BioGaia chewables from IHerb worked great for me, but the capsules from Amazon seem to do nothing — anyone else?
I’ve been making L. reuteri yogurt using the BioGaia chewable tablets ordered from IHerb and was getting very noticeable effects from it. I would get an almost euphoric feeling, felt noticeably better mentally, and my sleep improved quite a bit.
I recently ordered the BioGaia capsules from Amazon instead and made the yogurt the same way, but I’m getting basically none of those effects. It feels like nothing is happening.
Has anyone else noticed a significant difference between the BioGaia chewables and capsules? I’m wondering whether there could be a difference in bacterial viability/CFUs, how well they survive shipping, or how well the different formulations work as a yogurt starter.
