Maybe a little: This product is in the category of anecdotal endorsement. There are many reports from individuals who say they had good improvement in their digestive problems with this product. Some report no improvement. There is no scientific proof one way or the other. Theoretically, "improving" bowel flora can help improve bowel motility, improving constipation. Dietary fiber, fluids, exercise cost less:)
