Re: probiotics reccomendation

Kirkmans probiotics are all casein free. We've used Pro Bio Defense,

Pro Bio Gold, and Super Pro Bio with no problems.

We use American Health banana wafers which we buy at Whole Foods. They also

make blueberry ones. We haven't tried those.

You could try other antifungals instead. I'm a fan of Thorne's SF722,

which is a castor oil derivative, also caprylic acid works well for

some people.

Can you tell me how you would choose between these?

Castor oil derived might just work! At least I have no knowledge that

he for sure reacts to it. Caprylic acid I just looked up on

Wikipedia - " an oily liquid with a slightly unpleasant rancid taste. "

Yum.

Can you tell me how you dose these? Also GSE, can anyone tell me how

to use it? I picked up a bottle today and realized I have no idea how

to administer the stuff.

Thanks for the help.

Pro Bio Gold is a multi-strain probiotic with I think about 20-30

billion CFU's per capsule. It's been around a long time and a lot of

people have found it helpful. Pro Bio Defense is a similar product

with some Saccharomyces Boulardii in it too. S. Boulardii is a non-

colonizing yeast that is very effective against candida. Super Pro

Bio is another multi-strain probiotic but the CFU's are a lot higher -

75 billion. A pretty hefty number.

There are a lot of other good probiotics out there, but I know that

all of Kirkman's will be casein free.

take care

How about acerola powder (I believe acerola is a kind of cherry, not

sure) or rosehips? These are both very rich in vitamin C. Now Foods

has an acerola powder.

Hi

I was reading a book in nutrition and found out that the big red sweet

pepper and its big green pepper has 4 times more vitamin C than citrus

fruits,Does your child tolerate them.

Well, it was a GREAT idea. Acerola is one of the exotic fruits I was

talking about. I looked up the Now Foods acerola and it contains

maltodextrin, a corn derivative, and there are few things I can give

him that he reacts to more strongly than corn.

I don't know if you can get rosehips by itself, it is in the citrus

based C I ordered. I'll look around for that.

Thanks, Rene.

Well, it's worth a try - not a food he much cares for, but I'll add

it to the High C list. Here is the top of my list, again from our

friends at Wikipedia.

Goat Plum (which I believe is also called Kakudu) 3150

mg/100grams of fruit

Camu Camu 2800mg/100gm

Wolfberry 2500mg/100gm

Rose hip 2000

Acerola 1600

Amla 720

Seabuckthorn 600

Jujube 500 (aren't those movie theater candies?)

But where do you get these things??

Oh, shoot! I forgot about the maltodextrin. Well, how about this

one? http://www.drrons.com/pure-radiance-c.htm

*I did read that acerola may not work for people allergic to latex.

Another alternative from the other end of the spectrum might be going

with ascorbyl palmitate, which is a completely synthetic, fat-soluble

C.

http://www.lef.org/newshop/items/item00083.html

I don't have any experience with this form of C at all, but you

could look in the archives (onibasu) and see if there are any good

reports. LEF is a good supplement brand.
