Probiotics??

[caseysmomgo]

If you don't eat yogurt, but eat healthy (no processed foods, no dairy, no gluten, no high fructose corn syrup, organic whenever possible, etc), are probiotic supplements necessary? Any opinions would be appreciated!!

They probably won't be necessary until you are much older.



...I still take them though.

Thanks for the reply! I take them also, but was just wondering if I was wasting my money...!!

I just can't help but think of those Saturday Night Live sketches skewering DanActive and Jamie Lee Curtis. Hilarious.

Unless you have digestive issues to deal with, don't bother. If you do have those issues, get some that is therapeutic strength, not what is found in a container of Danone.

Great advice...thanks! After reading the posts concerning supplement contamination, etc., I think I'll just stick to healthy eating!
