What probiotics do you use

We are looking for a really good probiotic. We have been using a pretty good one from Metagenics (sp?) and then one called primal defense. However, I think we need something better.

Just curious what others are using. There are so many things out there and with the cf system I know that it needs the best.

If you have any ideas or can point me in the right direction I would really appreciate it.

We have tried several different enzymes as of late and are still malabsorbing, so the next logical step is to see if the integrity of the GI has been harmed and needs some building up.


If there are other lines of thought as to why our daughter might be malabsorbing followed by bouts of constipation, please let me know.

Thanks- Tiffany

I am using culturelle with my son. He takes one in the morning and one in the evening w/his 'applesauce cocktail"

I also put a bit of miralax in his water in the morning. I think of it as a nice balance between the two.

That's what I take, too (Culturelle). I was really surprised- it does make a difference when I am taking antibiotics, and even inbetween when I'm not. It does sound like it might be more of an enzyme problem though, from what I've read around here- I had to take few different ones to find one that actually helped. <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif" border="0"> A probiotic would probably be a good thing to do though- I've been pleased.

I just make sure my diet has plenty of yogurt in it. When I was younger all I ever drank was acidophilus milk to prevent problems. Worked great.
