Multibionta Complete Multivitamin with minerals & probiotic nutrients

It's rare for someone to become particularly enthusiastic about a vitamin tablet, but I think these are absolutely fantastic - they contain probiotics! (which are 'friendly bacteria' that are claimed to improve digestion etc). Generally I tend to have a really pretty good healthy diet, mainly because I am allergic to nearly everything that isn't a fruit or a vegetable and 'freefrom' goodies are often so stupidly expensive that I don't tend to bother with junkfood!

Well, that’s what they claim on their web-site……. Hang on, a multivitamin with a web-site, what IS the world coming to!? It was suggested by my doctor that I should take this multivitamin because I wasn’t eating very well as I suffer with stomach thrush (no, it’s not very nice). He suggested this particular one because as I couldn’t eat anything ‘interesting’ I wasn’t taking any vitamins or minerals into my body, also because it has ‘probiotic nutrients, and it should help my immune system to cope while I was feeling a little run down (it also helps break down the nasty stuff in the bowel). ...  Read the complete review
