Will the synbiotic duo cap help with constipation?Updated 3 months ago

Probiotics in general can help with constipation over time, but they may cause some initial discomfort when you first start taking them. For the first 1-4 weeks, as probiotics work to restore gut balance, your digestive system might slow down temporarily which can result to constipation.

Over time, probiotics help boost the production of short-chain fatty acids, which stimulate the muscles found in the colon in order to promote regular bowel movements and soften stool consistency.

Since constipation can have many different causes, we always recommend speaking to your GP first before starting any supplement.
