Hi Fishnets,
(Go to the research library here for a ton of information.)
In my book there is no "vs" to it, the two do different things but go hand in hand in helping the over all gut health. I take a digestive enzyme with each meal. Note: some here are confusing digestive enzymes with herbs that help digestion. Some companies make pills that contain both. And Beano contains only one form of digestive enzyme. It's great and I take it when eating gassy foods but for one that I use with every meal it contains a varity of enzymes.........Amylase, Lipase, Protease, etc.
The probiotic acts like yogurt in adding to the good flora in your gut to help resist the bad bacteria that may form. It fights off those type of invaders that could cause infections. Again, do a library search.
Personally, there are lots of suitable brands out there. Primal defense as far as I'm concerned is way over priced and has some other unnecessary ingredients. Ask your HFS for a reasonalbly priced, over all digestive enzyme. The probiotic is another area you will have to decide for your self. Lots like Jarro, and for the $ is a good deal. I've taken just about all brands.
Hope this helps.
