Between Probiotics and Prebiotics...

[Guest guest]

One thing I totally agree with Duncan is about Prebiotic Intake. If you allow me

tho chose between probitics and prebiotics, I will go for the prebiotics. The

reason is there isn't enough data to support that probiotics can colonize the

intestines permanently. Prebiotics are going to feed those colonies which are

present and increase the bifidobacteria numbers. Bifidos are your main freindly

flora. But, in the case that probiotics were my priority, I will go for those

strains which may have more chance to implant and bring benefits, at least,

temporary. LGG, L. Reuteri, L. plantarum V-299. This last one became available

in capsules recently.
