Are probiotics safe to use?

Question

Hi friends! I took a probiotic capsule everyday before I found out u was pregnant. It helps with digestion and it cleared up some acne I was having. Ever since I found out I was expecting, I stopped taking it because I wasn't sure if it was safe. I was using the Gardeb of Life brand from whole foods. Any suggestions?

Answer

Pharmacy student!! Probiotics are perfectly fine, trying and stick to the ones that aren't refrigerated first!!

Answer

Yes but only if approved by your doctor. My nurse midwife put me on an Rx prenatal that he probiotics and DHA. I love it since it helps w digestion.

Answer

My midwife and naturopath insist that I be on a probiotic while TTC and while pregnant. You are sharing your flora with baby, best to get it healthy and diverse! :)

Answer

Yes probiotics are great!!!!!! My husband works in vitamins and I asked the same thing. I actually take a prenatal vitamin that has a bunch of probrotics in it. I am also taking enzymes and they kinda help with my morning sickness as well.
