They are intended to SEEDthe colon, like seeding a lawn. You don't seed your lawn everytime you mow it, or even every month.

Too much of any particular strainscreates an imbalance longterm with other metabolic effects.See my articles "yeast" for more on how to take probiotics.See our Links > Probiotics folder, for different products fordifferent purposes.Carol W.http://groups.yahoo.com/group/willis_protocols
