Had ulcerative colitis about 10 years with 4-6 bouts of diarrhea every morning. Took antidiarrheal daily just to get off the toilet. Started on Dr. Ohhira's probiotics two years ago. Diarrhea improved and dosage of antidiarrheal reduced greatly. Yearly colonoscopies for the last four years. On Jan. 11th my colonoscopy showed I am in REMISSION. Inflammation is gone, diarrhea is gone. Tried other probiotics previous to Dr. Ohhira's with NO results. Thank you for your OUTSTANDING product.

Wow, we are excited to read you are doing so well!
Can't review a product I don't have.
Initially I responded to the wrong shipment. I did receive my shipment correct and on time. Essential Formulas is my go to source for the products they offer, both for customer service and product quality.

Hi Bill, USPS tracking shows the shipment is on the truck for delivery today. I will email you the tracking number for your January 26th order. The review request was for your order you placed in March of 2020. As we hoped you were satisfied with your probiotics, propolis and Reg'Activ Me-3.

I have been using this product for my daughter, and like the product. But the most recent one I received was in large clumps in the container, rather than a fine powder. It can’t be used and mixed into her drink when it is in big hard chunks. I am requesting a refund, this stuff is not cheap!

Hello C Clark,
I am sorry to read of your dissatisfaction, though a bit confused. All of our products are in capsules. Dr. Ohhira's Probiotic Originial Formula (which is the product you ordered) is a fermented paste that has been encapsulated. The plant seed oil is a vegetarian omega oil encpasulated and our skin products are not powder products. Would you please reach out to me at orders@essentialformulas.com and or upload a photo of your product and I can research further? We want every customer to have a good experience. It appears you are review another businesses product and not ours.
Quick and vegan!
I'm so happy there's a vegan version available. Probiotics that help create glutathione in the body are a wonderful thing. And the package arrived super quickly. Thank you!
