My 12 Week Bowtrol Pro­bi­otic Trial Results

  • Reg­u­lar­ity: Daily (Never before in my life!)
  • Weight: 144 lbs (Lost 10 pounds!)
  • Energy Lev­els: Ener­getic (Pre­vi­ously “Slug­gish”)
  • Sick Days Last Month: 0 (Down from ~2.5 monthly)

Need­less to say, as skep­ti­cal as I was orig­i­nally, I really love Bowtrol Pro­bi­otic and I fore­see myself using it for a long time. In fact, I hon­estly believe that Bowtrol Pro­bi­otic is so effec­tive that its going to become a lead­ing, long-term diges­tive health solu­tion, much like Proac­tive Skin Care for skin health. Actu­ally, now that my 3 month sup­ply is up, I just re-ordered 4 more bot­tles and I got 2 bot­tles free with this spe­cial pro­mo­tion!

If you’re still a bit skep­ti­cal about whether or not Bowtrol Pro­bi­otic is right for you, read on for an in depth look into my expe­ri­ence with it over the past 12 weeks.

My Life­long Strug­gle with Con­sti­pa­tion (Before Bowtrol)

If you’ve been fol­low­ing my blog, you know that my dad, William McKey, trag­i­cally died of colon can­cer in March 2008. Grow­ing up, diges­tive prob­lems were always com­mon in my large Irish fam­ily, but I never thought any­thing of them besides the occa­sional embar­rass­ing sit­u­a­tion until they took my dad. I remem­ber look­ing at my 3 chil­dren upset, con­fused, say­ing good­bye to grampa for the last time and, through my tears, I made a promise to god and myself that I would be around for my kids for a very, very long time. Moreso, like my father, I’ve suf­fered from chronic con­sti­pa­tion for as long as I can remem­ber and I didn’t want to live in pain and dis­com­fort like my father had for years, so I took it upon myself to get edu­cated about diges­tive health.

Over the fol­low­ing year, I tried every­thing. I began read­ing lots of books, talk­ing to “healthy peo­ple,” vis­it­ing health food stores, etc. I tried all kinds of sup­ple­ments, hocus-pocus snake-oil scams, etc., but noth­ing worked.

I was still con­sti­pated, only able to go to the bath­room 2–4 times a week.

I finally decided to take visit a proper nutri­tion­ist (not cheap!) who rec­om­mended I start eat­ing more foods with pro­bi­otics, such as yogurt and kefir. In ret­ro­spect, I don’t think those foods actu­ally helped my reg­u­lar­ity at all, but I thought they were yummy, which was enough to ignite my inter­est in pro­bi­otic sup­ple­ments. I went to my local, fantsy-pants health food store and asked them what was the best pro­bi­otic sup­ple­ment they had.

I was pleas­antly sur­prised that I no longer got severely con­sti­pated (4 days), but I wasn’t quite reg­u­lar either, so I went search­ing for the best pro­bi­otics. Even­tu­ally, I ran into an old friend who I hadn’t seen in years (Hi Janet!), and I told her about what had hap­pened to my father. To my shock, since I’d last seen her, Janet has sur­vived colon can­cer her­self! As she was telling me her story, she men­tioned a prod­uct that she still takes now that her can­cer treat­ment is over, Bowtrol Pro­bi­otic. She gave it a rav­ing rec­om­men­da­tion and showed me where I could buy it online at a dis­count.

As great as it sounded, I felt ner­vous about buy­ing Bowtrol online, but after check­ing out the web­page and doing some more research, I felt very con­fi­dent about try­ing out Bowtrol Pro­bi­otic. Here’s why–

Why I Chose Bowtrol Probiotic

The prospect of buy­ing sup­ple­ments online made me uncom­fort­able. Prior to Janet’s rec­om­men­da­tion of Bowtrol Pro­bi­otic, I’d sim­ply never done it. Regard­less, Janet’s rec­om­men­da­tion was strong enough for me to go do some extra research. Here’s what I found–

  • Rep­utable Company

The first thing I dis­cov­ered is that Bowtrol Pro­bi­otic is made by the same rep­utable com­pany as the extremely pop­u­lar ad rep­utable Bowtrol Colon Cleanse (here’s a free trial if you’re inter­ested). So I real­ized this wasn’t just some no name company.

Now here’s some­thing you don’t see at the the fancy health food stores! This was the deal breaker for me. How could I go wrong if, worst case sce­nario, I’d get all my money back? And if that wasn’t enough–

  • Great Cus­tomer Service!

One of the things I absolutely hate about order­ing online is that there’s nobody to talk to if some­thing goes wrong. I actu­ally was hav­ing trou­ble with my credit card and I sent them an email and heard back almost immediately.

  • MUCH Cheaper than Store Bought Supplements

It’s no secret to any­body that health food stores are expen­sive. They pri­mar­ily tar­get wealthy fam­i­lies, and frankly, I usu­ally can’t afford their prod­ucts. I was happy to find that I could buy Bowtrol Pro­bi­otic for 30%-40% less than store bought Pro­bi­otic Sup­ple­ment prices.

Changes I Observed Over the 12 Week Bowtrol Pro­bi­otic Trial

Bowtrol Pro­bi­otic is pri­mar­ily sup­posed to diges­tive reg­u­lar­ity, but to my huge sur­prise, I found that this was only a frac­tion of the benefits.

  • Diges­tive Regularity

This is REALLY excit­ing for me! My entire life, I have suf­fered from painful, humil­i­at­ing con­sti­pa­tion. At the begin­ning of my 12 week trial, I had a bowel move­ment every 2–4 days. For the first time in my life, I have daily reg­u­lar­ity. Both my par­ents suf­fered from con­sti­pa­tion their entire lives, and unfor­tu­nately that resulted in colon can­cer, which took my dad’s life. I’ve got­ten my mom (59 years old) on Bowtrol Pro­bi­otic and she LOVES it (scroll down to read her opin­ion below)

For­tu­nately, unlike my pre­vi­ous pro­bi­otic sup­ple­ments, Bowtrol doesn’t cause gas, which has really been help­ing my social life ;)

  • I lost 10 pounds!

This I’m pretty shocked about. Nowhere on any of the pro­mo­tional mate­r­ial for Bowtrol Pro­bi­otic does it promise weight loss, but it hap­pened! My diet has remained pretty con­sis­tent. I do my best to cook healthy for the kids, but we have the occa­sional rice-crispies treats night :) . I haven’t begun any kind of exer­cise pro­gram, just my reg­u­lar peri­odic walks, so I really think it is the Bowtrol Pro­bi­otic. I’m still kind of in dis­be­lief! 10 pounds!

My ex asked me if I was on some crazy diet when he came to pick up the kids last week­end. I just kept my mouth shut with a smug look on my face :)

  • Dra­mat­i­cally Higher Energy Levels

I dis­cov­ered is that being con­sti­pated is exhaust­ing! First of all, I was lit­er­ally car­ry­ing around sev­eral pounds of extra weight at any point in time. Fur­ther­more, it turns out that the body exerts a lot of energy con­tain­ing all of that waste, so by purg­ing it reg­u­larly, it frees up the body to use that energy for other more pleas­ant activites.

On top of that, the pro­bi­otic bac­te­ria actu­ally help me digest food my food more fully and bet­ter uti­lize the nutri­ents in it, so I’m stor­ing less of that food as fat and using more of it for energy!

  • Bet­ter moods

With my increased energy lev­els, I’ve found my moods to be dra­mat­i­cally bet­ter. It’s so much eas­ier to wake up in the morn­ings and daily chores and respon­si­bil­i­ties are so much less of a burden.

  • Bet­ter immunity

Good pro­bi­otic sup­ple­ments help the body remove tox­ins that we ingest in food and gen­er­ally help the body rebal­ance its immune func­tions. This lit­tle “side-benefit” has prob­a­bly saved me at least 2 days of being sick every month. It’s Fall now so it gets really cold in those soc­cer bleach­ers, so I’m really enjoy­ing stay­ing healthy while the other par­ents are cough­ing and sniffling.

  • Bet­ter Fem­i­nine Health

Sorry if this is blunt or unpleas­ant for the boys, but tough luck. There is a lot of “healthy bac­te­ria” in the vagi­nal area that keep our lady parts healthy and bal­anced. For var­i­ous rea­sons includ­ing med­ica­tions, con­tra­cep­tives, ill­ness, etc., this bal­ance can get dis­rupted and that’s when fun things like yeast infec­tions hap­pen. Bowtrol Pro­bi­otic sup­ple­ment actu­ally aids in main­tain­ing appro­pri­ate lev­els of healthy bac­te­ria down there so that yeast infec­tions and sim­i­lar prob­lems are a thing of the past. Inter­est­ingly, I’ve found that my peri­ods have also got­ten slightly less dread­ful. Cer­tainly not a bad side benefit!

The worst thing about Bowtrol Probiotic!

I had to go shop­ping! Hello size 6!

Ok, so I didn’t have to go shop­ping, but I decided to cel­e­brate by splurg­ing and pick­ing up this sexy lit­tle number:

My Mom’s (59 Years Old) Bowtrol Pro­bi­otic Review

Hi Suzy,

First of all, I wanted to say thank you for look­ing out for me after you dad passed away. Since we both had sim­i­lar diges­tive prob­lems when he was alive, it is a bit dis­con­cert­ing to think that I may go the same way. How­ever, over the past 4 weeks that I’ve been using Bowtrol Pro­bi­otic, I’ve been remark­ably impressed with the impact its had on my reg­u­lar­ity. Hon­estly, when you first told me that you were finally going to bath­room daily, I almost didn’t believe it. I thought of all those nights you cried after school because your were in dis­com­fort, or were embar­rassed because you had to stay home while your friends when out, and how it all broke my heart because there was really noth­ing I could do to help. We tried all of tra­di­tional approaches that my mom  passed to me, such as prunes, and spinach and all kind of strange Irish con­coc­tions, but in the long run noth­ing seemed to work.

For every­one that reads this, I would like to tell you one thing, I’ve suf­fered from 59 years of con­sti­pa­tion and diges­tive trou­bles, and in 59 years, absolutely noth­ing has helped me the way that Bowtrol Pro­bi­otic has. Every­day I wake up feel­ing lighter and more reju­ve­nated than I have in years. The dif­fer­ence is truly dra­matic, but gen­tle. I was wor­ried that Bowtrol Pro­bi­otic, like many lax­a­tives, may make me sen­si­tive to cer­tain foods and cause fre­quent diar­rhea, but the effects of Bowtrol are far more gen­tle on the body.

My only wish is that I would have found this 10 years ear­lier, and maybe your dad would still be with us today.

Just as I’ve told my other 4 chil­dren now, any­body that has a his­tory of diges­tive trou­bles, it is with utmost sin­cer­ity that I rec­om­mend you try Bowtrol Pro­bi­otic. If you are young, don’t wait until you are my age, and if you’re a fel­low senior like myself, its not too late. Its very afford­able with a 100% money back guar­an­tee, so I can afford it, even on a wid­ows income.

Suzy, thank you again sweet­heart, I can’t tell you how much this means to me. I love you very much and keep you in my prayers every night. I’m so proud of you for tak­ing the lead and doing some­thing that is going to help all of our fam­ily and so many of your readers.

Warmest hugs and Kisses,

Your mom — Lil­lian McKey 10/19/08
