Morgellons Disease Support Group

Well one useful tool for us is probiotics. Probiotics are beneficial bacteria. When one suffers from Morgellons disease replacing the good bacteria in our bodies is helpful.

So now we shall explore the benefits of probiotics, how they work, different types, etc. I will add I have used probiotics as an aid to my recovery from this disease. What types? chew able strawberry acidophilus wafers from GNC.com, Avtivia yogurt by Dannon, and some supplements which have different beneficial cultures. Some people really like creamy Kefir as well. I shall say that if one is on antibiotics probiotic use should be a few hours later, or they can negate each other. For those on Natural protocols, probiotics can be a nice added tool to strengthen you body and digest nutrients better. I also want to say that the better probiotics say live organisms, or living cultures. Mgs are not really good because the beneficial bacteria is not active.

This is what the National Center for Complimentary and alternative therapies had has to say about probiotics: http://nccam.nih.gov/health/probio... .
Well I wanted to add this little article because it had what I orginally wanted: a chart of what types of probiotics are in foods.

Here is the link:

I also wanted to say I hope some share their experiences with probiotics, and what they have used.
