Product Review: Flora Source By Nutri-Health

/in , , /by

My friends over at Nutri-Health.com asked me to try a product of my choice from their website then write up a review. I decided to check out this probiotic, Flora Source Multi-Probiotic Women. I am always in search of finding a new probiotic to give my body a variety of healthy gut bugs. It’s optimal to rotate your probiotics.

If you are looking to improve your gut health, which can boost overall health, then adding a good probiotic to your supplement protocol is a great idea.

How do you know if you need to add in a probiotic supplement? If you are experiencing the following:

  • bloating
  • excess gas
  • have trouble digesting certain foods
  • heartburn or GERD
  • recently taken antibiotics of have taken rounds of antibiotics in the past
  • low energy
  • emotions including anxiety or depression

This probiotic formula is unique in that it contains prebiotics as well in the form of short chain fructooligosaccarides (a proprietary blend from NutraFlora scFOS). Ingesting prebiotics along with your probiotics is ideal because it gives the healthy bugs something to feed on so they can then do good work in your body.

This product seemed to help my overall digestion. I could tell by the frequency and shape of my stool that it was having a positive effect on my body. I am experiencing less discomfort from bloating and gas as well. This is complimentary to my overall balanced healthy eating.

The recommendation is to take 2 capsules daily for a week then switch to 1 capsule daily for a week, then repeat the regimen.

A helpful probiotic and prebiotic regimen will:

  • improve your ability to digest foods
  • improve elimination
  • increase nutrient absorption
  • reduce gas and bloating
  • clearer thinking and better moods
  • weight loss
  • less sugar cravings

Taking the Flora Source Multi-Probiotic Women formula helped me experience several of these benefits. Check out this product if you are seeking a new probiotic/prebiotic formula!

Earnest Eats makes a variety of hot cereals, bars, and planks (crunchy bars). I’ve been eager to try this brand, it looks so wholesome, like something you would make at home. The Earnest Eats Hot Cereal is perfect for grabbing and taking to the office or even bringing to the airport. All you need to do is add hot water and you’ve got a hot, wholesome meal ready in a few minutes!

I decided to pump up the protein with my favorite pea protein: Plant Fusion. I had just worked out at the gym so I needed some extra protein for muscle recovery. This was a good grain based breakfast, I like the addition of some dried fruit and nuts to give it a pleasing change in consistency. All you do is add hot water to the cup, stir, and let it stand for a few minutes. You can eat it straight from the cup if you desire, so it’s perfect to grab and take to the office or for traveling.

Earnest Eats snack bar, this one was dark chocolate espresso. All good things in my book! This bar was dense and moist with a rich chocolate flavor and hint of espresso. A great snack, not too light, it’s got some staying power to it. I really enjoyed it and highly recommend for consumption Smile.
