48p-a-day supplement 'solved tummy issues' for shoppers but deal ends soon

Product Description
While other supplement brands offer various formulations and bacterial strains, focusing more on specific symptoms and potentially at a higher cost, some individuals find swallowing capsules off-putting. For those seeking a liquid alternative, celebrities like Frankie Bridge and Georgia Toffolo have endorsed Symprove, available in a variety of flavours, including Pineapple, Strawberry, and Raspberry.
Alternatively, LookFantastic has slashed the price of MyProtein's Gut Gummies by 48 percent, bringing them down to £16.99. These chewable tablets provide a convenient way to boost digestive health, packed with one billion live cultures and 40mg of vitamin C.
Meanwhile, customer reviews for Dr Vegan's Gut Works are mainly positive, boasting a 4.3-star rating based on over 300 reviews. Customers have reported a range of benefits, including alleviated IBS symptoms and bloating, as well as weight loss and improved mood.
One thrilled customer, who gave her name as Joanne, shared: "IBS symptoms and life changed forever. My gastroenterologist advised me to consider this type of product, stating that if I took it every day without fail, my symptoms would likely improve. I came across this product and decided to give it a try. 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."
Another buyer, Conal, added to the rave reviews: "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."
Sheila also shared encouraging results from her trial: "I'm very impressed. My bloating has stopped/disappeared, and I've lost 4lb."
A further satisfied customer branded the supplement as life-altering: "Gut Works is quite simply magic. 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."
However, not all feedback was entirely glowing, highlighting how individual gut health reactions can differ. Whilst some praised it as miraculous, others didn't experience the same level of transformation.
One user, however, had a different experience and saw no benefits: "Didn't work for me. It was easy to swallow, though, and I liked that it was taken once a day. I've just received a lovely note from the company though and they have refunded me."
Despite occasional negative reviews, overall customer sentiment remains overwhelmingly positive. Another delighted customer shared a five-star review, stating: "Since taking Gut Works, my tummy is so much better. Flatter and my trousers fit. I haven't changed my diet, so it's all down to Gut Work."
Those interested in trying the Gut Works supplements can buy them from their website, with the opportunity to use the promotional code GUT50 for a 50 percent discount on an initial order from Dr Vegan.

Warning to Brits after flesh-eating bacteria disease confirmed in holiday hotspot
At least eight people have died and 13 cases detected of the flesh-eating bacteria vibrio vulnificus. UK holidaymakers travelling to Florida this summer are being warned of a flesh-eating bacteria which has killed at least eight people, according to US media. It has been reported that Florida's Department of Health confirmed at least 13 cases of vibrio vulnificus. Eight cases are believed to be linked to exposed wounds, and officials are now warning that the infections can be "sporadic and unrelated to an outbreak." A vibrio vulnificus outbreak has also been reported in Louisiana, with 17 cases recorded so far this year. The alarming case numbers come after a year of high infection rates. According to The Jerusalem Post, 18 infections and 19 deaths were reported last year, which was the highest number recorded so far. Vibrio vulnificus is part of a group of vibrios called "halophilic", which normally lives in warm seawater as it requires salt to live. The Express reports that health officials have also linked recent cases to natural disasters, including Hurricane Helene last year, which hit Florida. According to reports, coastal waters pushed inland by the weather increase the risk of infection. According to the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the bacteria is found in saltwater and brackish water. Infection can lead to severe illness or even death within just a day or two. People with the infection can experience diarrhoea, stomach cramps, vomiting, nausea, fever and chills. Health officials in the US have urged people to cook seafood properly before eating it, wash their hands after handling raw seafood, and sanitise wounds to avoid infection.

However, those with weakened immune systems as well as those with health conditions such as cancer or liver problems, may be more susceptible to infection and are more likely to experience severe illness, according to health officials The Centres for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) explained that the bacteria can cause life-threatening infections in open wounds, saying: "Many people with Vibrio vulnificus infection require intensive care or limb amputations," the experts said. "About 1 in 5 people with this infection die, sometimes within a day or two of becoming ill." The Mail reports Basil Kennedy, of Bay St Louis, near New Orleans, died in the hospital on July 21, just days after contracting Vibrio vulnificus. The 77-year-old's family are now raising awareness as cases continue to rise. The grandfather of two, who was a long-time sailor, became infected after he suffered a cut on his leg on the trailer on a boat, which he launched into the Mississippi waters. Basil cleaned his wound with hydrogen peroxide and covered it with a plaster, but within three days, he was taken to the hospital. He tragically died of organ failure days later.

Second person dies after 'toxic broccoli' in sandwich as vegetable recalled
Tamara D'Acunto passed away after eating a panini she'd bought at a food truck. A woman has become the second death victim of a poisoning outbreak - after eating a sandwich that she bought from a food truck for her lunch. Tamara D'Acunto was rushed to hospital after eating the snack but was unable to recover from the poisoned panini, which contained the 'contaminated' vegetable. It comes after musician and artist Luigi Di Sarno suffered the same tragic fate. The 52-year-old bought a broccoli and sausage sandwich on the Diamante seafront in the province of Cosenza and later passed away. The Mirror reports Tara had also bought her lunch from a food truck in southwest Italy. Eight others were rushed to hospital, including members of Mr Di Sarno's family. Broccoli has been recalled across Italy following the outbreak and the food truck where the sandwiches were made has also been seized. It comes amid a growing botulism outbreak caused by the toxins produced by Clostridium botulinum bacteria. The country is on high alert after the Paola Public Prosecutor's Office demanding an 'immediate seizure of a commercial product'. A statement following the death of Mr Di Sarno was issued by the authorities last Thursday. The release, from Calabria Region's Department of Health and Welfare, read: "The emergency procedure established in these cases has been activated, which requires immediate notification to the Poison Control Center in Pavia." It stated is "the only national centre designated for the management of botulism" and added: "No region or hospital in the country is authorised to store the antivenom in their own facilities. "This serum, however, is exclusively available to the Ministry of Health, which holds it in designated secure locations and distributes it only through the Lombardy Poison Control Centre. "The first two vials, used for the first patients, were sent directly from the Military Pharmacy in Taranto. However, as the number of cases increased, additional supplies became necessary. "Yesterday, the Calabria Region, through Azienda Zero, provided a 118 aircraft that flew to the San Camillo Hospital in Rome, where the ministry had centralised additional vials of the antivenom to facilitate distribution."

Botulism is a serious, potentially fatal illness triggered by a neurotoxin produced by Clostridium botulinum. Although rare, only around 1,000 cases reported globally each year, it can lead to muscle paralysis, respiratory failure, and even death if untreated. Symptoms typically begin 12 to 72 hours after exposure and may include blurred vision, slurred speech, muscle weakness, and fatigue. Early intervention with antitoxin and supportive care like mechanical ventilation is critical. How to avoid botulism? 1. Be cautious with oils, herbs and low-acid food Botulism can thrive in low-acid environments like homemade oils infused with herbs or vegetables - especially when stored at room temperature. Always refrigerate such products and use them within four days. 2. Reject suspicious canned goods Never consume food from bulging, dented, or leaking cans and jars. Even items without obvious spoilage can hide invisible, deadly toxins. 3. Use proper pressure canning techniques If you make your own preserves, especially with low-acid foods like vegetables and meats, always use a pressure canner, not a boiling-water bath. Pressure canning reaches temperatures high enough to destroy botulinum spores. 4. Acidify when can canning tomatoes Tomatoes vary in acidity and may not always be safe. To ensure they're preserved safely, add bottled lemon juice or citric acid so the pH stays at or below 4.6. Serious Eats 5. Heat everything thoroughly Botulinum toxin can be destroyed by heating food to above 85C for at least five minutes. This is especially important for home-canned low-acid foods. 6. Refrigerate promptly and store safely Article continues below Never leave perishable food at room temperature for longer than two hours, or one hour in hot conditions (above 32C). Maintain refrigeration at 4C or below. Botulinum toxin cannot be seen, smelled, or tasted, and even the smallest amount can be deadly. If you have any doubt about the safety of a food item, don't sample it - discard it immediately.
