Lifted Naturals Mood Boosting Probiotic 30 Billion CFU - Mood Support Supplement, Prebiotics and Probiotics for Women & Men, Acidophilus Lactobacillus Probiotic, Shelf Stable & Non-GMO, 60 Capsules

I take this product with an SSRI and a mood stabilizer. The product nothing short of amazing and works better the longer you take it!!! I'm very in tune with my body and noticed a difference the first day! It has helped tremendously with both depression and anxiety. About 3 weeks in I found myself listening to the radio in the morning staring to beebop a little dance along with the radio.....in....the.....MORNING!!! :)I've taken it for about 2 months now and I have found my love of music again, I really missed that about myself! I used to turn the music up loud and sing and dance at home, before this product I hadn't done that for a loooong time. But I'm doing it again now! I find myself connecting and paying attention to things more. My anxiety is way down and I'm able to handle stressful things at work much better and I'm not as irritable. My mood is lighter and I'm just happier in general.I take this supplement in the evening as it chills me out too much to take during the day. However, my best friend takes it during the day as it gives her energy. You'll just have to try it out and find out what part of the day works best for you.I never put anything on auto-ship but I just did with this one last week! I seriously do not want to forget to order and be without this stuff!A WORD OF CAUTION WHEN TAKING WITH PRESCRIPTION MEDICATION: Start SLOW. I started with 1/2 a pill for about a week and then moved up from there to find the right dose for me. It took me about a month and a half to find the right dose but I've settled on 1 and 3/4 of a pill per day. If I take 2 whole pills I'm a little tired and my motivation suffers.I have seen some people say they can stop taking prescription medication with this, however, I feel I have a need for both. However, modern medication has only gotten depression and anxiety to "ok" levels. With the addition of supplements, I think we can get to "great" levels.A WORD OF CAUTION WHEN TAKING WITH OTHER GABA SUPPLEMENTS:I'd been taking L-Theanine before starting this. If you take this or any other GABA Supplements you will need to reduce the GABA supplements or you will be extremely tired. I slowly weaned off of the L-Theanine all together and replaced with Lifted. However, I was so nervous about reducing to fast that I spent a good week pretty tired. So as I went up on the probiotic I went down on the L-Theanine until I didn't need it at all.

I have used this Pro Biotic for 3 weeks and it really made a diff. Does not completely take away stress and anxiety since nothing can really do that, it helps control sleep and overall mood.

I bought this product for the probiotics and the mood boosting claims. My first time using a probiotic and something for mood. I found this product definitely worked for me! I noticed results right away even though I felt like I didn't really need a probiotic. This is a great product!!

I received the item today. Packaging perfect (looks like generic items I bought before, lets hope it works.), item sealed, pill is gel on outside feeling, bot to large for me, easy to swallow. No smell I can detect (I will post updated reviews on how it works for me).

My sister raved on this probiotic. Said it increased her mood and helped her have BM. I decided to try it. I know my body and never go full force on the amount to take. It suggests one capsule 1-2 times daily with a meal. I took one with my meal and started to notice the feeling of being bloated. I don't get bloated due to being mostly eating a carnivore diet. Not only was I bloated, I started to get gasy. Also, not a case on how I eat. My stomach hurt. After one capsule, I am gifting the rest of the bottle to my sister. It worked for her; just not for me.

First of all, I don't usually write reviews. This has impacted my life in such a way that I feel the need to write something if nothing else to help others going though what I went though. That said, I've been waiting to write this review because I wanted to wait a decent amount of time to ensure it wasn't wishful thinking or if there would be a rebound in my results. First I'm going to list some issues I've had that are relevant to my situation, and then fill it in with backstory.-=Symptoms beforehand=-* Constant Anxiety for no apparent reason. -always worried, no idea why. No major life change to worry about* Horrible nightmares that would come out of nowhere. (extremely realistic)* Stool was always soft and greasy* unable to sleep all night* Brain fog/confusion* odd lightheaded feeling that I can't explain in words* heart palpitations* unbelievable amounts of fatigue* no joy in doing ANYTHING, couldn't even get into TV* constant acid reflux, especially bad at night.-=Symptoms afterwards=-* Anxiety stopped in under a week of taking these two times a day* First few days I had stomach upset but it subsided fairly quickly* no more acid reflux after two weeks.* No more nightmares.* finally able to sleep an entire night* minimal fatigue to none now. (getting better every day, almost at a month)* brain fog has gotten much better* heart palpitations have almost completely gone away.* finally living and enjoying life again* Stool is more regular and no greasy.Small backstory:I'm sensitive to specific strains of Pro-biotics. I didn't always know this, but over the past few years its become apparent. My problem started after being on Nutrisystem shakes that contain a probiootic. (I didnt know it at the time but I created my problem because of this. Also found that "white pearls" effect me as well. After being on "normal" probiotics I eventually got a constant nervous feeling of impending doom which eventually turned into worrying about family, death, etc. not great stuff. I was constantly nostalgic and wishing I was back when times were good. (not that times aren't now, but I felt bad for so long I felt like this was what life was going to be like for now on) I had no idea why I had fallen into this feeling, but every day and every night I had it, for over a year. I was absolutely miserable. My Dr. tried to put me on Lexipro. -Biggest mistake for me ever. It compounded my issue ten fold, gave me insomnia, etc. I stopped the pills after a week due to not even being able to function at work. I never got back to baseline after that. Its the closest I've ever felt to insanity. When that didn't work he suggested I talk to a psychiatrist. I knew deep down this had to be a medical condition and not some underlying stress thing but didn't know what to do. I was alone with nobody to help. After much reading online I found information about what happens when you gut bacteria is off and how that effects well being. From there I found a group forum talking about many different similar issues I was having and they all recommended this product. I decided to purchase it and give it a try. (mostly because of the reviews) I couldn't believe that after a few days of starting this probiotic, finally, after over a YEAR of anxiety, I finally started to find relief. After a few days I had actually slept all night and was shocked.Truth be told, I'm pretty upset at the three Dr's I've gone to with NONE of them even suggesting a probitoic like this. In retrospect I don't even believe at this point they took me seriously because I didn't want to be on an SSRI. (basically it was my fault for feeling this way because I don't want to be on medication) Further When I discussed how my stomach was always upset and how fatigued I'd get after eating even small meals, it was suggested I just try other meals. Unbelievable.At anyway rate, if you've made it this far in this wall -o- text of a review, I'd implore ANYONE who has any of these symptoms to at least give this an honest try for a week. It has saved me in ways I can't even begin to explain. I keep a bottle at work and a bottle at home. That was I always have them for lunch and dinner.I Hope this helps even one person make the leap. I know not everything works for everyone, but this has changed my life and finally fixed the issues I was having. Stay well everyone!
