Do probiotics actually work?

The ones you buy in little tubs are so-so.. the reason being that they lose potency the moment they are created. Ideally you want to stick to something which is self sustaining like Kimchi or Sauerkraut but make sure you get unpasteurised as obviously pasteurising it kills the probiotics

Does it work? well after going full vegan i didn't eat any fermented foods and started to get a stomach ache after lots of alcohol, i then started eating Sauerkraut and kimchi and more tempeh and i dont have that issue, but if i go for a while without them it comes back, so at least for me it makes a difference, it just depends on your diet already... its like taking vitamins if you already get everything from your food, its pointless

If you have a well balanced diet and balanced lifestyle, yes they are effective, in which case you most likely don't need an added supplement.

If you treat yourself like shit and you're not managing your life well, they won't do a thing for you.

If you are taking a quality one yes. It is best to take prebiotics and probiotics. Kombucha or kimchi is a good source for probiotics. I recommend the brand GT for kombucha.
