Kept strong, this bacterial army prevents a range of illnesses. This book contains an A-to-Z listing of illnesses and disorders that can be prevented or corrected with proper probiotic supplementation. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Good for Cronh's patients Very helpful and much needed. Patients with IBD UC CD will find this book very useful. If you have on-going Ulcers, this is a good book. Rating:  - Good on probiotics, not good otherwiseEasy to read, usually clear, with many references (but not numbered) and an index, this book gives a complete story of the development of friendly bacteria (probiotics) as oral supplements.

Rating: - Well written book on the subjectI looks much like the previous book she wrote. I would like to have seen more details on the research and the production of the probiotics. The first part is devoted to the digestive system,nutrition, microbiology and probiotic supplements. She focusses on the quality of the probiotics available. The second part is about treating disorders with probiotics. Not only gasto-intestinal disorders are discussed. It's an easy to read book on the subject.
