Pure Encapsulations MotilPro | Hypoallergenic Dietary Supplement to Promote Healthy Gut Motility* | 180 Capsules

This product is certainly on the more expensive side, and it sucks that the serving size is three capsules because it's sometimes inconvenient. However, I think for the purposes of improving gut motility and even reducing inflammation, it is very helpful. This, in tandem with magnesium glycinate/citrate, has been incredibly helpful in improving my bowel movements and preventing constipation. I didn't find the after-taste to be at all disagreeable, you can taste the ginger but it is not something overwhelming. The good thing is that while the serving size is 3 capsules, it contains 180, so should last you nearly two months if you take the serving size once a day.

Works wonderful for SIBO motility issues. My advice is to work your way up to 6 a day. Start with 5 a day. Two in the morning. One after lunch and two at night. Once able to handle 5 add a second in the middle of the day but not at the same time as after lunch. Once you can handle the two in the middle of the day separately then you can take them at the same time like the two in the morning & evening. Drink an entire glass of water after each dose to alleviate any burning. If you drink the entire glass you won’t get any burning. If you experience any swallowing or weird esophageal feeling or discomfort in the beginning this is normal & will go away once your intestines start moving again. Don’t get scared or discouraged. Drink more water until the feeling passes. Your intestinal tract wasn’t moving & now is starting the normal wave pattern that moves everything through it. After a month or two any discomfort will go away & you will have normal motility again. Undertaking any regimen for motility issues is a daunting task. It will only get better if you persevere & push through. Once you get the motility back it’s easier to treat the SIBO with Low FODMAP & an herbal antimicrobial regimen.This seller is amazing & ships out immediately. The product is always the same. It would be even better if they’d put this on auto delivery.Update due to reviews having issues with 5-htp.SIBO stops the neurotransmitters from sending signals to the intestines to create the natural wave pattern moving food through. 5-HTP fixes those connections however if you have ADHD or ADD & are on medications for these which encourage serotonin production then moltipro may be too much for you. I’d try & use smaller amounts. If you feel uncomfortable or weird it may be too much serotonin production for your body.There may be other medical conditions as well where medications promote serotonin production also & I’d caution those as well.I have ADHD & can still use MoltiPro extremely successfully with medication adjustments (reduction) but I felt I needed to point this out for those of you who fall into the same category as I

This is the golden standard for intestine motility support. And it is high quality. Recommended dose of 3 pills might be a bit too much though.

I really WANTED and tried to like MotilPro prokinetic and stay with it to treat my SIBO and ensure my motility was on track, however, I was not able to tolerate it. And with testing on/off use I am sure it was a MotilPro reaction. I was, at times, taking it with Xifaxan and Neomycin, but at other times was taking it alone with no other medications to interfere with it. I took it for 4 weeks beginning with 1x / day, and slowly increasing to 2x, 3x per day over the four weeks. I took a dose before bed because I read that is the ideal time to take prokinetics before intestines do the middle of the night 'sweep'. I began to have symptoms during the night including: waking during night, dry *dry* mouth, gulping air down from the base of my neck, extreme thirst after drinking loads of water, trouble swallowing saliva, winded / out of breath, tossing/turning, sensation of my whole torso-body pulsing with my heartbeats, sensation of my heart working much harder than it should be - aware of my heart working rather than just being at peace and not being aware of it. I told my doctor and stopped taking it... I gave it a rest for 4 full days, and my body returned to a more normal feeling, I wasn't aware of my heartbeat and weird chest energy anymore. I returned to normal sleep patterns, normal breathing, swallowing, everything. Then I started it again slowly just 1x day on a Monday, and Tuesday. By Wednesday, I had to call in sick to work and sleep half the day. I was utterly exhausted, total body fatigue. I had trouble swallowing again, heart working harder again, hear my heartbeat in my ear when I'm sleeping, I wake up gasping for breath, I stopped breathing in my sleep on more than one occasion and was terrified - consciously willing my lungs to please start breathing, dry mouth, headache deep inside the back left quadrant of my brain, shallow fast breathing, yawning to get more air, bad exterior ear sensitivity pain laying in bed, energy felt off, felt like I'd been poisoned. My doctor and I agree I can't tolerate it and I've stopped taking it again. I'm not writing this to slam the product, and I take other pure encapsulation products fine, but as feedback to share with you that you MAY also have a poor reaction, and to be aware to tell your doctor if you do. You're not just taking a benign little ginger supplement. If I had to guess (which I do), I would say I have some problem with 5-HTP and you may want to do some reading on it first. I don't know if it caused Serotonin Syndrome in me or not, but I am wondering. If you google 5-HTP you'll find some cautionary statements about possible side effects. I wish someone had told me about that first and what to watch out for before I bought it, so I'm doing it now here in the hopes you'll also do your homework for your own health and safety. In hindsight, once it started bothering me, I should have completely stopped and not kept continuing to try to power through it and give it another chance.
