner.

The ProBiota HistaminX may be added about 1 month after trying the above.

You may need more gallbladder, liver and gut support before using the ProBiota HistaminX.

In health,

Probiotics naturally are found on the food we eat and drinks we drink.

This is why it's possible to open the probiotic capsule and dump the contents onto a bite of food. Then be sure you take it at the END of a meal vs the beginning - to increase the survival rate.

That said, some of the bacteria will die when one opens the capsule.

We use acid-resistant capsules to ensure survivability through the stomach for optimal delivery of the probiotics.

We also use a very special, and expensive, container to keep the probiotics stable.

This is why we don't have to ship any of our probiotics with ice. Our containers are top notch and have been through stability testing ensuring that our probiotics maintain label claim even if sitting in a very hot delivery truck or porch.

It is best to swallow the capsule but if not possible, then it's better to get some of the probiotic than none.

Again, if needing to open the capsule, do it near the end of your meal and place on a bite of food. It's best this way vs mixing in a drink as the probiotic will stick to the side of the glass.

In health,

Yes. ProBiota HistaminX is suitable for ages 4 and up ;)

Best to give after dinner.

In health,

The ProBiota HistaminX is stamped with an EXP date, product testing supports a 2-year shelf life, the EXP printed on the bottle will be for 2 years from time of manufacture.

In Health,

ProBiota Woman supports a healthy vaginal flora.

ProBiota HistaminX supports healthy histamine levels - primarily in the digestive system.

I recommend you consider ProBiota HistaminX.

Take 1 capsule after dinner.

I highly recommend also going 100% gluten-free and dairy-free for 14 days. See how you feel at the end of 14 days.

100% avoidance - not even a bite. Just one bite could trigger your immune system and reset all progress.

If you feel significantly better, then I would continue being gluten-free and dairy-free.

Dairy and wheat/gluten is not what they used to be 20 years ago. They are really causing issues in many people.

I am 100% gluten-free and cow dairy-free. I eat goat dairy products without any issue.

In health,

The formulation is the same between the former powder and the capsules.

The potency is the only difference.

When I was testing my original ProBiota HistaminX formulation of 20 billion per capsule during pilot tests, I found that 20 billion was causing constipation in people after 1 week of use.

That is why I reduced the potency from 20 billion to 10 billion in the capsules. Then I doubled the servings from 30 to 60.

I recommend taking at night after dinner. It gives the probiotic time to make a home in your colon vs being pushed out by other meals consumed throughout the day.

Bacteria naturally are ingested and make their way through our digestive tract.

By taking it at night, you're increasing their ability to take residence.

Plus, some people have what's called 'remodeling' of their gut bacteria. This stage can be uncomfortable with gas and bloating. By taking it at night, gas and bloating can occur while you're sleeping vs during the day.

In health,

Hives are associated with high histamine.

Histamine is often times absorbed through the digestive tract, getting into the blood and then affecting the skin and brain.

ProBiota HistaminX supports healthy histamine levels in the digestive system. It does this by providing bacteria which are known to break down histamine and not produce histamine. I recommend taking this in the evening before bed.

Histamine Digest also supports healthy digestive levels in the digestive system. It does this by providing the DAO enzyme which directly breaks down histamine. I recommend using Histamine Digest with meals.

For a more comprehensive full-body healthy histamine support, consider Histamine Nutrients. Take 2 capsules any time of day as needed. If one wants to support healthy onset of sleep, taking 2 before bed is a good time to do it.

L. planetarium actually does the opposite.

"To overcome the deleterious effects of hydrogen peroxide, Lactobacillus plantarum elicits an adaptive response to oxidative stress." PMID 31948630

"Antioxidant activity is one of the important probiotic characteristics for lactic acid bacteria including Lactobacillus plantarum, which is used for food fermentation or as a probiotic supplement." PMID 32865760
