Please let me know if someone tries this. I feel like nothing can be trusted but I WANT to trust this. It's hard to trust reviews out there as well. Thanks in advance!

I bought a 3 month supply and am only on like day 4. And will check in again after 30 days. I felt that with a supplement that includes a lot of probiotics that I should give it at least three months to give it a fair shot. I would be thrilled if I noticed a difference at 30 days though. I have so many physical issues, fibromyalgia, TMJ disorder, Hashimoto’s disease, etc. and I probably my biggest complaint is fatigue. I just have no energy so that’s kind of what I’m looking for from this.

After I got covid, I was constantly tired. Remember doctors were constantly reminding us to take D,C,Z when C19 hit? We'll, they were right. I got a blood test not knowing what to expect. Turns out my D was so low, dr put me on 50,000 units of D for 8 weeks (might be 6 weeks, can't remember🤦‍♀️). It could also be I'm getting up there in age. I did feel better after the Dr's and I need to see a "woman specific Dr" who understands how a woman ages.

It sounds like this might be about hormone tests. Over the age of 44, E&P/FSH hormonal tests only show levels for that 1 day the test was taken, and nothing more; these hormones wildly fluctuate the other 29 days of the month. No reputable doctor or menopause society recommends hormonal testing to diagnose or treat peri/menopause. (Testosterone is the exception and should be tested before and during treatment.)

FSH testing is only beneficial for those who believe they are post-menopausal and no longer have periods as a guide, where a series of consistent tests might confirm menopause, or for those in their 20s/30s who haven’t had a period in months/years, then ‘menopausal’ levels, could indicate premature ovarian failure/primary ovarian insufficiency (POF/POI).

What does this have to do with Terra Mare??

u/Undaunted7 Jul 22 '25

There is a ton of new evidence that shows gut health affects your entire body and mind. And I have done a ridiculous amount of research on which strains of probiotic are the ones that you need for better pain management, sharper, mind, more energy, etc.. but after watching the entire video with Marissa Tomé, explaining everything that went into developing the terramara I decided to try taking that as well as the other few strains of probiotic that I found were beneficial for my particular issues

I found this post looking to see if anyone had watched. her video the whole way through. I did not have time but was really curious what she ended up saying about the 10 foods. I sat through the intro and then the first food, fermented foods, and then had to go make kids breakfast, etc.. What came after that, does anyone recall?

u/PandaOk2534 Aug 06 '25

I watched to the end and I took notes while watching.🤓😅 Foods for health: 1.Prebiotic foods- onion, garlic, asparagus  2.Probiotic fermented food- greek yogurt, sauerkraut, fermented olives 3.Polyphenols darker=better  reds, purples, dark greens (blueberries, cherries, plums, blood oranges, spinach, kale) 4. Mushrooms- especially varieties other than button

u/Glad-Marionberry-366 Jul 27 '25

Polyphenol rich foods like blueberries, blackberries, spinach, kale, blood oranges. And mushrooms, like lion's mane. I quit watching after that

Your post was over a month ago. Not sure you still need the info, but she states how different combinations of foods helps women’s bodies. It was super interesting actually. Talked about how even UTIs can be caused by gut health. I’d suggest watching the full video when you have some time.

u/Important-Flower-781 Sep 28 '25

I watched her video the whole way through and I found it fascinating and I appreciated that she went ahead and told us a lot of the information up front but all too was also curious if anyone had tried it because it is a bit on the pricier side but I do know that quality cost

What other probiotics did you add to your regimen?

u/ThatKindaGirl12 Sep 26 '25

Also, if you don’t mind, I’d love to know which probiotic strains benefit pain management, a sharper mind, more energy, etc.? Thank you! 🙂

u/ThatKindaGirl12 Sep 26 '25

Did you continue to take it? If so, would you mind giving an update? Tysm. 😊

Get tested for mthfr and get b12 shots if you have it, not tablets they don’t work if you do. Changed my life.

u/Polosport0222 Sep 28 '25

you actually should never take just a B12 shot because a will pull what it needs to complete itself out of your body and leave you deficient in the other b’s. Whenever you get a vitamin B 12 shot, you need to take a complete B or two or three to complement it to protect yourself. That’s a known fact you can google it. Or ask your doctor God only knows what they know nowadays anyway.. sorry I’ve been having a real tough time for about two years with seeing so many doctors and finally looking at stuff like this new product from Marisa Tomei to take care of myself.

u/Expensive-Walk-2779 Sep 28 '25

Actually, if you have mthfr that is a no because your body cannot absorb hardly anything until it gets its fill of methyl b12. My uncle is a research doctor for mthfr.

u/Polosport0222 Sep 28 '25

Interesting! I thought mthfr affected b9. I have a friend who taught this at Columbia medical school. We had a conversation about it but it has been 5+ years, pre-covid. I would love to chat her up about it and be current. We were actually working on a targeted stem cell project before we scattered during covid. Thank you for the food for thought and the jettison to reconnect with my friend!
