The products:

Probiotic Kefir and Complete Prebiotics-

These products are great- a fermented milk probiotic and complementary powdered prebiotic. You do need both of these products as they work together:

Imagine your gut is a beautiful natural river ecosystem that has been damaged and depleted by chemicals. As a probiotic, Chuckling Goat Kefir puts the fish back into that river – but you also need to feed those fish to keep them alive- this is the prebiotic.

I mixed the two in a fruit smoothie each day and found this the most enjoyable way to take them. On the occasions where I just drank it on its own it wasn’t the most pleasant flavour-but it wasn’t that bad either. Just follow it up with a quick glass of water! 

Skincare-

The skincare range consists of solid bar cleansers and lotions which are tailored for the specific needs of your skin and are gentle enough for children and those with many skin conditions, for example eczema, psoriasis, dermatitis, rosacea, acne and allergies. These skin products are all recommended to use alongside the probiotic and prebiotic, nourishing the skin from within too.

Our Chuckling Goat review:

After a couple of weeks of drinking the prebiotic and probiotic daily I definitely felt more energetic. My skin did feel less sensitive too. I strongly advise gradually building your dose of these products as Chuckling Goat recommends. The skin products did desensitise my skin and my skin felt soft and looked more even. I really like the Chuckling Goat products and will definitely be continuing with them on a daily basis.
