Objective Nutrients Gutmax Gut Formula with Lactoferrin and Butyrate, Enteric Capsules, No Fillers or Flow Agents, 60 Count

This probiotic is designed to help repair your gut, even if it is in total disarray. Each addition to the ingredients is formulated to aid gut health. The butyrate is what smells like wonky cheese. I’ve tried each of these ingredients from other brands with minimal results. My only conclusion is that ON has come up with a phenomenal combination of gut health ingredients and each one is a very high quality version, as per usual for this brand. I have some weird allergic issues, slow gut motility, brain fog and fatigue that I’ve been working through since I lived in an apartment where the AC was infested with mold and the apartment manager would not properly remediate it. Initially, these pills were extremely daunting — I would get a very bad histamine response after taking them. I could only take them once a week, usually on a Friday night so I could recover over the weekend. However, I noticed, unlike other probiotics, they were the only ones making my condition genuinely better where I could eat more foods, feel less fatigued, had slightly better motility after using them. The Saccromyces boulardii does most of the leg work. It is extremely good for outcompeting pathogenic microbes (bacteria, fungus) and any kind of microbe overgrowth. The butyrate and lactoferrin help further normalize the gut environment and support positive changes. If you have slow gut motility, the only downside is these may temporarily increase that before it gets better, due to the saccromyces boulardii. What I did when I was at my worst to tolerate these was an allergy pill, binder capsule around the same time of taking them, a little bit of aspirin, and magnesium citrate. I don’t know if that will be helpful to anyone else, but it is worthwhile to note in case someone is in a similar boat to me. Almost all other probiotics just caused more harm. I truly believe this combination of ingredients is the safest, most effective way of targeting microbiome issues and disruption.

The more I read about how critical maintaining gut health is, the more I look for products such as this one to help me do just that. The gut has been called your "second brain" (or for some people it might be their ONLY brain) Anyway, you need to do everything you can to keep it healthy and happy. This formula contains butyrate which can help seal gaps between intestinal cells, reducing your risk of leaky gut syndrome. It is full of ingredients that aim to control inflammation and improve your immune response. The manufacturer claims that the product helps keep the gross and harmful bacteria and fungi from growing and keeps the good stuff intact by replenishing the beneficial organisms. You need loads of good flora, after all. This may help with irritable bowel syndrome, but I couldn't find any peer-reviewed studies to support this. Your best bet, as always, is to consult with a physician or gut specialist and ask them to weigh in. It would help if you did some research yourself as well. Oh, I almost forgot- I really like the fact that these capsules are designed to combat the erosive effects of your stomach acid long enough to allow the product to make its way to your intestines. This means more of the good stuff gets where it works best.

This product contains dairy. I know it has that listed, but I thought I'd mention that in case you are used to the other Objective Nutrients products that do not. I am allergic to dairy, but only in my esophagus. I think I should be okay with these because it should pass the stomach before it breaks up. Not that you should try it if you have a more severe or different type of allergy. I would prefer if he came out with a dairy free option instead. I buy hundreds of dollars of supplements from ON so I had to give these a try when I saw them. Elliot's channel has really helped me with the high dose TTFD. I also bought the book from Dr. Lonsdale. I have taken butyrate previously and didn't notice a huge difference. However my gi has been a bit messed up lately, so perhaps it was helping and I didn't realize. The pills are small and easy to swallow. I put them in my pill container so I don't notice a smell issue. The regular price is $32.99 for 60 days supply.

Very bad smell and one of the capsules was broken so open the bottle was really hard to do because of the smell

This supplement is a great example of what I look for when I read supplement labels. I always want as few "other ingredients" as possible. The only other ingredients in this supplement is the gelatin used to make the capsule. Then you get pretty much just the supplements you bought this for. These are easy to swallow. We got them because my husband has a sensitive stomach and we're hoping this might be helpful. In addition to the great ingredients, I'm happy that it's made in the US and not in China. I don't trust the manufacturing processes in China, so I try to avoid Chinese manufactured supplements.

In order for me to trust a supplement it must be made in the USA in a GMP-certified facility and be third-party lab tested. It is unclear if Objective Nutrients Gutmax supplement meets my requirements. It is made in the USA in a GMP-certified facility. They do not mention third-party lab testing. I have reached out to the company to inquire about testing since I do not feel comfortable taking supplements that haven't been independently tested for purity and potency. I will update this review if I receive an answer. This supplement is free of GMO's, gluten, soy, wheat, shellfish, sesame, artificial colors, and preservatives. The capsules are enteric coated to protect the contents from being destroyed in the stomach. Each bottle will last 60 days at the suggested daily serving size of one capsule. At the current price of $32.99, the cost per serving is $0.55. Objective Nutrients has a well-developed website and is active on social media with followers. The supplement label provides a full street address in the United Kingdom and a website address. This supplement is made in the USA so this address is not the manufacturing facility. The website provides a contact form for customer assistance.

The Gutmax Gut Repair Formula probiotics is an effective supplement that helps keep things moving along. The capsules are easy to swallow and don't have much of a taste. The smell on the other hand, well, it's not great. But I grin and bear it while I chug water to get it down. Sometimes healthy stuff doesn't smell like cotton candy, and that's ok. I feel like the health benefits outweigh the funk factor. The capsules are designed to survive the journey to the intestines, which is great because some other probiotics can't make it past the stomach. This is a high-quality probiotic made in the USA. I like to add it to my vitamin mix each day to help combat the effects of the modern American diet.
