Can I take two OptiBac Probiotics supplements at the same time?
You can take two OptiBac Probiotics products at the same, to absolutely no harm. It is possible to 'mix and match' products within the OptiBac range, and there are a few factors that you may wish to consider if doing so:
- Saccharomyces boulardii in the product For bowel calm has a different mode of action to other probiotics, and can therefore be taken alongside any other product in the OptiBac range. Many of our customers with conditions such as Candida, IBS or IBD take both For daily wellbeing EXTRA Strength and For bowel calm on a regular basis.
- Many people have difficulty choosing between For daily wellbeing (primarily for overall health, in particular digestive health) and For daily immunity (more for those with poor immunity). If you are having trouble deciding between the two try 'mixing and matching' by taking one capsule of each product every day. This way, your body receives the antioxidants from For daily immunity, with extra probiotics & prebiotics from For daily wellbeing. Complete cover for both your immune and digestive system.
- For a flat stomach and For daily wellbeing are often purchased together. Each of these products contains 5 billion micro organisms per daily dose, both with added prebiotics, hence it is not necessary to take them at the same time. If you did buy these products together, we recommend starting with the seven-day intensive course of For a flat stomach, and then going on to For daily wellbeing for maintenance.
At the end of the day, there is generally no harm in taking a couple of probiotic products at the same time. For further reassurance, see Can I overdose on probiotics?
