I am looking for a new probiotic, now that I have run out of VSL #3. I was on the natures way website and i came across this (http://www.healthy.co.nz/view-product-1236.html). it doesn't seem to be a PB, but has anyone tried it/does it help?

I've tried colostrum in the past with no noticable benefits, it's important to be taking a probiotic daily, I actually use primadophilus reuteri made by natures way...the brand of colostrum I used was from a local store and I cannot remember the name as it was a long time ago now...maybe I would have noticed benefits from colostrum from another brand, regardless, I'm happy with my regime of bee propolis, omegas 3-6-9, fibre supplements (strongly recommended by my GI) and primadophilus reuteri probiotic.

My bum is broken....there's a big crack down the middle of it! LOL :)

I haven't heard of that one. I have used Culturelle in the past, but now use a Jarro formula that's working well for me.

Pan-colitis and GERD diagnosed May 2003

Asacol 12 per day, Azathioprine 75mg, Rowasa and Canasa as needed

Aciphex, Effexor XR, BCP, Rhinocort nasal spray

Culturelle, Biotin, Folic Acid, Forvia, Calcium, and B12

Osteopenia (hip and spine) from prednisone use. Started Azathioprine because I was steroid dependent.

I ordered the jarro-dophilus eps one online from iherb. Someone on the forum actually recommended it to me - i haven't been able to find the post to thank them :(
You can get Culturelle at Wal-Mart or online.
iherb has lots of different probiotics as well.
