Hi all, I was just wanting to know what other probiotics Canadians take?? I normally take 6 a day each of Fungal and Primal Defense by Garden of Life. AFter antibiotics I take Udo's bowel one 3 capsules a day on top of the Garden of Life stuff. I am currently working with a Naturopath and we are trying to figure out what is the best to take physically and financially. She has called VSL people to see if she can get a physician discount which she would then pass on to me. So I thought it would be good to see what other people are doing as well.
I have had pouchitis for two months now. Can't seem to shake it. I did a course of Flaygl and Cipro and now am taking a tetrcycline and Flagyl at the same time, hopefully this will do the trick. I am hoping for prevention here. Thank you in advance.
Sonja

Hi Sonja,

I know lots of people swear by VSL#3 but for me I couldn't get through 2 weeks of it as it was causing me so much gas and discomfort. Perhaps I should have started at half a packet a day and worked up from there?

Currently I am taking a new probiotic called TuZen that seems to be working quiet well for now. It has a count of 10billion. Plus I try to eat probiotic enriched yogurt everyday.
