Probiotics, Enzymes, Anxiety and Autism!

If you read my blogs or follow me on social media you know that I have GAD… And of course Peyton is autistic. You also know, that I will not promote products from companies that I do not truly believe in… I try every single product, before I even consider writing a blog about them.

Klaire labs has been around for approximately half a century and has an impeccable reputation… So when Klaire labs approached me about working with them, to talk about their products, I was excited. I love the way that they approach their products, they aren’t full of a lot of extra ingredients that we don’t need or want to put into our bodies… I’m a huge believer in using as many natural products, not only for myself, but especially for Peyton.

A couple years ago I had an abscess tooth, I had to go on some antibiotics that were very strong… I’m allergic to a lot of antibiotics, so I’m very limited in what I can take. This particular antibiotic absolutely ate up my stomach. My husband went and talked to the pharmacist and she suggested getting on some probiotics. I thought this was just going to be another so so solution. I was really wrong! the probiotics really helped my stomach. In fact they help so much, that I put Peyton on them, as well.

There have been so many studies done, that show a link between Gut health and brain health. I’m not a big fan of taking a lot of meds and I’m certainly not a fan of putting Peyton on meds. I felt safe with probiotics. We bounced around from different probiotics, as I didn’t really find one that I was particularly enamored with.

When Klaire offered for us to try their probiotics, I was excited. Both Peyton and I have been using them and I can tell you we absolutely love them. They work really well… And I really like that they are powder. We put them in water and take them at night. Peyton will swallow pills, but he would prefer to have things in powder form.

There have been many studies done, that link gut bacteria to emotions, as well as how we react to different sights, sounds and textures… Meaning if our gut isn’t healthy… it Can make our entire body unhealthy. Too often we don’t think about the connections between our Gut and our brain… If our gut has issues, it tells our brain and our brain then tells our body, that it has issues!

We also were sent a bottle of their enzymes… Both Peyton and I have started taking the enzymes, particularly Peyton. We absolutely love these! they really do help with food digestion. This in turn helps with energy… Because as we improve our digestion of our food, our energy can go up!

Both Peyton and I have severe anxiety, which can cause us to get stomach aches and feel sick to our stomach which is so not fun, especially around the Holidays.

Between the probiotic and the enzymes that is helping digest the food better, I have noticed a significant positive in my gut.. so has Peyton! I know this sounds funny.. but it’s true.

Food enzymes can help reduce acidity, which can help with healthy digestion, the healthier the digestion, the healthier we become!

I feel 100% safe and secure using their products, and if I didn’t, I definitely would not be using them, and I certainly would not be highly recommending them as I am. I have been a blogger for several years now, and I have never written a blog supporting a company, unless I truly believe in the company.

When it comes to things like probiotics and enzymes that are being put into our bodies, I’m particularly skeptical. I can 100% say that I truly believe in these products and I will definitely continue to use it with our family.As an Autism/GAD family our gut health is very important to us.

As we go through the holiday season and beyond… We tend to eat a lot of foods, especially sweets and such.. this is an especially important time of year, that we make sure that we do the best for our system… Our guts… So follow your gut to Klaire labs products…. I promise it will thank you…
