Newbie question regarding OTC probiotics

[Guest guest]

I have been a member of this group for awhile now, but not able to keep up with

posts so have not been receiving emails. But I have a question regarding OTC

probiotic supplements. I have been taking lactose aids for about 2 years now,

and recently have noticed there are quite a few new probiotic supplements on the

shelves at Wal-Marts. Align is one that comes to mind, although there were about

5 or 6 there when I checked yesterday. Does anyone have any input on these

products ? I have had chronic fatigue for over 30 years and have also had

chronic sinus problems and allergies to foods and inhalents. And about 2 years

ago I also started having trouble with milk products. I admit that I am not very

good at following detailed dietary instructions, partly because of my numerous

food allergies, it makes it very difficult to find things that I CAN eat. But I

welcome all suggestions on where I should start to try to feel better. ps) I

also have a mouth-full of silver fillings which I am aware does not help. But I

am hoping to get them removed this year.

Thank you in advance.
