I think probiotics are a good thing. They say people on a high processed western diet have a lack of diversity with their stomach bacteria and its associated with all kinds of problems.

That being said it can make the whole digestive processes a bit more gassy and smelly (especially at first) in my experience. But I think a lot of that improves once your body adjusts.

Same thing with beans I noticed. Beans are great though once you adjust.

Ya. Trying to get people to change their diet and they think they are allergic or whatever...
