VSL #3 may be purchased online and at local pharmacies. While a prescription isn’t required, VSL #3 is intended for use under supervision of a medical professional. In general, dietary probiotics supplement (but don’t replace) prescription drug therapy for serious conditions such as ulcerative colitis. Check out http://www.vsl3.com for more information.

Where can I purchase VSL#3 ? I have had ulcerative colitis several times and it cleared up in about 3 months using ENTOCORT, but if the VSL #3 capsules help, that sounds better. A Health Food store perhaps?

To be allowed to ferment, vegetables must be completely submerged in liquid. As for the amount of salt, it is a matter of personal taste. Hint: The more salt added, the crispier the vegetable will become, but it will also increase the fermenting period. For more information on fermentation click here.
