Prevent many diseases, avoid gas and other digestive problems, avoid allergies, get more nutrients from foods, all by taking lots of probiotics. With all the anti-biotics we have, and food poisoning, most of us could use some. Alcoholic drinks also ruin your bacteria levels and types. Growing your own probiotics could be the fountain of youth.

You won't know if you pills are any good until they prove themselves by growing. And you need large amounts to do the job right.


Buy pills with a variety of species. There is a good yeast you need too. Google it.

You need food from them. Milk works good, but I want something cheaper. Boil it to kill all the harmful ones. Cool fast to body temperature, place somewhere warm, on top and in back of fridge, and add your probiotics, from pill or whatever.

Incubate about 12-24 hours, or until it gets kind of thick. Then finish incubating in the fridge. Eat, and leave some for your next batch.

Unfortunately, the ratios of each species will change, so you may still need some fresh starter pills every few rounds, unless you grow each species individually. I'll grow each of my pills separately.


Now I want someone to tell me what stuff I should add to my mixture. I think I should add everything that gives me gas, to promote bacteria that break that stuff down. I'm thinking ground cooked oatmeal, whey protein, and a cheap lactose source, and water, instead of milk. Might need some vitamins in there too.

There is the cheap lactose. I have lots of whey, which is giving me gas right now. Oats are cheap. So I just got to figure out if there are any other nutrients needed. I got more multi-vitamins than I need, so I'll just grind one up and put it in.

Creative, but.. gah. =p NOW guarantees a minimum potency until expiry date for most of their probiotics by adding a surplus. Another company called RPN has an enteric coated probiotic product called Gut Health which according to them is suspended in olive oil allowed the organmis to multiply in the capsule.
