Guest guest Posted February 4, 2004 Report Share Posted February 4, 2004 We used acidophilus for nearly one year and saw no improvement from using it at all. We tried Pearls and saw a huge difference the very next day. In fact, it was once of the best supplements we have tried. I tracked down what I believe to be the reason why we saw such a dramatic improvement so quickly. My son has very high levels of ammonia and the bacteria in Pearls can help to decrease this problem. When we increased the amount of pearls, we saw another improvement. We are now rotating Pearls with other probiotics.

Is there any data that shows if one is better than the other? Does one work better with Houston enzymes than others? Also, how long should a person with SID take probiotics? >> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted February 5, 2004 Report Share Posted February 5, 2004 We still use Kirkman Acidophilus and also the Therbiotic detox. But because we always wait about 2 weeks before adding something new, we know that the Pearls were the only thing that gave a visable improvement.
