Thanks to all and a word about probiotics.

I wish to thank you all  for the information and support that I have received from people posting on this site.

I have taken on board a lot of the advice offered such as the importance of having decent quality supplements, something that has really made a difference.

I must mention one particular probiotic that is guaranteed to reach the intestines without being destroyed. It contains spores which are far more robust than live bacteria.

The effect on me has been similar to that of watering a wilting plant. I feel great. 

Thanks again to all of you.

Hi Pinkbed,

Please don't keep us in suspense. Tell us your secret probiotic. 😀

Hi Jose651,

I did not name the probiotic in question because I believe that it would be against the rules of this site - too much like commercial advertising. If you contact me at ...........I will email the item's name to you.

It is better if you want people to contact you to ask them do it by private message. They can do this by clicking on your name.

Pb,

It is not against the site rules to recommend supplements or meds that you have found to be beneficial. The whole point of the forum is to share our knowledge.

It is not a good idea to post your personal email address in an open post but use HU's private messaging system instead. 

You can edit your post by clicking on the little grey arrow to the right of the "like" button.

Pinkbed,

I have deleted your email address.  Members can send secure private communications via private messages.

It doesn't breach site guidelines to name on the forum a probiotic or supplement you have found beneficial.

O.K., I've got it.

The item I was referring to in my earlier post is Swanson Probiotics ProDURA Bacillus Coagulans (30 Veg Drcaps).

Thank you for that recommendation. I will read up about it. Glad you have found something that helps. When I 1 st joined HU I didn't know my arse from my elbow either.

Thanks for sharing.

Hi Pinkbed,

Do you buy directly from Swanson in America or from the UK? The price differential is HUGE!

Cheers!

I see what you mean about price difference. Luckily, I bought from the American site.

Here is some information about Bacillus Coagulans. This website is worth noting if you have an interest in probiotics (which I do) - it seems to have good information. powerofprobiotics.com/Bacil...
