I stared taking Chewable Probiotic Acidophilus (I use the "Nauture's Bounty Brand"😉 to see if it would help with bloating.
It does - to a degree - but in an unexpected fashion.
It acts in a manner similar to ruffage in that it keeps you quite "regular."
Part of the swelling in my particular case is due to the lungs/intestine interaction.
With the intestines cleaning themselves regularly by way of the Acidophilus, my bloat diminishes (it does not disaapear altogether) and I breathe a little easier as a result.
Cheers,
Kevin
