We want to help! Contact us and we'll help you figure out if Happy Gut is for you.
IS HAPPY GUT VEGAN, GLUTEN-FREE, AND ALL-NATURAL?
Yes? This powerful little probiotic pill is vegan, non-GMO, allergen-free, dairy-free, gluten-free, free of synthetic ingredients, and free of artificial fillers.
DO I NEED TO REFRIGERATE HAPPY GUT?
No! Store at room temperature. Many probiotics require refrigeration but Happy Gut is shelf stable.
HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE A PROBIOTIC TO WORK?
For Happy Gut, it takes our customers anywhere from 2 weeks to 2 months to feel the effect.
WHAT IF I DON'T FEEL ANY CHANGE?
That doesn't mean it's not working! Your gut health impacts your immune system and many bodily functions, so trust your gut (literally) that you're supporting your health and well being.
WHY SHOULD I TAKE PREBIOTICS?
Prebiotics are the nourishment for the good bacteria delivered by the probiotic course -- they keep the beneficial bacteria well-fed and functioning.
WHY SHOULD I TAKE POSTBIOTICS?
Postbiotics line the intestines and colon to help maintain the right environment for the good bacteria to flourish.
WHAT ARE THE IMPORTANT INGREDIENTS IN A PROBIOTIC PILL?
The bacterial strains are the effective ingredients in a probiotic. Happy Gut's bacterial blend contains the Lactobacillus, Bifidobacterium and Streptococcus bacterial strains. These have been proven beneficial and provide a broad spectrum approach to gut health and microbiome diversity. They also survive well in the presence of stomach acids.
HOW POWERFUL IS YOUR PROBIOTIC PILL?
Happy Gut contains 15 billion CFU (Colony Forming Units) at the time of manufacture and at least 10 billion CFU upon delivery. Everyone is different, but on average about 5 billion CFU or more has been shown to be effective in treating many gastrointestinal conditions.
WHEN SHOULD I TAKE MY PROBIOTIC PILL? SHOULD I TAKE PROBIOTICS AT NIGHT OR IN THE MORNING?
We suggest taking one Happy Gut first thing each morning with a glass of water. But if you forget, it's okay to take it at another time of the day.
SHOULD I TAKE PROBIOTICS ON AN EMPTY OR FULL STOMACH?
We suggest taking Happy Gut on an empty stomach, but if you forget or if you prefer to take it with food, that's fine. Everyone is different.
WHO SHOULD TAKE A PROBIOTIC PILL?
We recommend Happy Gut for any adult (though of course you should always consult your physician to make sure any supplement is right for you). Gut health affects immune system functioning, skin health, healthy digestion, and much more, and for most people adding a probiotic to your daily regimen can make a real difference in total body health.
HOW CAN I CHOOSE THE BEST PROBIOTIC PILL FOR ME?
There are so many choices, and selecting the best probiotic for you may feel overwhelming. We recommend selecting a probiotic that is coupled with a prebiotic to ensure that the probiotic does not get broken down by stomach acids and and a postbiotic to create the right long-term environment for the good bacteria. Seed Health is a popular choice, but it does not contain a postbiotic. Also, check the Colony Forming Units (CFU)! Most people need at least 5 billion upon delivery for an effect. Look for a probiotic that guarantees at least 5 billion upon delivery, not just at time of manufacture. Your Happy Gut probiotic pill is about 10 billion CFU at time of delivery. But more isn't necessarily more: at levels of 25 billion plus, an average person may find the probiotic to be overwhelming. Finally, our supplements do not contain soy, dairy, or other animal products or any artificial ingredients, but many others do! Check the label carefully for the additives.
IS HAPPY GUT A GOOD PROBIOTIC FOR MEN? IS IT A GOOD PROBIOTIC FOR WOMEN?
Absolutely! Happy Gut is a one of the best probiotic pills for digestive health support in men and women alike.
PREBIOTIC VS PROBIOTIC: WHICH IS RIGHT FOR ME?
You should not have to choose! Find a daily pill that includes a prebiotic and probiotic in one. They work in tandem; the prebiotic nourishes the probiotic bacteria and keeps them strong.
