I say this to encourage those who are not getting results from probiotics to not be afraid to take more.

Yes Russ I agree, it depends on how much reaches where it is supposed to go, alot does not because of stomach acid. I try to get one that passes through the acid to get where it belongs and be effective, but yes higher doses do work better for me. I had one that was 50 billion and took it daily! Very good stuff it was (CP1 I believe?). I agree you need more, you have how much bacteria in your stomach? 1 billion will do nothing to help really IMO, good post!

In Sanskrit, tulsi means literally "the incomparable one" and has been revered since ancient times. Tulsi, the holy basil, is said to have grown at the site of Christ’s crucifixion and is associated with St. Basil’s feast.
