Do you recommend liquid probiotic formulas that can be found in health stores?
To find an answer to this question, I have experimented with several brands in the past. Some left me bloated and flatulent for considerable stretches of time, even on a fiber-free diet. Perhaps theyd been just too effective. Or, its possible that live bacteria from liquid formulas took hold in the upper sections of the small intestine, where they shouldnt be. You may require a course of antibiotics to wipe them out if the discomfort becomes unbearable. Its less likely to happen with capsules, such as Enterophilus, because the bacteria in these preparations are sublimated (dried out) into hibernation. They remain asleep while commuting through the folds of the small intestine. This tripfrom the stomach to large intestinetakes around 24 hours. Once these bacteria reach the relative safety of the blind gut (it has the proper pH and no enzymes to devour them), they finally wake up and get into action.
