Abstract in brief

This study tested the effects of a probiotic called VSL 3 on people with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) who experience bloating, by comparing it to a placebo in a controlled, double-blind setup.
The results showed that VSL 3 helped reduce flatulence (gas) over the treatment period and during the first 4 weeks, but it did not significantly improve overall bloating or abdominal pain, and it also slowed down colonic transit.
Overall, VSL 3 decreased gas but didn’t improve other symptoms of IBS, and it caused the colon to move slower without affecting bowel habits.]
