I had the DS procedure in August, 2013.  I have lost my goal of 100 lbs. and I am starting to level off.  I was wondering if it is safe to take 5LAC which is a probiotic for intestinal health.  Does anyone know???

Probiotics are excellent for DSrs. I've recently started taking one that works well for me; for so long none of the ones I tried worked for long. The one I'm taking is VSL#3-DS; 900 billion bugs in an envelope, which is about a tablespoon of powder. I take 2 - 1/2 teaspoons a day. See if the one you're looking works for you but don't be afraid to look around at others. I know that Primal Defense Ultra by Garden of Life is very popular with some DSrs.
