Probiotics..Which Ones and How Much???

[A50#]

My doctor told me about them, said I should use them
to resolve some issues I was having. I must admit, I
was skeptical but decided I had nothing to lose.

Much to my surprise they worked. And when I told her
as much here a few months ago, she just smiled.

I have used the ones that must be kept refrigerated, some
that don’t, different brands . . . they all seem to do the
trick. Can’t recommend a particular brand as with all my
supplements, I switch mfg.’s from time to time, don't get
too hung up on any one, they are all pretty much the same.
And dosing is one a day, regardless.

Hope this helps . . .

From what I've learned over the last week or so its almost
a must that these be kept cold.

This may sound dumb, but do you or have you started chewing lots of sugar free gum? Its a major laxative, and I had problems till' I figured out that was it. Im sure it isnt, but thought I'd ask

I do chew alot of gum. I'm addicted to those 'teeth whitener' gums. They keep my teeth clean and white and my breath nice for the ladies I will drop the gum today and see if that helps.

Here it is.....

Thanks for that. Good info.

Are you using T3?


It speeds up bowel activity.

Nope, no T3 or anything else unusual or new that I want taking
prior to being sick.

Product I recommend - Innate Response Flora 20/14. You need a physician code to order it, they don't want it in the hands of people/distributors who won't handle it right. If you decide to order, just email me and I will give you a physician code ok..

I would definitely be interested in trying this. Please send me the details
via email or pm, whatever you prefer. Thank you!

If you like the simplicity/convenience of pills, then the above advice is great...

One thought though- Kefir and Kim Chi... you get high protein and moderate carbs from the kefir (get the low fat, no sugar kind, Trader Joe's brand is EXCELLENT and contains inulin <see's MD1's post mentioned above>) and the KimChi also has numerous benefits besides the beneficial bacteria (natural anti-estrogens, etc).

Those are some things that I know very little about but I'm excited to
learn about them and try it out for sure.

90% of the probiotics on the market are useless.

Thats been the overall census of what I have discovered too Emeric.

whats your suggestion?

Go with the Innate flora 20-14 or Klaire`s probiotic.

Jarro-Dophilus EPS from Jarrow Formulas is the #1 selling probiotic in the industry. Manufactured by Institut Rosell in Canada. They produce the most viable probiotic strains IMO

Not trying to be argumentative, just trying to understand something here.



Well . . . then what happens to when you ingest them, and they assume your core
temperature, which is clearly not refrigerated (unless you are dead . . .).

Do they die? Tough to verify one way or another I expect.

Next question is: what is the % that will make it in to the intestines?

I truly cant answer that question. Just from the info I gathered in just around a week it appears to me that these things must be kept cold to make them remain live cultures. I really dont know.
Maybe thats why some of them have you start with one and add a tab/ cap every day until your taking one at each meal? Maybe once ingested they have a short life?

Raw milk will help to increase Bifidobacterium in the intestine.

How do I even deterime which strains that I need? I mean is it better to go with one specific strain or a blend of various ones? Kinda confusing.

It is very confusing.

The number of viable bacteria resinding in the human large intestine is more than one trillion per gram of intestinal contents,comprising more than 100 species.

I'm doing a stool study tomorrow. Guess this will check for different bacterias and things like CDIF. Ive never crapped in vials and then delivered them fresh so that should be fun. I just hope the chic working the counter at the lab that day is hot

Suppository?

Not that I would want to do take them this way, but I remember one thought being that taking one of these supplements rectally would actually be the best route by ensuring the highest concentration/delivery of said bacteria.

I ordered direct from Innate today. I got a bottle of Flora 200/14 7 day extensive/intensive therapy and some of the Flora 20/14. I'm really looking forward to trying these. Interestingly enough, I found some other places onling carrying the 'Innate' products a little bit cheaper but when I called Innate direct they said they had no other authorized internet resellers. The only places authorized are physicians and practitoners direct sales. Long story short, if anyone wants to try these getting them... direct through Innate is the best way to ensure your getting a quality prodcut. Big thanks to mountaindog1 and Emeric for leading me down the right path with these particular probiotics.
