This isn't mentioned in TFA, but a relevant tip for anyone interested: there are two "good bacteria" probiotics I know of that have been studied in people with IBS and IBD: VSL-3 and Visibiome.
However, the formula currently sold as Visibiome is the same formula that used to be sold as VSL-3, whereas VSL-3 was forced to change their formula after a legal dispute. So most of the studies, because most of them predate this name/formula split, talk about VSL-3 but are referring to the active ingredient in Visibiome. Some people report success with one or the other, but I definitely prefer Visibiome overall.
- imtringued 2y agoWhy would they refer to a specific brand instead of the bacterial strains?
- spondylosaurus 2y agoIt's a combo of a half-dozen strains, so I assume it's just easier to use the short brand name instead of listing them all over and over throughout the paper.
