Health Things: The Good Belly

Ok. I don’t know if any of you have tried any probiotic products like yogurt or flavored drinks, but sometimes they don’t taste that ideal. Today when I was shopping at my main man Whole Foods I saw the mango flavored Good Belly drink and I couldn’t pass it up.

I tend to buy things based on trends and that doesn’t omit foods. If you think food trends don’t exist- you are wrong. Examples would be mini foods, cupcakes, comfort foods, pork belly etc. So since probiotics are hitting the health scene pretty hard I was drawn to that and the bold packaging. Straight into the cart.

My impulse buy may seem a little crazy, but I did make a good health choice. Probiotics are super good for you. They help with lactose intolerance, digestion, immune system, lower the pH in the intestines…so many more things. The great thing about Good Belly is that you get the benefits of probiotics with 20 billion live and active cultures in every serving along with other vitamins and minerals.

Aside from the benefits of Good Belly- it really does taste great. At least the mango does. The drink comes in five flavors: Mango, Cranberry Watermelon, Black Currant, Blueberry Acai, and Pomegrante Blueberry.

The website guarantees that you’ll feel better after drinking Good Belly for 12 days. They ask consumers to sign up for the 12 day challenge…you know what I’ll do it…fine. I’m not certain a couple glasses of white wine at dinner will help with the results, but we shall see. Check out the website if you are interested in taking the challenge too:
