Re: A new kind of probiotic

[Guest guest]

This is a link to a new kind of probiotic. The salesman explained to methat the good bacteria lives in our gut much longer as it has been made(process takes 2 weeks) to survive at our body's temperature. Have aread and let me know what you thinkWow, this looks interesting! And the two probiotics strains included are the two that are SCD legal!! Would the milk ingredients make it illegal though? I know they're okay in yogurt starter b/c the bacteria eat it, but I'm not sure if the bacteria would've eaten this... Peace =)Alyssa 16 yo UC April 2008, dx Sept 2008SCD June 2009 (restarted)Azathioprine 50 mg 1x per dayPrednisone 35 mg 1x per day

I don't know about whether everything is legal, but I was taking that stuff at

the recommended 1/2 to 1 per day, sometimes 2 per day after each of the 7 times

I was on antibiotics/antifungals last year. I would get all bloated, distended,

gassy and constipated (and return of planterfaciitis, etc. too) each time I was

on the meds, but then by about a month later I would be starting to come out of

it. It was so expensive and I was just frustrated, so on the 8th round of

super-antibiotics (can't remember the kind), I didn't take any probiotics at all

except some yogurt here and there, and that was the time I was totally stopped

up for days on end and then started bleeding afterward. Not sure if it's

coincidence or not. I was also under the most stress at that time. But I think

the BIO-K was definitely helping. I don't know if I was taking BIO-K plus

though. I don't remember the plus, but the bottles looked the same. For some

reason I thought that the ones I took had bifidus in them but maybe not.

Anyway, that's my story with them!

I think it's blasted all expensive, is what I think. $2.59 a capsule? I

can make a heckuva lot of yogurt for that price!

Thanks everyone for your comments. I thought it was expensive too and we can’t

be sure of the “skim milk powder” and “milk ingredients”

that also make up this probiotic. I was just wondering if the price and the

risk are all worthwhile as this type of bacteria is made to live a lot longer

in our guts. In the end, I think I’ll

stick to my homemade yogurt.

Thanks for posting. I was looking at the capsules which are pricey, but which

would seem like an ideal option for travel in situations where one cannot bring

yogurt along nor have regular access to a refrigerator for probiotics that

require refrigeration. Just wondering, are " enteric coating " and " ascorbic

acid " SCD legal?
