What are probiotics?
Probiotics are live microorganisms thought to be beneficial to the host organism. The currently adopted definition by FAO/WHO, probiotics are: “Live microorganisms which when administered in adequate amounts confer a health benefit on the host”.
Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) and bifidobacteria are the most common types of microbes used as probiotics; but certain yeasts and bacilli may also be helpful. Probiotics are commonly consumed as part of fermented foods with specially added active live cultures; such as in yogurt, soy yogurt, or as dietary supplements.

I take 9bn active cultures a day ( 3 pills of 3bn) following Ashton Embry's recommendation.unlike other supplements, I see zero downside risk with probiotics – as such very comfortable taking high doses regularly.What do you think G ?
