Royal academe of medicine says 80% of all degenerative disease is due to not enough probiotic bacteria in our guys. So if you want to reduce your chances of degenerative disease, you had better take some probiotic supplements. But what Are the best brands?
Below, I list and discuss the best and most popular probiotic brands.
dr. ohhira probiotics
This formula was created by Ichira Ohirra – a Japanese microbiologist who has been researching probiotics for well over 30 years. Here are some facts about the probiotics:
- complete probiotic system
- 5 yr fermentation process
- 82 prebiotic foods + 12 strains of lactic acid bacteria
- based on centuries of traditional use in japan
- chew to help with heartburn
The strains included in the Dr. Ohirra’s probiotics are:
- Bifidobacterium breve ss. breve
- Bifidobacterium infantis ss. infantis
- Bifidobacterium longum
- Enterococcus faecalis TH 10
- Enterococcus acidophilus
- Lactobacillus acidophilus

- Lactobacillus casei ss. casei
- Lactobacillus fermentum
- Lactobacillus helveticcus ss. jagurti
- Lactobacillus plantarum

culturelle
Culturelle is a top probiotic brand based on Lactobacillus GG strain. This strain has been shown to have an amazing number of benefits from reducing colic in infants, lowering the risk of colon cancer, to stimulating the immune system.

Yakult
Takult is a sweet drinkable probiotic yogurt that is extremely popular in Asia, and is now beginning to make in-roads in North America. Watch the funny commercial below.Jarrow
Jarrow says they are the number one selling probiotic in North America. And this is something I believe, because whenever I go into whole foods, I always always see this product…and often use it while traveling.
Dr. Mercola’s Complete Probiotics
Dr. Mercola is one of my favorite people in the health space; he meticulously researches all of his material, and uses all proceeds to further fund the dissemination of health information. He takes no profits for himself, outside of his practice.

I can’t find a price list for Mercola supplements, specifically probiotics. I find only descriptions.
Hey Shirley!!!
Ya, he likes to hide the prices wayy at the bottom of the page: http://probiotics.mercola.com/probiotics.html
If you’ve ever studied advertising, Ovilvy said something like “Long ads with lot’s of useful information sell products very well.” So Dr. Mercola typically writes very very long articles, explaining exactly why you should buy the product.
I put myself on Dr. Mercolas probiotics & got a VERY sore bum. I also put my dog on his pet version & the poor guy got a very itchy bottom. It took this dumb human several weeks to figure out what was going on. Why don’t they mention this side effect when they write these articles about it?
Well, because he wants to sell more probiotics is the short answer.
I guess the longer answer is that the side effects were probably written somewhere on the site, but he did not emphasize them.
And just remember, side effects aren’t always a bad thing: http://probiotics.org/side-effects-of-probiotics/
I’ve used Dr Mercola’s probiotics for some time and I can assure you it’s very good. I’ve tried some others before, but Dr Mercola has put together a highly effective supplement that I enjoy daily. I’ve had my share of stomach problems like IBS so I appreciate a good supplement. It contains at least 70 billion CFU per serving and 10 potent strains. Like you say, Dr Mercola does his homework before he put together a new supplements.
Thanks for a nice site.
Thank you for sharing your experience.
Dr. Mercola is a fraud and a swindler. You would get more live active cells by the licking the ground outside than from his spore-formers! DONOTWANT!
thank you for sharing your opinion. He seems pretty legit to me…though I can’t stand his sales-y newsletters…unsubscribed years ago
