Culturelle??       06/05/05 09:42 AM Edit Reply Quote Cyndy Reged: 03/05/05 Posts: 1301 I have also read the studies on this probiotic and it has proven very reliable. It is used in hospitals now to treat diarrhea in children. It has a fantastic reputation among the medical field, which tends to not embrace any sort of "alternative treatment" outside prescriptions. However, I was under the impression that this brand was only useful for diarrhea and not constipation. From you earlier posts I presumed you were a C??? Do you find this Culturelle helps you without increasing the C? I would think that if it is used to treat D, it might cause us C folks to be more C. I know it only has one strain of acidpholous or probiotic or whatever you call a strain of live cultures and I think muliple strains are recommended for IBS over probiotics only containing one. I read in the research library theat L. Plantarium is good for pain of IBS and that L Rhueti is good for C or was it L. Rhamonous? Anyhow, if you could get a multi-strain with these specific types in them, wouldn't it help us more?? Please tell me what you think about Culturelle for constipation. I have some from when I was D, but now I'm afriad to take them since I am C. They probably aren't good anymore anyhow! Is your friend that's taking them a C or a D? PS. I got mine at CVC or Walgreens. Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator
