Hi,

We use 3 different probiotics on a rotational basis, I also give about 3-4

days a week a capsule of Saccharomyces Boulardi for good measure:-)

separately (by a few hours) from the probiotic.

The three we use are:

VSL 3 The Living Shield

Ther-biotic complete by Klaire Labs

Vital 10 by Klaire Labs

When we first started each of those I gave about 1/10 of it on the first day

(2xday) and took 10 days or more(if I saw looser stool I stayed at the

current dose until it improved) to build up. I highly respect that approach

when it comes to introducing things to my child.I did not have issues with

anything if I took the time to introduce it that way.

Another measure we use is that I make my own Kombucha at home. It is a

fermented beverage that uses green and black tea and grows from a culture.

It is loaded with naturally occurring probiotics B group (1,2,3,6,12)

vitamins, folic acid etc.

I honestly attribute our final straw of bowel recovery to that. Over the

last few years I noticed that my daughter actually KNOWS what her system

needs and doesn't need by taste/intuition. I figured out this little psychic

tallent my daughter has by looking over her diet notes from 1.5 yr ago and

that was the time we have been on GFCF for 6-9 months, she starter refusing

ALL high oxalate glutein free foods. At that time I didn't even know what

oxalate's did and how one should watch for that on GFCF. She alone SAVED

herself a major oxalate problem. Now I don't ever force any food/supplement

on her unless I know she is just being difficult to test her limits.She

LOVES kombucha and asks for it by name. My husband and I started drinking it

and he was able to lose some excess weight (nothing dramatic but noticeable)

and improve his ADD, I got more energy out of it, both of us improved our

digestive function. We are at the point that I have 4 gallons of it brewing

at our house with one gallon coming due every 2 days or so (full

fermentation cycle is about 7 days). I do have to warn you it is a higher

oxalate beverage so I would be very slow and watchful introducing it if you

have an issue with oxalates.
