I haven't been taking this a full month yet, but the intended effect may show up soon. I had been craving potato chips (salty, greasy, crispy) and dark chocolate (cookies or candy). The cravings are not quite as strong but still there somewhat (may be more of a habit for those particular items than a craving now). I have "slight reflux" per my gastroenterologist. The only symptom is a dry hacking cough that really hurts my throat and causes wheezing when I breathe. I am hoping that whenever, or if ever, I start losing weight (I'm probably 50+ pound overweight) that the cough and wheezing subside some. Hoping the Prebiothrive will help correct the balance in my gut and this will eventually balance all other aspects of my body and life.
I do have a problem with the packaging though. If the canister were shorter and wider, it would be easier to get my hand inside to scoop the powder. The powder does cake and is hard to dissolve. I end up drinking a small amount of little lumps of the powder, so it seems a little gritty. Otherwise, it is tasteless, so I don't have a problem with the flavor while drinking it.
I know this review is probably not going to be helpful, but as I said I haven't been taking it long enough yet to really tell if it will help me or not.
There needs to be another choice below on if I would recommend this to a friend as I'm not sure yet if I would or not so at this point I am marking NO, but that could change in the future.
Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend
