Anyone try Ultra Flora probiotics?

I take Ultra Flora Critical Colon (80 billion) as well as Jarrow S. Boulardii. I can't necessarily say thay they've helped, but I know they haven't hurt as I've been getting better. They seem to be pretty highly regarded around here. Look around at some of the other threads on here about probiotics for more.

Quincy, Ooops yeah, I saw both on the internet.. what I meant was the ultimate flora critical colon. I ordered it earlier today.

Codfish, how long have you been taking them for?

the cheapest place i found VSl #3 was the Target pharmacy. it was $69 for a 30 day supply. not as expensive as the website at least. my insurance didn't cover DS so i always bought regular.

i've been taking renew life products for about 3-4 months now and i like them. i don't get any gas or cramping from them like i did with VSL and florastor.

Woops, it is Ultimate Flora, ha. I've only been taking them a few weeks, but I think they may have helped with gas and bloating. It's hard to pinpoint what's doing what, though, since I'm still recently diagnosed and continuously moving towards remission.

For sure, man. I've actually been responding pretty well ever since being diagnosed and put on meds. I've put on a good 25 pounds (though I'm still skinny), and I went from never having taken any pills to my current regime of something like 27 every day with only some of the usual pred side effects (moon face, insomnia, minor hair loss and some increased acne-- nothing I can't handle). And all my bloodwork has been suprisingly good, especially considering how bad I was when I was hospitalized in June. Other than some disappointing BMs in the morning, I think I'm pretty close to remission. I'm just hoping I can keep it up; in a couple weeks I head off to college for the first time, a good 7.5 hours away from home.

But yeah, I definitely think intestinal flora is a vital aspect of this disease, and I hope to keep mine in some kind of favorable balance.
