Hey guys.. I just started taking probiotics again and although things are mostly working a lot better in my body, I've started getting random moments of foggy head/ mild dizzyness... has anyone experienced this before? I wonder if it's related at all...

I've not heard of it or connected it to dizziness in my self before. I have read from jordan rubin that the strain S. thermophilus could cause a worsening of condition in some people with IBS or leaky gut. If you have either of those conditions maybe you'd want to find a form without it included?

Sounds like you're detoxing from candida, which is a good thing. You can start more slowly with them if it's too difficult, but likely it's better to stick with it. Which formula are you taking?

I don't know about probiotics and dizziness. I experienced a lot of dizziness detoxing when exercising. It happened during week 4 of being raw. I got so dizzy it felt like I was drunk. If I sat down it would pass. Kind of scary. After a week it stopped happening, never happened again.

Take their HSO's as well, and see if that helps any. I think they brought me overall improvement. (I can't remember if they are part of the Primal Defense or not)

I'm using Garden of Life's Primal Defense. Good brand. :) I like the Ultra formula because you only need one or two caps. Candida and other similar issues can cause different detox symptoms when you're healing. You can always contact Garden of Life for assistance/recommendations.

It says on the bottle that it is a 'Proprietary HSO Probiotic Blend'.. All I know is that for once probiotics are actually making a difference in my body.. all the times people told me to take them and they never did anything. I ran a half marathon on Sunday, and decided to take them the night before just to be sure that my body wasn't going to get depleted and now I'm seeing great change! Regularity, less bloating, easier digestion... and no more constant headaches.. YAY!
