Not worth it for me
Even though the price was exorbitant, I wanted to try this Metabolic Daily. My gut is pretty good, I think, as I have a decent diet and eat a lot of fiber, much more than most people, probably 50 grams daily plus. I am also very regular. I don't take probiotics unless I am sick or have to go on antibiotics, which is rare. I was hoping to cut down on cravings (even though they weren't bad) and just improve whatever I could. I am also a normal weight, but would still love to be 5 pounds less, which seems hard to do. One month in, I did not notice any change regarding my poops, but I did notice an increase in "food noise," as they call it. I seemed to be craving snacks more often, and with a vengeance. Although, I have not gained weight, I hate that I cannot turn off the snacking thing! Their advertising and marketing is pretty huge with Pendulum, so I definitely know this always jacks up the price on a product. If you are looking to lose weight, this is not the product for you. If you eat enough fiber in your diet, you most likely do not need probiotics. This just made things worse for me. Not worth it!

Hi there, Thank you for sharing your experience with Metabolic Daily. We’re sorry to hear that you haven’t seen the benefits you were hoping for and that you’ve actually noticed an increase in cravings since starting the product. We understand how frustrating that must be and how important it is to see results with the products you invest in. Everyone’s microbiome is unique, so experiences and timelines can vary quite a bit. Some people notice changes within a few weeks, while for others it can take 6–8 weeks or more of consistent use to notice meaningful results. Some of the ways probiotics support gut and metabolic health may also not result in immediately noticeable changes. That said, we take your experience seriously and would like to learn more about what you’ve noticed. A member of our Care Team will be reaching out soon to connect with you directly and see how we can help. With care, Pendulum Care Team
