A member asked:
Can you explain if it's worth buying probiotic suppliments for ibs treatment ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Probiotics have: Been shown to help many patients with ibs but all probiotics are not the same nor helpful. I use florastor or align and tell patients to avoid the others in healthfood stores that have not been tested or proven as the 2 above have.
