During a recent visit to my husband's PC Doc, I asked about benefits of any probiotic treatment for him. He said he favored FloraStor. We originally tried VSL#3, and I think it helped him with frequency, etc, but he had a lot of gas. I know that FloraStor contains live Blastomyces (yeast) organisms rather than the bacteria (Lactobacilli?)contained in most other preps. He is not taking any antibiotics currently.

Have any of you pros tried it? What differences have you noticed? Is there anything to recommend or de-recommend one type over the other?

I appreciate this group and all of the people who contribute here. You all have a way of putting things into perspective for folks who are so involved and stressed that it's hard to cut to the chase. Thanks!
