,

I haven't quite figured all of this out yet. Each

product I am interested in that have the possible

RIGHT probiotic has a maker who says it is the best

and unique. Plus I am not the greatest researcher and

figureouter of scientific information!! ;o)

At this point, I am interested in and convinced that

the following all have good stuff in them. I can't say

for sure what is the best. I am going to experiment

with all of them. Culturelle has done a lot already

for my constant yeast. I expect that whichever one I

decide to use I will have to use it forever. That is

better than being dependent upon trying to get

Diflucan, etc., from the doc which has been very hard

to do in the past. Whatever it is that makes me a

target for yeast overgrowth (I suspect all my food

allergies some of which I don't even know) will

probably be with me always.

Femdophilus, Probiflora, Culturelle

I guess the answer is I just don't know for sure as

these products are produced by different companies in

different countries, with different wording and I

haven't deciphered it yet.
