What probiotic supplements do you use?


Heading to the Zimbabwe bush soon for an extended period of time. My travel nurse recommended bringing a supply of probiotic supplements with me. Any recommendations? I keep a steady diet of fermented vegetables at home, but that's not practical where I'm going. Thanks in advance!

You know that song by Jefferson Starship?

   One pill makes you larger
   and one pill makes you small
   and the ones that mother gives you
   don't do anything at all
I think probiotics are way overhyped and are in the "ones that mother gives you" category.
