Natren probiotics

[Guest guest]

Hi,

Has anyone heard of this company (Natren) and their products? Does

anyone take their probiotics? I'm still trying to find a good

probiotic to give my son. I appreciate the couple of suggestions

I've received. Does anyone else has info they can give me on the

probiotic you give your child? I'm trying to make an informed

choice :-).

Thanks,

Kathy

Kathy,

I think the best Probiotics are:

CulturelleGG www.culturelle.com <http://www.culturelle.com/>

and

Kirkman’s ProBioGold and Saccramyces Boulardii.

Mark, There are probiotic products that can be obtained right

from the supermarket, here is a copy of a letter I received after

an inquiry from a company that distributes organic dairy products.

Best, Carlton

>>> Has anyone heard of this company (Natren) and their products?

Yep. These are fine. I use the Culturelle and the Florajen 3 (from

my pharmacist). There are lots of good brands around. The milk/kefir

stuff wrote about also works well for probiotic source.

, do you know if it is okay to bake with the kefir/cheeses/milk

or does that kill the probiotics? I am guessing it does but maybe

there is a temperature limit.

, Yes, I am sorry to tell you, that it will probably destroy

the beneficial bacteria if heated, but I don't know how hot,

I have just been baking the dish, and then just grading the cheese

on top. Best, Carlton

Hi Caroline - did you do that hoovering yet?

Being an oldtimer, one thing I will say is, success with probiotics is a very individual thing. Always good to experiment and try new stuff, revisit it later if not suiting straight away, stick with something that seems to be helping and add others to the mix to test out, Sometimes combos of products work better than one alone. Many rotate but I'm not organised enough to do that in any meaningful way - just kinda what takes my fancy and whether I need it to be empty stomach or not (per product instructions)

Re Natren - have only heard great things about the Healthy Trinity but haven;t tried them as way outta my price range.

We have done CP1 from www.customprobiotics.com but purchased through

www.gutdoctor.co.uk for some time - I like them a lot

(Going to look into buying statesiide and getting Cally to send them as much chepaer from US)

BioKult we always have in hand, use them on my NT boys too

Culturelle gives Sam consitpation, quite a novelty in a kid who had liquid poops for years prior to HNI enzymes, but not one I want to repeat!

Probiogold did diddly squat - very high doses over 4 months and zero good bacteria on testing no improvements either

Having success right now with Sacc Boulardi from Kirkman, didn;t suit him last time round (nasty rash but ? die off related) I am ordering more, Cally swears by them for her Bella

Throwing in some odd Primal Defense when I have the strength to crush the beetle looking pills. We were doing this prior to BioKult way back before the McBrides made them, he was doing fine but we switched to BioKult when they stopped producing caps you could empty

I have AiA follower friends who say good things about Natures Probiotics, however, given their many sugar filled recipes, long term Nystatin and really weird ideas about treating yeast I have read there, I don;t know how much store to place in that one LOL

Others report good stuff with Threelac, Klaire range - Therbiotic Complete etc

That should keep you busy investigating - I am keen to know what works for others too

Mandi in Sunny Dorset!

Was ordering probiotics today and looking thru that DAN notes email you posted last week. Wondered if anyone had tried these probiotics as they were one of 4 types recommended??

lol Mandi, we have had just the opposite, Culturelle I used on my already constipated son and it was great, used it on squidgy pants and it was a nightmare.

Multiflora is our chosen probio.

Had to laugh about AIA, my son was soo very much worse on their recipes, back then when I was so green I didn't realise he had Candida, and he was eating such a very high carb high sugar diet straight from their recipe book.

>>>me too, except that was before the recipe book, marilyns cookies were the only successful GFCF thing I ever cooked, all the diet books, lewis etc had to be binned after taking 12 weeks to arrive from Amazon.com - green me didn;t know there was a co.uk because of all th sugar in there - and you should have seen Barabara's rolls - quartermass expriement or what, good job Sam loved baked beans LOL
