BLIS K12 Oral Probiotic Benefits: How to Stop Cavities and Recurring Strep Infection

December 4, 2025
Benefits of BLIS K12

There are a few supplements that I will never go without. One of them saved us from a complete health spiral a few years ago. I was a Mother at the point of pulling my hair out. Both my children were experiencing recurring strep throat infections and dental cavities. I was spinning my wheels trying to understand why. It didn’t matter what I did. These infections and cavities kept coming. I knew I had to figure it out and  spent months trying different solutions, meeting with doctors and dentists. After desperately trying to find out why my otherwise healthy children were experiencing this, I was at the end of my rope. Until I discovered a very specific probiotic strain. In this post, I will be sharing all about BLIS K12 oral probiotic benefits. Read on to understand why this simple supplement has changed our family’s health trajectory for the better.

Yu Trim Fit for Weight loss: My Honest Review and Experience

November 11, 2025

Weight loss isn’t really a topic that I dabble in too often. It can be a bit taboo and I don’t often endorse a product for being the be all and end all as it pertains to weight loss. There is so much that goes into cutting weight and it isn’t as simple as many make it seem. Many weight loss supplements are unhealthy and their ingredients contain chemicals, fillers and occasionally dangerous stimulants. These often don’t work and leave your gut and health in a worse state than before.

Many of these targeted weight loss supplements are gimmicky and useless. But, every so often a product comes along that is a game changer. I started to see some buzz around a product called Trim Fit. I was convinced after seeing my own friends results. Then I saw the ingredients were natural and free from synthetic colorants and flavors. So, I decided to try Yu Trim Fit for Weight loss support for myself. Does it really work as well as people claim it does? I’ll get into my own personal results in depth below.
