The Beauty Chef probiotics

I am wondering if anyone out there has used this brand of probiotics. I recently pitched the sample sizes and they taste soo good. But I’m not sure what they’re supposed to do... any help?

@yareta93 (Sorry for long post!) 

Probiotics in general add to your current GUT microflora (“good bacteria”) population. Consuming probiotics mainly impacts your gut health (and some of Beauty Chef probiotics contain yeast species as well). While gut bacteria aids in whole body health (such as producing vitamin B12, converting fiber to lower cholesterol, etc), I am not sure how consuming probiotics has any DIRECT relation with your skin microflora, especially because it’s considered abnormal when your gut bacteria translocate to other parts of your body. 

I’m not familiar with Beauty Chef but after a quick google search and reading the ingredients, it seems that they usually combine prebiotics (basically food for the good bacteria) and probiotics (bacteria). In my opinion, it isn’t worth the high price tag if you are already consuming a well balanced diet and taking probiotic supplements (very affordable on Amazon). Beauty Chef uses the same species that is commonly found in other probiotic supplements.

Thank you!! You seem very informed, and I really appreciate the long post! I too thought the price tag for most the products, if not all, are too steep! I’ll keep looking into them and consider amazon! You were so helpful!

@yareta93 Since you're headed to Amazon, I've been buying the Probiotic Pearls there for years. Hands down my favorite of what's available out there... Walgreens carries them too.
