I've taken all kinds, currently taking some I bought at CVS..
I know there are higher quality ones. If you take it, which ones are you taking?

I take the Nature Made brand.
that's what I am taking now. It's 500 million live cultures but I've seen ones that are in the billions. At least at the time of manufacture.

Re: Acidophilus
The recommended dose (depending on the purpose) is between 1 billion and 10 billion per day, so you're reaching the minimum if you take 2 pills.

I'll try to find the source of that info. I *think* it was the Mayo Clinic but I'll find out for sure.
