Any plans for probiotics?

I’d understand if you’re avoiding making them. Just wanted to check. I’ve been reading about some anaerobic strains that look quite promising.
What they were answering

What strains are you considering? Guess they’ll have to be endosporic to be heat stable. There’s some fascinating studies on effects of heat-killed strains of L. plantarum and M. vaccae as well. French company has some very promising results with living Christensenella species. Feeling impatient so guess will join the visibiome club instead of waiting several years for them...

Visbiome is good. It's the original formula for VSL#3, and the ones that hold the patent. There was a falling out there, and the patent holder pulled the rights from VSL#3 and created Visbiome. So when you see all the studies about VSL#3 that happened years ago, that's not the current VSL#3 formula. It's actually the Visbiome one.
For ours, we are working on a few to start. Some of the strains are Lactobacillus. Some are Lactococcus. I will have to look into the Mycobacterium vaccae one. Not sure that was on our radar.
