What's better than probiotics?
About this episode
Many people take probiotics in the hopes that it will help reduce gastrointestinal struggles with excessive gas, bloating, diarrhea, constipation and other common complaints. Sometimes they help, sometimes they don’t. But why? Just what are probiotics and how are they created?
In this episode of the Defiant Health podcast, let’s discuss the ups and downs of commercial probiotics, why they are really little more than haphazard collections of microbes assembled without rhyme or reason. Then let’s discuss how you can do better than taking some random commercial probiotic off the shelf.
