Guest guest Posted January 8, 2009 Report Share Posted January 8, 2009 Although you may not be able to overdose on them, they do affect the nervous system which controls the body..................just like anything, given in large amounts has to affect you in some way? Probiotics' side effects, if they occur, tend to be mild and digestive (such as gas or bloating). More serious effects have been seen in some people. Probiotics might theoretically cause infections that need to be treated with antibiotics, especially in people with underlying health conditions. They could also cause unhealthy metabolic activities, too much stimulation of the immune system, or gene transfer (insertion of genetic material into a cell). http://www.medicinenet.com/probiotics/page4.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
