It is a myth that many strains are better than one strain. There is some evidence beginning to emerge that some strains of probiotics may exacerbate certain disorders such as IBS. VSL#3 is a multistrain probiotic that has clinically tested on IBS. My understanding of the research findings is that Align is generally more effective than VSL#3 for IBS. Here is a link to a message I posted some time ago that give abstracts to various studies done on probiotics and IBS.
