Date: October 01, 2010 09:25PM I thought that eventually some flora will start to grow in your gut according to what you tend to consume. Its only when there is a major upset that it need to be replaced, like taking antibiotics, or large amounts of alcohol. I could be entirely wrong. But I recall reading a N.H. raw foodist scoff at most probiotics or yogurt and like products having any real value. Re: Where do you get your probiotics?

But as for a straight probiotic source to repopulate the flora there really isnt any. I forgot to PM you back will get onto that now sorry. Re: Where do you get your probiotics?

Plus it has Saccharomyces boulardii which provides the correct B-12, Vit D & other nutrients we need. I've had to many health benefits from it in strengthening my immune system, healing candida/digestive issues, etc.
Fermented food I found isn't always the greatest. I guess if it's super fresh & in very small quantities it can be ok. Not prepackaged kombucha though. Always experiment & pay attention to your body. Simple Raw Recipes & Health Tips Re: Where do you get your probiotics?

Date: October 03, 2010 12:28PM Fermented foods should be made at home or from a source that you know has made them fresh. Most store bought is heated which means little to no good bacteria aswell as preservatives.
Water kefir is my preference for repopulating the good flora. Sorry, only registered users may post in this forum.
