It is a supplement that helps foster the growth of the good bacteria/flora in our bodies that help fight off the bad. It is especially beneficial to take after being on antibiotics because that kills off the good & bad flora in our system.

I took it for more that a year but now I don't seem to need it anymore.

It is important to take a brand that is live and high potency (it must be refrigerated - if you just take some capsules off a shelf they probably won't do much good).

Here is the site for the brand that I was taking VSL web page

Also here is wikipedia's info on probiotics if you want to have a better understanding...http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Probiotic

Hope that helps,
Leigh
