Wanna see someone freak- out – sweat and melt right before your eyes? Ask your doctor- chiropractor- pharmacist anybody at Whole Foods- GNC- Vitamin Shop- your local health food store — anyone on line (who hide behind their phony websites) & your goofy brother in law who just joined some multi level marketing scheme-  basically anyone who is trying to sell you a probiotic these questions-

Does your probiotic match the profile of bacterial strains in breast milk?

Does it require refrigeration and what is the bacterial activation temperatue?

What’s up with the population at the time of packaging?

What”s a CFU?

Does it need to be taken with colostrum (trick question)? If so in what ratio to the probiotic?

Why is that important?

Explain the role of each bacterial strain.

Why are you sweating?

Can my dog take these?

What is the source of these?

Do I really need all of these strains and at a dose of 1000 zillion billion?

Is this going to give me diarrhea?

Is this going to make me constipated?

Can I take this with my viagra?

Do I take it with the antibiotic?

What makes your’s better?

What makes you the expert?

Here are the real ball busters-

Hey Doc– aren’t you a hypocrite for prescribing antibiotics all day and now all of a sudden out of the blue you are talking about probiotics? What’s up with that? I think you are a bullshit artist. Can’t have it both ways can you?

And then the best one of all— if you are a masochist ask this one-

Ok—-can you  explain it to me! That’s alway the killer.

***Now I have several questions for YOU- mr /ms blog-newsletter reading -forum joining person—do YOU know the answers to these questions? Why not? Are you taking a probiotic? Which one? Is it the right one for you? How do you know you are not taking one that is for a salamander? Are you worried that it might— god all mighty —- interfere with  YOUR viagra?

Lastly– why is it that we live in a society that is more concerned about our penis that our colon? I mean what good is it if you can’t even get out of the bathroom?

Get your priorities straight– get informed-get the answers to these questions—- put yourself in position to not have to ask these questions——- because you DID get the right probiotic and don’t need it anymore- so the answers become moot.
