That's correct for BioGaia. In Europe, it is rather easy to buy.

"BioGaia Gastrus" contains 2 strains of L. Reuteri (DSM 17938 and ATCC PTA 6475)

I crush the tablets to make yogurt following Dr. Davis recipe in SuperGut [1]

I have questions, please.

How long have you been eating the yoghurt? Do you use any other tablets/pills/etc to make it? Why make the yoghurt instead of just eating the pills? What do you think it's done for you?

>>> How long have you been eating the yoghurt? About 3-4 months now

>>> Do you use any other tablets/pills/etc to make it? No, but there are other recipes in the book than combine different bacteria

>>> Why make the yoghurt instead of just eating the pills? To increase bacterial count; often like x1000 (from millios to billions)

>>> What do you think it's done for you? I did not take it for any particular reason, so I was not expecting much. Most definetively, improved mood after 3 weeks.
