I have been having serious constipation, gallbladder, steatorhea for the past few years as the chronic fatigue has discovered a new area of my body to attack. Prior to this I had perfect digestion for the first 35 yrs of my life.

Anyway, someone recommended a product called Progurt out of Australia. It's a yogurt that is based on human-derived strains - a lot of people on the MS websites say they have had good results. I got my first batch and it tastes pretty good ( I normally don't like yogurt).

Have you heard of it?

Hi Kurt,

Very interesting that Progurt, never heard of it. Saw on the internet that ppl with lyme respond well on it...but it is expensive.

Maybe you could try the gallbladder flush Vancerd did? Here is the link:

I myself use Biogard, that is a yoghurt with probiotics in it, but not that much as in the Progurt.
And I use the probiotic pearls from Enzymatic therapy. These two things help me already a lot. No constipation anymore.

If you have candida (in intestines), the Colloid Silver can help with that.

Thanks for that info Rock, I did try a liver flush a few months ago and it was miserable; I'll post on that other thread just to share my experience.

I'll check out the pearls as I have heard a lot about them and I wonder if I have Candida? I've had a stool sample done at Metametrix, but never received the results from that doc so I assumed it was normal, but you know how that can be...

You can ask the assistent of your doctor to sent you the results from the test.
Altough my stool test was negative for candida and my 'bacteria' were alright...I still had constipation (and most test are not reliable). Since I use the probiotic pearls that is over.

There is another probiotic what is tested in a study, and the results are very good for ppl with IBS.
Brand name: Align. See this link:

Cheryl (dr. T's assistent) told me that almost all ppl with CFS/ME/FM have candida. Especially when you have stool problems, like constipation or diarrhea.
