Probiotics

I took 1 daily satchel of VSL DS #3 for two months. No discernable improvement in my uc symptoms. Discontinued.

Last time I was in hospital (last May) I ended up to steroids, 6mp and Remicade. As I was 'triple immune supressed' as my doctor put it, they gave antibiotics and since then my gut has not felt the same - lots of IBS type symptoms and it was a struggle to do a solid poop.

Recently I have been taking cracked wall chlorella powder in my smoothie every morning. Amazingly, its cleared up my problems about about 1 week. Its a prebiotic and can triple the growth rate of good bacteria in the gut.

So the point I am trying to make - base on my experience, prebiotics are as, if not more impotant, than probiotics!
