  Very good info here, thank you! I've never heard much about prebiotics, how you can't digest it and the bad bacteria doesn't eat it. It sounds important though, there's probably supplements you can take with them. I love to eat kefir, because it's so easy, you just drink it. And I'm a vegetarian, so it is very difficult for me to get yogurt without gelatin. It's just a huge struggle, that I've given up on finding a brand without gelatin. I'm serious about being a vegetarian, and won't compromise. I put kefir in a shake for lunch. - 2/23/2015 6:24:26 PM

  I LOOOVE sauerkraut. Just like CAT-IN-CJ's comment above, I'm also not crazy about milk-based; not because they're not delicious but because the companies add hidden sugar and man-made products created in labs. I'll generally go for artisan raw or un-pasturized cheeses and butter. I'm from Montreal and such products are available almost everywhere now as the demand is growing big time.YouTube is also FILLED with how to ferment your own veggies. Easy peasy and so fantastic for the gut! - 7/24/2014 11:50:02 AM

  I want to thank Sparkpeople for the wonderful Goodbelly 21 day program. I have been looking for 2 months for info on what to eat since discovering that I need the gerd diet. This is the only place that I have found comprehensive, useful and usable info. And the fact that it is fed to you step by step through daily e-mails, makes it so much easier to implement. I can't express what a difference this has made for my health and well being. I'm not a religious person, but God bless you Sparkpeople!!! - 1/31/2014 1:29:12 PM

  Good article. I don't care much for the milk-based sources but I do love kombucha. I began making it at home last year . . . it's simple to do and a lot less expensive and better quality than what I found in the stores.
  
  Also, remember, we can do all the good stuff the right way but if our energy has been blocked, we won't reap as great a benefit. I was amazed at the benefit I received from acupuncture. - 1/8/2014 11:41:15 AM
