Not for those with Autoimmiune Issues
These Probiotics in theory are great. The only issue I have with them is that they contain Ashwagandha root-- which is a part of the nightshade family (tomato, peppers, eggplant, potato.) For those with more pronounced Leaky Gut or autoimmune issues, nightshades can cause damage to the intestinal lining. This is sad, because those of us with autoimmune issues need probiotics the most. I thought I was avoiding "potato starch" which is in SO many probiotic supplements, just to discover I was taking something similar by a different name. I took a half dose, and these gave me pretty pronounced joint pain. While this is in no way the manufacturers fault, it would be nice if they could promote a product meant for those with autoimmunity. For those with food sensitivities (namely nightshades,) these may not be for you.
