    Our verdict

    For IBS, hormonal skin, or post-antibiotic gut, Symprove is worth it. For general wellness, a food-first approach with fermented foods will get you most of the way.

    When Symprove is worth it\n- Diagnosed IBS or IBD in remission\n- After a course of antibiotics\n- Hormonal cystic acne linked to gut\n\n### When to save your money\n- No specific gut symptoms\n- If you already eat fermented foods daily\n- If cost is a barrier to consistency\n\n### Our verdict\nOne 12-week Symprove course, then reassess.
