Probiotics Review

I never knew that one should take probiotics, especially when taking antibiotics. General Practitioners are very weak on natural healing techniques. Until I was diagnosed with cancer I never took probiotics daily. They are cheaper than yogurt and do much more good. Right now I am alternating brands as they all have something different to offer. Not all probiotic strains are equal for everyone.
Some brands must be refrigerated although it is smart to refrigerate any probiotic for superior shelf longevity.
Some are super expensive and are worth the money, but there may be budget concerns. And I already have TCM herbal formulas in my budget-not cheap.
P & G's Align and Ultimate Flora cost about a dollar per day. Not bad for good immune support. But I am currently under 30 cents per day with good quality (Garden of Life's) Primal Defense Ultra and Jarro-Dophilus EPS. In fact the Jarrow formula is rated above Align in a "Better Health Review".
It does take time to get used to probiotic supplements if one has never tried them. I used Enzymatic Pearls Immune as my introductory brand. They are economical (the regular Acidophilus Pearls) and their delivery system is as good as anyone's, but now I want something stronger. And Enzymatic probiotics are missing the critically needed L. rhamnosus.
Here's the rundown on what specific strains are for:
To take with antibiotics=Lactobacillus rhamnosus, Saccharomyces cerevisiae boulardi, Bacillus coagulans
For immune function=L. rhamnosus, L. acidophilus
For eczema=L. rhamnosus
For IBS=L. plantarum, Bifidobacterium infantis
For urinary function=L. rhamnosus, L reuteri
For traveler's diarrhea=S. cerevisiae boulardi
Some day I be ready for ReNew Life's Ultimate Flora Critical Care. It is the apparently the current leader. Bang for the buck best may be Jarro-Dophilus EPS.

  1. Even if you do everything in your power to restore GI health, it’s still possible to experience some side effects as a result of the antibiotics treatment.

  2. All fruits and veggies are a good pick, especially if you consume these raw or lightly cooked. Fruits and vegetables contain an array of essential vitamins and nutrients. They’re also rich in antioxidants and fiber. Fiber is beneficial for maintaining healthy weight and it also has a positive impact on cardiovascular health.

    Another great food you can eat a lot of is… eggs! Eggs have long been stigmatized because of the cholesterol found in the yolk. New studies, however, suggest that the cholesterol found in egg yolks doesn’t contribute to an increase in bad cholesterol levels.

  3. There are some foods that will interfere with your attempts to boost HGH levels naturally. Avoiding such foods and choosing an all-natural product that will boost HGH production can help you make the most of your diet.
