It's a very beneficial supplement!. I use Optiflora which is a two-product system which includes Probiotic (Bifidus & Acidophilus!.!.!.microflora) + Prebiotic (FOS!.!.!.food source for microflora)!. This product is different in that it has a patented encapsulation process which guarantees the delivery of 500 million live bacteria to the intestines!.
