Priobiotics used to be a mysterious subject, but now food manufacturers are adding them to lots of foods as yet another marketing ploy. Seriously, if you want to add probiotics to your daily regimen, you don't need to spend a lot of money on pre-packaged foods. Just purchase a quality probiotic formula from your local health food store and take a capsule or two a day.

Most probiotics come from dairy sources, but did you know that they can also be found as Homeostatic Soil Organisms. I've been taking a combination formula called Primal Defense for several years, and I wouldn't go a day without it.

Here's a product description from the manufacturer:
Primal Defense™ is a natural blend of 12 species of Probiotics and Homeostatic™ Soil Organisms (HSOs), utilizing the Poten-Zyme™ process and delivered within a whole food matrix. The HSO™ probiotic blend in Primal Defense may help support normal gastrointestinal balance of good and potentially harmful bacteria to help maintain a balanced, healthy internal environment, and maximize the benefits of a healthy diet by supporting normal absorption and assimilation of nutrients in the gut.
