Supplement that costs pennies per day leaves tummy 'less bloated' and old trousers fit

Supplement that costs pennies per day leaves tummy 'less bloated' and old trousers fit

In recent years, gut health has become somewhat of a buzzword for those seeking to enhance their overall wellbeing. Gut health influences a broad range of bodily functions and overall well-being, including digestion, immune function and mental health, but managing it can be challenging through diet alone and that's where complements come in.
One product aiming to help users combat bloating, irregular bowel movements and fatigue is Gut Works, a daily supplement by Dr Vegan that boasts a high-strength formula. And it costs less than 50p per day.
The low cost is due to the current offer where shoppers can save 50% off their first order with the brand using a special code. Typically priced at £28.99, using the code GUT50 at the checkout reduces the price to £14.50, which equates to 48p a day.
The code is only available to new customers, and while it can't be used in conjunction with other discounts, it does take a substantial amount off the RRP. The award-winning supplement combines Psyllium Husk with six scientifically studied strains of live cultures, also known as 'probiotics', and prebiotics.
With 50 billion CFU (colony forming units) packed into a single daily capsule, the supplement provides a significant bacterial boost to the digestive system. A healthy gut and bowels is crucial for daily comfort and tackling symptoms of IBS including bloating, constipation, diarrhoea, excessive wind and gas, fatigue, reflux, poor sleep, and more.
Gut Works, in a small, daily delayed-release capsule, is designed to rebalance and replenish the gut microbiome with active bacteria, reports the Mirror.
Other supplement brands offer varying formulations and bacterial strains, some focusing more on specific symptoms, and may come with a higher price tag. For some individuals, swallowing capsules isn't appealing, hence many celebrities like Frankie Bridge and Georgia Toffolo are opting for Symprove, a gut health supplement in liquid form.
Priced at £22.99 for 500ml, it's available in a variety of flavours such as Pineapple or Strawberry and Raspberry.
Alternatively, LookFantastic offers MyProtein's Gut Gummies, now discounted by 48%, down to £16.99. These chewable tablets provide a handy way to support digestive health, boasting one billion live cultures and 40mg of vitamin C.
Regarding Dr Vegan's Gut Works, customer feedback has been largely positive, with a 4.3-star rating based on over 300 reviews. Users have reported a range of benefits, from reduced IBS symptoms and bloating to weight loss and enhanced mood.
One customer, Joanne, shared: "IBS symptoms and life changed forever. I was advised by my gastroenterologist to look at this kind of product and he said if I took it every day without fail my symptoms would improve. I saw this product and decided to give it a go.
"He was right! I could not visit friends for dinner, had trouble on holiday and my social life was controlled by my stomach... not any more. Life changing."
Conal, added: "Excellent product. My stomach feels less bloated and with a change of eating habits I have started to lose weight. I will continue to take Gut Works from now on."
And he's not the only one to have lost weight, with Sheila commenting: "I'm very impressed. My bloating has stopped/disappeared, and I've lost 4lb.
"Gut works is quite simply magic," wrote another. "I had been suffering with IBS and tummy issues for years. Gut Works has really changed my life.
"I didn't think anything could help me, but Gut Works has. Thank you Dr Vegan." However, some customers noted that the product didn't work for them. It's crucial to remember that gut health is individual, and what works wonders for one person may have limited effects on another.
One stated: "Didn't work for me. Easy tablet to swallow though and I liked that it was once a day. And, I've just received a lovely note from the company and they have refunded me."
Another added: "Used this for 30 days. I'm not sure I noticed much change in my digestion or bloating. I was disappointed."
But generally customers have been impressed. Another five star review stated: "Since taking gut works my tummy is so much better. Flatter and my trousers fit. I really haven't changed my diet, so it's all down to gut works." Customers can try the Gut Work s supplements here and use the code GUT50 for 50% off their first order with Dr Vegan.

Braun epilator that makes 'skin smooth in no time' is cut by 57%

Users say there's 'no more fuss with waxing or shaving' when using the device Hair removal can seem like an endless task, so it's no surprise there are a lot of products on the market that claim to help make it easier, but a lot of them come with a pretty hefty price tag. Until now, as one retailer adds discounts on devices in time for summer. Amazon has cut the price of the Braun Silk-épil 9 Flex SkinSpa Epilator down to £159.99, a massive 57% saving from its usual price of £369.99. The product features a 360-degree flexible head, along with a mini shaver, exfoliation brush, massage pad, and can be used both wet and dry. It's said to be able to cut hairs as short as 0.5mm, and that one use will achieve 'an entire month of smooth skin.' The head contains 40 tiny tweezers, and it can run for up to 50 minutes on one charge. It also has two modes - gentle and power. If you're looking for an alternative, Boots has the Panasonic ES-EY90 five-in-one full body epilator kit for £134.99 - £65 down from its usual price of £199.99. It comes with a range of attachments, including a main epilation head with 'double-disc technology ', featuring 60 tweezers, able to cut hairs as short as 0.5mm. It can be used wet or dry and also includes a bikini comb, gentle cap, sonic scrub brush, shaver head, pop-up trimmer, and foot care head. It also features a pressure centre and can run for up to 50 minutes on one charge. If the idea of epilating doesn't appeal, LOOKFANTASTIC has a Silk'n 7 Light-Based Hair Removal Device for £349.30 - down 30 per cent from its usual price of £499. This can be used for the face and body, and includes three attachments, as well as a separate razor and a charging cable. It works by using light to open the pores and remove hairs at the root. Going back to the Braun epilator, it has a 4.7 out of five rating on Amazon. "It works better if you don't press too much on your skin, just gently and not too fast and your skin will be smooth in no time," said one customer. "I absolutely love it and I'm so glad I got it for myself. No more fuss with the waxing or shaving and red spots." Another said: "I love the way the head moves to your body as it gives you a much smoother finish. "Epilators do hurt, however, if you're used to using an epilator ,I think you will find this a lot more comfortable. I also found the smart sensor helpful too." Another users branded it "game-changing". However, some thought the effectiveness did not match its price: "It's uncomfortable to use and stings the legs for the rest of the day. Doesn't last one month, as after three days I had to shave my legs again. "Comes with a bikini line shaver. I cannot justify the price for this product as £370 is extortionate for a product I can only describe as being a value of at most £100."

Paula Radcliffe's terrifying blackouts that left her wheezing for breath as teen

British running champion Paula Radcliffe has opened up about the health struggles that nearly derailed her career as she backs a new campaign for better air quality Paula Radcliffe knows better than most what it's like to struggle to breathe. The 51-year-old British marathon runner was diagnosed with exercise-induced asthma at the age of 14, after blacking out several times during her training sessions. ‌ It could have derailed her running career before it had even started, but the athlete was luckily able to control her debilitating condition with the help of inhalers. ‌ But even now, Paula will suffer the effects of toxic air when she travels to cities with poor air quality - like Beijing in China, or New York City. "I can tell if the air quality is bad," she tells the Mirror from her home in Monaco. "I get headaches and nausea, and I feel out of breath." ‌ It's why she's backing a campaign by Health Equals to raise awareness of poor air quality in the UK. Research has found nearly 12 million children are risking their long-term health by going to school in areas with toxic air - and more than 25,000 schools are situated in areas that exceed World Health Organization (WHO) air quality guidelines. Children from minority ethnic backgrounds are more at risk due to where they live, and air pollution is now the second leading risk factor for death in children aged under five, according to the Royal College of Paediatrics and Child Health. ‌ Pollution can cause asthma and lung conditions, as well as increase the risk of heart disease and stroke. Children who are exposed to high levels of pollutants can even have their life expectancy cut short - with toxic air among the issues that contribute to a shocking 16-year gap in life expectancy across the UK. Paula, who has daughter Isla and son Raphael with her husband Gary Lough, says the stats left her reeling. 'As somebody who spends a lot of time encouraging kids to get healthy, to get outside, to be physically active, it really is a punch in the stomach to think I might be encouraging them to get out in air that isn't even healthy,' she says. ‌ 'My daughters and I can't even breathe inside our own home' Mum-of-two Angela Fonso moved her family into their new home in Southall, west London, in 2017, but within weeks they had all developed health problems. A foul smell - "like a petrol station multiplied many times' - oozed through what should have been their safe space, even with all the windows shut. ‌ Angela traced it back to a former gasworks site that was being redeveloped after a neighbour mentioned they could be inhaling carcinogens. She developed persistent wheezing, while her eldest daughter, now 17, had to be issued an inhaler after becoming asthmatic and getting a persistent cough. ‌ Angela set up the action group Clean Air for Southall and Hayes (CASH) in 2018 to raise awareness of the problems of toxic air. She is haunted by the story of nine-year-old Ella Adoo-Kissi-Debrah, who in 2013 became the first person in the UK to have air pollution listed as a cause of death, after she was exposed to lethal levels near her London home. Angela's youngest daughter Karen, now 16, says the toxic air has affected her for as long as she can remember - and has even stopped her having a normal childhood. "When I was in primary school the air pollution was so bad, it stopped me from going to the local park,' she says. 'Even today, I don't want to spend time hanging out with my friends in my home town because the air pollution makes me feel sick.'
