Probiotics? Do you use

Brendajm · 07-24-2012, 07:04 AM

If you do how many do you take a day and is there one that you really like? I am taking one twice a day. But was thinkingnof upping it to 3

I did take them for a couple of years but no longer find them necessary. I guess it depends on why you are taking them?

I'm trying to add them to my diet instead-- making my own sauerkraut (so easy it ought to be illegal!), kefir, and pickles.

After giving birth to my son 6 years ago, I was up to 3 a day. I was in the hospital for a few days and recovering from a c-section and needed them to get my gut back into balance. I took Healthy Trinity at that time because I wanted the best and that brand is what I consider the best. However I cannot afford that on a regular basis anymore. I take what I find in the store and have a stash of Accuflora and am working my way through those boxes now. I have no problem with upping my dose to more than one a day.

I take Nature Made Triple Probiotic (it also contains vitamins/minerals). I take one a day as per the instructions on the bottle. I'm really pleased with the results.

My multi vitamin has probiotics in it which is nice because otherwise I don't think I'd bother taking them. I take Rainbow Lite for women. I love this brand because they're all natural.
