Probiotics for the GI tract
Ever since an 8 month bout with Cdiff about 7 years ago, my Gi tract has never been the same. I have continued to take Florastor & Florajen3 ever since then, but I would like to get on some that work specifically for the GI tract. I have done a lot of research on this & these are the ones I have come up with:
Lactobacillus reuteri
Lactobacillus rhamnosus
Lactobacillus plantarum
Lactobacillus longum
Lactobacillus acidolphilus
Lactobacillus brevis
Bifidobacterium infantis
Bifidobacterium lactic
VSL3
When I had Cdiff I took VSL3, Culturelle, Florastor, & Lactobacillus reuteri
Dr David Perlmutter reccomends #s 3, 4, 5, 6 & 7. I have read endorsements elsewhere of ruteri & rhamnosus
Any comments on the above? It's an impressive list!
