Title: Thumbs up for Lacto B Probiotic!
Post by: Susanne (urbantigers) on January 11, 2007, 13:42:30 PM

I finally got some Lacto B, as recommended by Gillian, to help with Jaffa's tummy problems.  He's had soft poos and a gurgling tummy for several months now, as well as occasional early morning vomiting.  The vet has excluded anything serious so I've just been experimenting with food.  I started him on the Lacto B last Friday and bingo - we have nice, firm sausage shaped poos at last!  :evillaugh:  I've not noticed much in the way of tummy rumbles lately either.  Remains to be seen about the vomiting as I think that may be something totally different but I'm delighted with the improvement in poos!   :yesss:

Where do you get this stuff from?  I think I might get some for Zephyr who has always had very loose movements!

Thanks I think I will get some.  I assume you just sprinkle it on their food do you.

Yes - you just mix it in - it seems to dissolve quickly and jaffa gobbles his food down as normal so it mustn't taste too bad!

Thanks Milly's Mum .... the P7P is £1.97 so it works out about the same.
