Picking Probiotics for a Condition

Page: https://microbiomeprescription.com/Library/ProbioticSearch

This page will search over 3000 studies on the US National Library of Medicine for studies that:

  • Used probiotic strains that are available as retail products
  • Mentions the word you search for in the study

We then add the name of the product containing it, with a link to a site selling it. There may be other products that also include it.

Why I react to one probiotic but not the other

This does a cascade, from the probiotic mixture we look at all of the species/strains in it, then we go over to the KEGG: Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes and lookup the enzymes being produced by these bacteria. From these enzymes, we look up the products being produced.

When you compare two probiotics mixtures, you may not that one produces a lot more of some products than the other. These are likely candidates for why you have a different response.
