Guest guest Posted March 14, 1999 Report Share Posted March 14, 1999 The fridgerated one's are stronger, also more costly, if you can afford them then they are the better ones. The roomtemp ones are usually a different set of strains that's more heat resistant. I have tried both, while the cold ones worked better, I couldn't afford to keep taking them so I went to the cheeper ones. Sence I'm alergic to milk I couldn't make yogert and keep a fresh batch going either.... darn.... Plus, get some B-5 (Pantothenic acid) to go with it. It dose nice things together and B-5 is cheap too. K.

It is a bacteria, and refridgeration slows the life processes until you get it. Potency is measured in how many organisms were alive at the factory when bottled. > Is the refrigerated > product more effective?

One would think so. people who don't refridgerator are fooling themselves. > Also any comments on Solaray Multidophilus? It is my favorite brand. It is the best bang for the buck I have ever encountered, and seems more effctive than many I have tried. Acidophilus is the primary bacteria for the small intesting & bifidus is the priary bacteria for the large intestine. I won't but products without the bifidus, and would use it if I had to choose between them. I have just started on a digestive enzyme regime and one thing pointed out to me by the naturopathic teaching doctor with whom I spoke (many of her " students " are MD's. Wouldn't you like a doctor with an open mind?) says our probiotic formula MUST contain l. plantarum. jim lambert -- jim@... http://www.entrance.to/madscience http://www.entrance.to/poetry ICQ:16531148 amicus certus in re incerta Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or, acidophilus and associated bacterias can be bred wit cabage juice as well. They aren't a milk bacteria, per se. I don't have a recipe handy, but I remember recipes for fermenting cabage juice in Dr. Jensen's colon cleansing book, found in many health food stores. Try a search on fermenting cabbage. jim -- jim@... http://www.entrance.to/madscience http://www.entrance.to/poetry ICQ:16531148 amicus certus in re incerta Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 2, 1999 Report Share Posted April 2, 1999 Did you try the yogurt? Usually people allergic to milk are not to yogurt.

Guest guest Posted August 26, 2009 Report Share Posted August 26, 2009 I've seen aywhere from 1 to 50 billion. Does anyone have a recommendation on a product and/or where to purchase? The one that was 50 billion at the time of expiry was quite expensive. Is a 3 billion adequate? Thanks, Dana Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
