The most popular one in the line of Kirkman products is ProBio Gold.

To give my son probiotics I have to empty out the capsules into ricemilk (he’s only 22 months so no way is he swallowing a capsule !)butI was thinking without the plastic (ish) capsule to protect theprobiotics surely they just get digested by the stomach acids andenzymes rather than getting down to the small and large intestine.
Does this make sense ?

The capsule will dissolve in the stomach, even if you give it as awhole capsule. So I believe that the probiotic will be equally aseffective either way you give it.

It can, especially if it is eliminating yeast.

We will be starting our 2, almost 3 year old son, on probiotics. Oneis Travacor (to aid with ‘bad’ bacteria problem) and the other is Calm-PRT. I was wondering if any of you have used these at all. Should Istart him with the entire capsule or should I start off slow atfirst? Also, he is already taking Super Nu Thera in his juice at mealtimes. Should probiotics be given away from the supplements or is atthe same time okay?
