Wellcare Provim IBS-Review
Product Claims of Wellcare Provim IBS
Wellcare Provim IBS is the focus of our product review. The manufacturer, Wellcare, claims that their product can assist with the regulation of intestinal fauna, help to balance internal pH, support the digestive system and help to alleviate the symptoms of IBS. Provim IBS contains probiotics. Provim IBS tablets are enteric coated and ensure that the probiotics reach the intestines without being affected by the acidic environment of the stomach.
Ingredients
- Lactobacillus acidophilus
- Sodium Butyrate
Lactobacillus acidophilus is a type of good bacteria that is found in your intestines and it plays a beneficial part in human health. It can also support stomach health but also has side effects such as intestinal gas or bloating upset stomach and diarrhea. Sodium Butyrate is the sodium salt of the butyric acid. Butyrate is a short chain fatty production found in the colon.
Dosage Instructions
Swallow two enteric coated tablets twice daily (4 total) for 10 days during acute IBS attacks. Take two tablets once a day during the protection phase. The dosage instructions do not specify if you should take the capsules with food or water, or if you can take them all in one sitting or if you should spread them out.
Cost and Guarantee
You can't purchase this product directly from the manufacturer, but we did find it for sale on third-party websites for around $40.00. Shipping costs vary depending on the retailer. The manufacturer does not offer bulk buying discounts or new customer incentives. There are only 30 tablets in a box so this is a very expensive product to buy and use. We did not find a manufacturer's guarantee or return policy for this product.
Summary Of Our Wellcare Provim IBS Review
Wellcare IBS has some positive features. It utilizes beneficial ingredients (probiotics) for treating the symptoms of IBS and restoring the correct intestinal fauna and pH. There are clear dosage instructions provided on the company website. The product comes in an easy to swallow enteric coated format which ensures that the therapeutic probiotic ingredients reach the intestines without being affected by the acidic secretions of the stomach. We do have some criticisms, however. There is no guarantee or return policy offered by this manufacturer. There are no bulk buying discounts or new customer incentives. We found this to be an expensive product at $40 for 30 tablets. (When keeping to the recommended dose of 4 tablets per day you will soon run out of tablets). Shipping costs are extra and there are no free shipping offers. There is no assurance from the manufacturer that the ingredients in this product are non-GMO, free from fillers and binders, or that the product is suitable for vegans and vegetarians. There are not enough details about possible side effects or warnings for use. For all these reasons, we are unable to recommend this product. We suggest that you look to other brands of IBS supplement for a better course of treatment. We were most concerned about the lack of guarantee, the high price, and lack of side effect and warning information.
