Probiotics (was Re: Vascular flushing and antibiotics.)

[Guest guest]

I did a search on Culturelle, but all I found was a bunch of french

websites (and I'm a little concerned about french products ever since

tolerin facial skincare moisturizer proved to be comedogenic on my

skin). I'm unfamiliar with this brand -- I've never used it before.

Can you post/email the web site, if this company has one? Thanks.

P.S. I don't think anyone can avoid antibiotics, even if they want

to. Every piece of meat you eat, unless its range fed, totally

organic (but then you still have to worry about the fact that the

animals might have eaten some pesticide laden leaves or grass), is

loaded with antibiotics -- mostly tetracyclines. So, even if you

don't take minocycline, you still do, albeit indirectly. And if

tetracyclines make cows and bigger and stronger, healthier with less

infections, then they must be good for me. I've never seen a pig

with rosacea or acne even though they're in the mud all day
