I bought the Progurt Chloride after several months of drinking the Progurt Probiotic Sachets because I still had problems with intestinal gas (I love the sachets!). Adding the Chloride has helped. It is super-salty. And here's an unexpected thing - yes, the bloating/gas I have had has diminished noticeably - but also, it makes me feel full and uninterested in food. I tend now to take it in the late afternoon, before dinner, and it has effortlessly made me easily able to eat less at dinnertime. It is a happy surprise, because I also need to lose some weight. So, bonus-!
