Best of Thingtesting4.2

Seed earns largely positive reviews as an effective probiotic that improves regularity, eases bloating, and supports digestion and even skin for many users, though a sizable group reports no noticeable benefits or experiences side effects like nausea, bloating, or gut pain. Reviews also praise Seed’s chic, eco-friendly glass-and-refill system and science-forward education, while calling out high cost, large two-capsule dose, occasional subscription frustrations, and fragile glass travel vials.

  • Very high quality supplement. I like that it helps to sleep and improve gut health, but overall doesn’t make much difference in the sleep for the price point. Maybe another supplement from Seed is better.

  • I've been taking these supplements on and off since about 2020, and I think it's a solid probiotic. It's certainly pricier than many other options out there, but they work well, and it's no question that the higher cost is going into the chic packaging and aspirational marketing. From the other reviews, it seems like some folks have had issues with nausea and bloating, but I've never had an issue — fwiw I'm 5'9" and about 150 lbs and 5'9", and I usually take them first thing in the morning on an empty stomach to get things movin' and groovin'. And they do work — my proof is that I had been taking them regularly right up until my first colonoscopy, and wound up with a great result. As far as areas of improvement, I do wish that the six-month discount were more substantial, and that it were possible to cancel subscriptions from your account instead of making you do the whole email run-around.

  • The supplement itself is fine, but the packaging is absurd—especially for a product promoted as good for planetary health. The box and heft jars are far more packaging than is needed to hold these probiotics. Their "Sustainability" page is mostly fluff and reflects greenwashing. The solution is simply to use LESS PACKAGING.

  • I just today got diagnosed with deep endometriosis and I’ve been having severe abdominal pain behind my belly button. I also discovered a lump behind my belly button. I’ve tried so many different probiotics which none have helped. I just took my first pill of this one and I can’t wait to see the full results and to see if the brand SEED is the right choice for me and my body needs. I’ve heard this probiotic helps decrease bloating so much. I am also completely getting off ozempic after being on it for 3 years now.
