Three lac question---Colleen, others

[Guest guest]

We use the kirkman gold chewable for celiac daughter who requests it

but I am trying to use something else. I have read chewables usually

don't get to the end of the bowel and that seems to be her issue.

Unfortunately I have yet to succeed in getting her to take

nonchewables.

and I do great on the genestra probiotic that is made for the

GFCF diet. I am not inclined to change that but a while ago I spent a

small fortune on some sort of threelac kit with enzymes and some

other oxygenation stuff. I am usually not that wacky (hard to sell

here I am sure) but I recall it as an emotional purchase. I take

everything I give my kids first to see how it feels. I did not take

threelac since the package seemed to have a lot of warnings,

mentioned continuous use was necessary, etc. I recall threelac is

supposed to be the one that keeps yeast most in check. Yeast is an

issue of ours but it is controlled well at the moment by coconut oil.

I am not inclined to have any of us sign on to this at this point but

since I bought it I want to know from those using it what is behind

all the warnings that don't appear on all the other stuff I have

bought.

I get that this stuff is unregulated and we all have to go into these

things with eyes wide open. Thing is, as a lawyer and paranoid mom,

seeing all those warnings on an unregulated product made me think:

What precipitated this?

Plus, I know McCarthy spoke of it in her book. I am grateful

for what she has done. I noticed her son had much more extreme issues

than us and think what may be right for him may not be right for us.

So hard to know and what he may need long-term we may benefit from

also but in smaller amounts or for a shoter time-frame.

I have read on this board before that all probiotics are not the

same. When I asked the GI what to use they said, " Something

compatible with GFCF and containing lactobacillus. " A friend read a

book on probiotics and told me to stay away from " signature blends. "

Anyone have any additional intel I should know? I also heard rotation

of them is good. I tend to be a rotation fan anyway...you can't hit a

moving target right?

Liz,

My DAN! tested this probiotic and was impressed with it keeping the yeast in

check. When she took Charlie off of the yeast detox, she said that we must

keep him on this specific one. I take it myself.

The other good one to look at ( Iam not sure if it is GFCF ) is BioK +.

LenandJoe.com reccommend it. My dad takes that.

My two cents.

Colleen
