genotype and probiotics

> I like getting the probiotics because it's specific to your blood type. The

argument is, the probiotic that is good for one blood type is bad for another

blood type. I don't know if that's true, but I'd rather be safe than sorry.

Theoretically there is probably a link between genotype (not bloodgroup AFAIK)

and best choice of probiotics. But the science is really lacking, it is way too

early for this, it is a really complicated subject.

In general, I think it would be best to use probiotics with many different types

of organisms, and not the current types with one or just a few different types

of organism (usually all of them are from the same group of bacteria). But I

don't think there is anything like that on the market. Taking Kefir comes close

I guess

I agree that diet can be important for recovery, partly because of its influence

on probiotics and not just because of 'allergies' or need of certain

supplements. But after reading about some of these blood type diets I gave up,

the advice from different websites/docs is often very contradictory. Which makes

me think that there is very little actual fact (maybe some statistical truths)

and lots of guessing.
