Organika Acidophilus Supplement Legal?

Concentrated pectin is different from the pectin found in fruit and is

not legal. There are legal probiotics at

http://pecanbread.com/probiotics.html#brands . If you are not dairy

free I order Lyosan straight from the company (much cheaper than

grocery and health food stores).

Probiotics aren't formulated to make a proper yogurt. You should use

a balanced yogurt starter for that. Yogurt starter must contain at

least S. thermophilus and L. bulgaricus. L. acidophilus and/or L.

casei are okay to have in the starter also.

Hi Sheila:

Thanks for the info. Yes, I will keep making my yogurt with the

Yogourmet starter. I just thought it would be easier to get the extra

acidophilus through a local source (even if it is $12.99 for a

bottle) than going mailorder, which for some reason I am loathe to

do, especially if involves customs and ordering through the states

and using a credit card.

Theresa,

I think Lyosan is a Canadian company... and they make an acidophilus supplement

that is legal, as well as the Yogourmet yogurt starter. I'm not sure of the

contact information, but you must be able to order it somewhere in Canada.

Check them out on the web. Just google lyo-san or yogurtmet and you will get

their site. You can order from a toll free number. They will speak French to

you. Just start talking in English and they will switch.

Lyosan is a Canadian company. I live in Newfoundland, so I order my

yogurt starter from them. You can get a legal acidophilus

supplement also along with other items. The last time I ordered it

was $10.95/12 (10 g)packs of yogurt starter and $9.25 for 90

acidophilus capsules. I order through email. You should be able to

get the order forms from lyo-san@...

Their website is http://www.lyo-san.ca/english/index.html

Hi Sheila and Carol:

I did check out the site. It doesn't have prices, but I've e-mailed

them for more info. I'm paying $3.00 for a six-pack of starter, but

I'll look at the supplement. Thanks for the info.
