Can anyone recommend the best probiotics?

There are a lot of worthless probiotics.

I can share some really good ones here: Prescript Assist is an excellent soil based one that cured me of a terrible gut condition within days. I took it for 1.5 years but now I don’t need it any more. This one is on Amazon.

ELIXA is a very powerful probiotic from England that has been carefully formulated to get into the intestinal area where they need to go, and is a good mix of good bacteria. Go to the website to order.

I know some other good ones too if anyone is interested.

The gut bugs themselves love fibers, especially resistant starches. Cooked and cooled potatoes are great (potato salad, anyone). As is cooked and cooled rice. Pricy ones are like inulin etc.

Yup.

I asked the Doc about the prescription kind and he said the only difference was the price.

Generally I get the stuff that is marked “Stable at room temperature” with 20 billion critters per capsule.
