sorry, i’m quite slow with all these supplements. Isn’t probiotics can also be found in yoghurt? Why do we still need give probiotic supplements to our kids if they are taking yoghurt?


And what’s the exact benefit of taking probiotic?

Yes, probiotics are found in yoghurt. But for individuals who need a higher \"dosage\" of probiotics, then one needs to take more than what is found in yoghurt or yakult/vitagen. For info, there are some adults and kids who need a higher concentration of probiotics in order for the benefits to be absorbed into their bodies :lol:

Schweppes... I was recommended the brand OMX by Dr Ohhira (Japan) for probiotics. It is for general health and healthy colon. There's a Spore distributor too. Pls let me know whether it is also good through your readings?

Hi Westmom, sorry, have not heard nor come across the product, OMX by Dr Ohhira (Japan) before, so I can't comment.

To find out more information and the efficacy of a particular brand or health product, I wd go to Amazon.com and do a search, and then read the testimonials and feedback of previous users of the product. If the feedback is more positive (than negative), then it says somethin about that particular brand or health product.

I know this is not the most reliable way, but at least some information is better than none at all.

regarding Dr.Ohhira’s OMX, I can share a few things as I had been taking for more than a year. I bought it from Unity store (NTUC). It works pretty well as I have weak stomach and ,and suffer from Stomach acid reflux,etc.

The lady from Unity store recommended me to try. and I am now taking one capsule before bedtime. Currently it is out of stock ( for over a month)
anyway, every person reacts differently, so read the label and try it out yourself. take it empty stomach.

cheers

for me & my family - personally; these days there are just too much processed food outside and also as we all know we are surrounding with all sorts of air-borne viruses and bacteria.

yoghurt or yakult/vitagen do not give the unique robustness of Lactobacillus GG = good bacteria. further more to what i know; light, air, heat and moisture can affect the number of active bacteria to diminish; thus end up just paying for a \"flavourful\" sugary snack drink that doesn't give the benefits of the required probiotics to help boots the immune system and help improves the digestive health.
hope this info is helpful
