Should I Take Supplements Daily For IBS?
Question: Hi,
I am taking supplements for IBS and Chronicle Prostatitis.
I take for IBS: L-Glutamine, Probiotics and Omega 3.
For Chronic Prostatitis :Zinc and Pygeum.
I would like to ask if I can take these supplements daily without stopping or should I take a break period and take a scheduled rotation?
If I should take an on / off rotation schedule, could you please tell me what the rotation should be?
These supplements really work for my issues.
Thank you.
