Thanks for sharing that-it's very true, some of the supermarket yogurt has no redeeming qualities from a probiotic standpoint, some are definitely better than others. My personal persepctive is always that if you can make it yourself, it will be better. I recently got a dehydrator and know some people make yogurt using that but I haven't figured that bit out yet! Hey Claire!

Basically you use a good starter and a yoghurt maker and ferment it for 24 hours at 100 - 110°F. I really love doing that and so do my kids! :) I personally used to struggle with IBS and I got the tip from a friend to make what he calls “24 hour yoghurt” at home because I also realized that the stuff they sell in supermarkets isn’t always actually better for you.

I buy some super-expensive brand (not home right now, so I can't check) at the health food store. This time I wasn't careful and got the powdered kind instead of the capsule kind. GROSS.

It did help some with the constipation problems I tend to have. I am very prone to candidiasis however and it didn't help a bit with that. I have since switched to fivelac and so far it has been the best probiotic for me that I have ever tried. I have tried many, many brands. Align would be one of my top 5 of all the brands that I have tried however. I would recommend it. I have tried align and did use it for four months consecutively.
