the pH of the stomach increases after a meal. Apparently, if you take a probiotic on a full stomach the pH will be higher increasing the likelihood of the probiotic surviving in the stomach so it can get to the colon alive. Although many probiotic bacteria can with stand the pH of an empty stomach.
