If you do, I’m curious—are you getting them through yogurt, or are you more of a capsule person? I’ve noticed there is such an overwhelming amount of these products flooding the shelves lately, though they always seem a bit overpriced when you consider how quickly you go through them... it feels like a constant drain on the wallet. I suppose one might wonder if just sticking to standard probiotics would be sufficient enough, or if that's just wishful thinking.
Not many people realize that most of the bacteria found in every type of yogurt or whatever else is on the market gets wiped out by stomach acid. Capsules are recommended because they're designed to release their contents exactly where they're needed—in the gut. You really think $1.25 a day, which is what those capsules cost, is too much to pay for your own health??
