But I haven't been using it for that long so I can't necessarily recommend it. It came recommended by simpleskincarescience.com. That site has a good article on probiotics. The top one he recommended more was really expensive. So I thought I'd try this one instead. Plus I wanted pills that were easy to swallow.
I read a study that rosacea sufferers saw improvement with L. paracasei. But overall skin health is improved with other strains. I think the simpleskincarescience.com might have a reference to the study.

Ok so I saw on amazon it does list it in their list of bacteria. That is really crazy!!!! I am so curious now that I am determined to find out why it’s there!

Tell me about it—I didn’t even get a chance to ask a couple of questions! I’m calling the insurance company and complaining. Not that that will do anything!
Unreal. 35 years old and you are told you are SUPPOSED to ache. What bullshit.
Well, today I had an orthopedic doctor look at my knee, and, surprise, there is a small tear in the meniscus… but that isn’t the problem. I have patellar tendonitis. He poked and prodded, asked questions, and got it figured right away. Had me get on the table and showed me some stretches to do at home, ordered me some physical therapy, and answered my short list of questions. He also said don’t waste my time with chondroitin or glucosamine, but that I should try some SAMe as it does well for orthopedic issues. Well, at least not all doctors suck.
I hear you. Doctors have an unwarranted god status. I could list a whole slew of incompetent doctors (and dentists!) I’ve had. Don’t get me started.
I have a bottle of probiotics ordered:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0050FKPU0/?th=1
It includes two of the strains that I’ve read about that help with depression. Thank you for the offer to send me your probiotic—let me try this one out and I’ll let you know. I guess I wonder how you really know it is working?
Well, I know one thing for sure, if I have more that one or two drinks, my mood is definitely worse the next day or two. And, I don't recover very easily like the good old days of drinking... Certainly seems like dumping a bunch of alcohol in your gut isn’t a good idea, but I don’t know if it makes it past the stomach. A small amount of red wine is supposed to be good for you. Maybe there is a strain of bacteria from France that does good thing with a regular feeding?? :)
Glad the exercise reduction is working for you. I sometimes overdo it… more must be better, right? But no rest for the muscles, no growth.
Yeah, I hear you. The financial bit always messes with my sleep. I live in a fairly noisy neighborhood, but with the earplugs and fan running, I’m generally good. Except for now as part of the Remeron withdrawal is disturbed sleep. I stay asleep all night, but feel like crap in the morning. And the day is a bit of a slog. I can tell I’m not getting good sleep. Chemical sleep just isn’t very good.
I fly to NM in three days. Looks like it is pretty warm there. Yeah, I hear you about that… my friends have a farm in Vermont and when I sleep there I sleep like the dead!
I’m just so very tired of all these ADs and crap. Like I said previously, I’ve only gotten off them when I was in ketosis, so that’s the way I’m heading…
if your just taking a bottle of acidophilus you may not be getting the verity you need try something like http://www.amazon.com/Multi-probiotic-Lactobacillus-Acidophilus-Bifidobacterium-Saccharomyces/dp/B0050FKPU0/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1381520832&sr=8-1&keywords=nexabiotic
and lots of phylium fiber to inulin fiber. So basically Metamucil regular and Metamucil clear
I have a cat with IBD, and he has problems with chronic diarrhea/colitis symptoms.
I give him two dietary supplements. One is human grade, one is pet-grade.
Pet grade: Honest Kitchen Perfect Form. This is mainly a fiber supplement, but it also contains slippery elm bark, which works as a lubricant in the digestive tract, which reduces irritation and inflammation. I dose according to the instructions on the can. A $14 can lasted me a full year with daily use.
The human grade: Jarrow S. Boulardii. This is not a pro-biotic, but is a dietary yeast. The whole idea behind this is that your cats gut may not have a proper amount of good gut bacteria. The dietary yeast creates an explosion in good gut bacteria, which reduces inflammation.
I dose this at a near-human dose of 1 pill per day (and they are horse pills even for people), so a $40 bottle lasts 6 months. This is more than you would typically use on a pet---you'd only be using about half a pill. Problem with this stuff is that the MOS is bitter, so most cats won't eat it, you have to pill it. (Some cats are weird, like mine. He'll eat it.) Ideally, you'd buy a $10 bag of size 3 gelatin capsules and re-capsule it. The cat should get 1-2 per day. Warning: it WILL make your cat gassy and give them tummy rumbles until their body adjusts.
For this product, there is also a stop-diarrhea protocol which essentially calls for giving them a dose of this stuff every 4 hours for 24 hours, then dosing 2x/day, until the cat is stable enough to go to once a day.. I did do it after my cat had a particularly bad setback, and it worked.
I have been able to back off the use of these two products in recent weeks. My cat is currently stable using medication and prescription food, so I have been able to reduce the supplements. Ideally, I'd want to wean him off the steroids, but the supplements aren't miracle workers.
I have also tried Nexabiotic, but found that it was not strong enough to do any good for my cat.
The only vet-grade probiotic my vet stocks is Forti-Flora, and it simply didn't work. I found these supplements through a feline IBD support group. My vet had never heard of their use before, but since the ingredients couldn't hurt, she was all for trying them.
As a fairly recent probiotic convert, I think they're a major facet of health that people neglect.
iLLyNoiZe has a solid bit of info. I'd also recommend reading the strains within certain probiotics. The approach here is that you can find what in particular you need. Specific strains have specific things they target, and getting a feel for these can help you troubleshoot any problems (or possibly narrow things down if you need to switch brands for any reason). This is more of a longer-term recommendation, of course! Good to make note of stuff that works, I figure.
Just for curiosity's sake, I'm using this stuff:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00H61ZBZU
... although, based on Labdoor info, I'm probably going to switch over to this (or Garden of Life) once my bottle runs out:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0050FKPU0
Looking through my notes, these are the three I've taken post-floxing, all of which have caused flare ups:
The last time I took a probiotic was about a year ago (Dr. Ohhira's), and it caused my joint inflammation to get worse, especially in my left knee and ankle, and it hasn't gotten better since. This has made me fearful of taking any other probiotics, but I'm realizing now that the reaction indicates that something's out of balance that will likely need to be addressed for my health to return.
Anyone have a suggestion for products available in the US for something comparable?
This has both, but also lots of other stuff:

It is worth a shot. One of the one I'm doing research on is
http://www.amazon.com/Multi-probiotic-Lactobacillus-Bifidobacterium-Saccharomyces-Delayed-Release/dp/B0050FKPU0
OTC probiotics contain FDA GRAS generally recognized as safe ingredients. They shouldn't be pro inflammatory or irritating to the gut.
The thing that's helped me most with my IBS-C is a recent switch to a different probiotic - Nexabiotic. It has some well-researched strains not usually found in standard ones and has made me regular for the first time in my life. Previously, I was lucky if I went once a week.

Even better than Visioniome and requires no refrigeration. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0050FKPU0/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_pEDkDbRSB9VR4
