Re: which probiotic or acidophilus do you use?

[Guest guest]

Hi -

Dr G recommends single or very low strain probiotics,

and if recommending a specific brand, usually mentions

Kyo-Dophilus (contains Acidophilus & two others, is

freeze dried & doesn't require refrigeration, high

quality, no bad fillers). The kyo-dophilus only

contains strains natural to humans, which many others

contain a bunch of others. GNC used to carry it, but I

get mine from vitaminshoppe.com.

The reason he recommends low strains... many kids are

very reactive to other strains. For instance, it's

documented and published that some kids with PANDAS

can actually have their OCD exacerbated by

lactobacillus ... and I can attest to that because I

do too. Dr Goldberg says that in this case, less is

certainly more.

Oh-you wanted chewable ... I DO think Kyo-Dophillus

has a children's version that is chewable as well, but

I'm not positive ... but the vitaminshoppe does carry

one that you'll find. However, the Kyo-Dophillus are

very small capsules and mine have been swallowing them

easily since they were 2 & 4 yrs old.

Yes, we use Kyo-Dophilus also, and can attest that it is very good. Not good for

SCD diet however as it contains potatoes, not a problem for us, but maybe for

others. Also good for yeast, an enzyme called Candex, breaks down the yeast wall

so the good bacteria can get to it. Works fast in 1/2 a day but the down side is

it has to be given on an empty stomach.

Good luck,

gnc still carries it but it is about 3x as expensive

as getting it thru the internet source mentioned.

Thanks for all the replies. I had ordered the kid's chewable kyo-

dophilus, but I ordered the one that is a capsule today. It has 3

strains instead of 1.
