Hey, I am checking out iherb.com, and I'm wondering what kind of probiotic do you take (I'm considering switching from what I'm currently on), and what kind of MSM supplement?

My mom gave me some MSM crystals in a different container so I'm trying to find out what brand it is...

Right now I take GI-Pro (probiotics from Mannatech) and Natural Factors: Acidophilus & Bifidus.

Did you know that the LGG strain of probiotics has been found to be the best for CF? You might think of adding that to your Probiotic regimine. :)

I have found that defusing the essential oils; Ginger (-gets rid of old mucus) Eucalyptus, and Breathe ( is made from DoTerra) at night I NEVER have to break up junk in my lungs anymore!!! I take Kefir and Kombucha to put live probotics in my body (I learned from www.culturedfoodlife.com) I now take a really awesome Vitality vitamin from DoTerra that combined with the other things listed has changed my life so drastically I feel I needed to share with you! God bless
