/Anita/was: Re: Yeast die off ??? multi strain probiotic

March 23, 2006

Hi ,

I would go to a HFS or order from a place like vitacost.com where

you can get good prices, yes. However, there is still some concern

on my part that you get what you pay for. Also, my son needs to

take about 200 billion CFU's a day (more during yeast protocol).

This would mean over 40 caps of some of the cheapie brands. Not

something that's going to happen.

Probiotics are one of the more expensive supps, yes, and I would try

less expensive brands at the beginning. But, if you don't get the

results you need, look elsewhere.

Probiotics should list on the back the strains of bacteria. Lots of

brands will have four strains. I prefer 8 strains since our gut

has hundreds of kinds of bacteria (before the antibiotics get at

them, that is).

get a multi-strain probiotic - I will look at the healthfood store

today. I also am wondering about a more budget friendly one

though.... I just spent about $150 buying all the necessary

supplements/enzymes last week and I really did not want to spend

more on this stuff this month. Don't want to sound cheap or

anything, but we have limitations, and someone else mentioned that

over the counter probiotics / the cheapies that are not even

refrigerated may work just as well ( said this I think, but

again they did not really have bad yeast issues).

multistrain, I would look on the bottle for more than one whatever

bacillus, right?
