Guest guest Posted August 5, 2011 Report Share Posted August 5, 2011 From what i understand,since I take my probiotics religiously. Probiotics are the good bacteria found in our gut and the name of this good bacteria happens to be Acidophilus. Now Prebiotics I am not too familiar with, all I know is that you get them from certain fruits and veggies and once in your stomach then they turn into the good bacteria as they grow in your stomach.

Guest guest Posted August 5, 2011 Report Share Posted August 5, 2011 Thanks Don. I appreciate you sharing with me what you know. I have heard that before and I believe it to be true. A few of my friends take probiotics when and if they take an antibiotic because they restore the flora of the intestine which the antibiotic kills. I was in the health food store the other day and found there is a whole spectrum of probiotics. The predominant brand they had was Ultimate Flora probiotics ranging from 15 billion to 80 billion. The list of active ingredients showed about ten different probiotics listed alphabetically. The first one was Acidophilus. I was hoping you might know about each of them listed. It may not be so important. What is more important is, What are the benefits of probiotics? Don, why do you take them so regularly. Are you on medicine that kills your flora? Does anyone know about the Ultimate Flora Brand? Or Does anyone know a brand they can recommend and why is that brand better?

Guest guest Posted August 5, 2011 Report Share Posted August 5, 2011 I just take them, you can never have enough good bacteria in your system. If you're on ARV's it is critical you take them because ARV's kill your good bacteria along with the bad bacteria. When I was on Atripla I had to see a nutritionist and she told me the benefits and importance of probiotics taken in conjunction with ARV's. The reason people get all these side effects is for that reason, because good bacteria is killed. Now that I have been ARV free for 3 years I still take the probiotics. Certain foods we eat and several preservatives in foods can also harm the good bacteria. From: Doug <dougman1@...> Subject: Re: Can anyone tell me about these products cures for AIDS Date: Friday, August 5, 2011, 3:16 PM The first one should be Acidophilus.

Guest guest Posted August 6, 2011 Report Share Posted August 6, 2011 Don I must agree about this. The preservatives in our food are very harmful. The thinking used to be that Some foods like cold cuts, bacon, and all processed food has more preservatives than fresh food. That is no longer true. All of our meat is loaded with hormones and antibiotics that help the animal grow faster and give a higher yield. Nothing today is natural.

Guest guest Posted August 6, 2011 Report Share Posted August 6, 2011 Don, Does the brand of probiotics matter? Do yours have to be refrigerated? These Ultimate Flora ones had to be refrigerated and they were pills, not liquid. What do you think?

Guest guest Posted August 6, 2011 Report Share Posted August 6, 2011 I prefer the liquid type and yes you have to refrigerate.

Guest guest Posted August 6, 2011 Report Share Posted August 6, 2011 Why do you like the liquid type? What do you think of the different brands?

Guest guest Posted August 6, 2011 Report Share Posted August 6, 2011 I take what ever brand really, brands don't make a difference for me. I do my energy reading before I buy a product. But I probiotics are supposed to be live cultures of good bacteria, I don't see good bacteria thriving any where else other than in the liquid form that you refrigerated.

Guest guest Posted August 6, 2011 Report Share Posted August 6, 2011 Yogurt (such as Activa) is a very good source of probiotics as well.  I take a daily probiotic supplement as well.  Once I've taken my daily dose, I literally feel healthier once a few hours have passed.

Guest guest Posted August 6, 2011 Report Share Posted August 6, 2011 Doug, mine didn't have to be frozen.  The instructions said to just keep in a " cool " place.  They weren't in a frigerator when I bought them, lol ... they were just sitting on a shelf in a cool store so I figured they could sit on a shelf in a cool cabinet in my kitchen.  They should be fine.

Guest guest Posted August 7, 2011 Report Share Posted August 7, 2011 Thanks Don for your advice and opinions. I don't know much about these things, but I have to learn. From what I am hearing probiotics are overwhelmingly a good thing.

Guest guest Posted August 7, 2011 Report Share Posted August 7, 2011 yes especially if you're on medications. When I was on meds I had to see a nutritionist and she told me the importance of these for everybody not just people who are HIV+. But any ARV or antibiotic will also kill the good bacteria.
