A friend sent this link to me and I've read it two times and will read it again to let it sink in. I've heard the expression "good health begins in the gut" so this is what this is all about.
It talks about antiobiotic use and I am of the camp that these are overused. And when they are needed are people replacing good bacteria with probiotics. Personally, I haven't taken a LOT of antiobiotics in my life but when I needed them I did. Thinking now, I KNOW when I had hip replacement I'm sure my body was bombarded with antiobioitics and, of course, no probiotics were given in the hospital. Right now I'm taking 30Billion CFU's one or two per day with a meal. Today, I'm taking 2. I like the Healthy Origins 30B CFU product. I'm sure there are many good ones but this is what seems to be my choice now. I don't have stomach or digestive issues per se and believe the DGL I've been taking keeps my stomach healthier. I'm doing more probiotics to see if I can achieve less pain. I just wonder IF the MD's advise probiotics when they write antiobiotic scripts. I've been taking a dose for dental since hip job, and surgeon never mentioned probiotics... So again, one has to be their own doctor so much. http://www.practicalpainmanagement.c...our-microbiome |

Just a note for anyone who has to take antibiotics and wants to use probiotics as well. If you take your probiotic at the same time as your antibiotic then the antibiotic will just kill the probiotic. It is recommended to have at least 3 hrs between the two.
For anyone who's interested Labdoor have done an assessment of various Probiotics. Here's the link: https://labdoor.com/rankings/probiotics Caroline - you'll be pleased to see yours stacks up well. |

Good to see the Healthy Origins up there. And yes they must be taken away from antiobiotics if one is taking them....3 hrs sounds right. C
