Obviously at Stellar we use muscle testing to determine the unique needs of each patient, but think about it like this… You have billions of gut bugs in many different strains in your biome. What we want is balance, so there are three things to consider.
#1- If your gut is balanced, maybe you don’t need to rock the boat.
#2- Taking the same strains of probiotics every day forever will create imbalance. You should consider rotating different strains of probiotics.
#3 If you are having symptoms (ex: indigestion) you may need to w**d out some bad bacteria before providing more good bacteria. Or provide some nutrients to improve the environment the good bacteria live in.
In short it, is never as easy as taking a probiotic every day. All probiotics are not created equal! This is why you should seek the guidance of a trained functional medicine provider.
