I take Acidophilus Plus with Live bacteria. It's six bucks (including tax). i get it at my local grocery store.

I did have some gas when I started taking it and some very erratic D. I have been taking it for over a year now no gas, no erratic D just smooth (solid) bms.

It works great for me and the gas and D did not last over a few days. I guess my body was adjusting to something new being put into it.

Good luck.

are you going to try? I thought FOS was suppose to be bad. Have you heard differently. I am also looking for a probiotic, but am leery of FOS in some of the brand. I think PB8 has it in it.

do most people find them beneficial? If they help, any particular brand you could recommend?

Heather warns against this ingredient. She says to be careful with it as it may cause gas and bloat, like inulin.

I live in San Francisco, so the majority of food stores here are Safeway. I buy their brand, Safeway Select Acidophilus Plus. It has a half billion live cells per capsule and I take 2 capsules a day. One in the morning and the other before I go to bed at night. It is really great and works for me.

BIG HUGS
