Re: Inulin and FOS experiences?

I had a lot of bloating, gas, when I took FOS (inulin) some months ago, so after a few days I stopped.
But after some stool tests results I received last week, showing a serious lack of flora and a possible pathogen overgrowth, my doc (who is also a freakin genious, and I don't say that often, due to the lack of competence of the mainstream medicine) prescribed me probiotics (120 billions bacterias a day) with FOS. I will start tonight, but I was already drinking kefir for 3 months.
As my gut transit has much improved thanks to the kefir, I hope I will get less problems with the FOS, and I will let you know how it goes. So I will drink kefir, and take the probiotics and FOS at the same time. Can't hurt but I'm afraid I will have some die-off reactions...

I'm glad my doc took the problem of bacterial overgrowth by the way of replenishing the beneficial ones, and let them compete. I was afraid of taking Antibiotics .
