Whether to go for those probiotics is up to you. I tend to avoid them as probiotics do not seem as useful to me as herbs, prebiotics, and foods from my experience with them. They are usually more costly too.@Tarmander Got my results yesterday and I have uploaded the data to MP.
Found a lot of interesting connections - deviating bacteria that correlates with 3 of my biggest issues (Fatigue/CFS, allergies and rosacea).
In one video Ken says that people with CFS should avoid probiotics that is lactic acid producers as it can increase bran fog. One of the probiotics I get as a "To add or increase" is a one that is lactic acid producer. But when I make some analysis of the probiotic it has some great benefits for my bacteria. How would you do? Would you test it as it seem to be very beneficial for my bacteria or would you avoid it as it is a lactic acid producer?
Which level of detail do you use? "Family, Genus, species and below" is set as default, but as I understand if you change to "Genus, species and below" you get a more detailed information. I am able to get suggestions even though I use "Genus, species and below" or even the finest one, maybe I should use that?
Human milk oligosaccharides is my number one thing to increase, is that one possible to get as a supplement (without breastfeeding, haha)?
I can find it here but I do not know if it is a serious product: Layer Origin - PureHMO Prebiotic - Human Milk Oligosaccharide (HMO 2-F
I tend to use the default setting on the recommendations but have toyed around a bit with going below family, genus, etc. Not sure I have gotten a ton of value out of it. There are so many options for tweaking the data you can get it to recommend almost anything. So stick with some parameters over a few tests and go from there.
You can definitely get HMO from amazon and other online retailers. I have bought that one you linked before and it was fine.
