Tomorrow morning is it I'm finally going to take the test for bacterial overgrowth of the small intestine I've fasted for a couple of days literally.Staying away from foods I'm not supposed to have before the test, guys pray for me that I will take it well and that I will get the results that I'm hopeing will come back.Also about the Digestive Advantage IBS will it help with keeping away the dreaded D? I just hope so.

The Digestive Advantage works for some people and not for others. It all depends on what is causing the D. If you have a bacterial overgrowth, the doctor will put you on a strong and/or long course of antibiotics. If you take the DA during that time, it will help keep you from having such bad diarrhea due to the antibiotics; if you keep taking it for a month or two after the antibiotics are done with, then you have a good chance of repopulating your gut with good bacteria and getting it straightened out for good!
