Hi Addie,

According to Wikipedia, Bifidus is also known as Bifidum, or Bifido, or Bifidobacterium or Probiotic. On Elaine's website, if you search "Bifidus" and then "Bifidum", the same info' comes up, leading me to believe she felt the two are the same.

Elaine also wrote:

"I, personally, do not believe in using bifidus in a probiotic or in a yoghurt culture. The use of different strains of probiotics has been a subject of much discussion. I do not pretend to know the answers for most of them and have told the list that spending one year doing library research convinced me that there is more ambiguity than black and white answers".

If you want to read more of what Elaline says about Bifidus/Bifidum, go to:

They are, and they are SCD-illegal.
