Some people say, "Boy howdy" and some people say, "Jiminies."

Jiminies.

Others say bless her/his little heart!

I assume this comment is addressed to me as you referenced my post.
I don't feel you have to defend all vegans either! :sigh:

my son's gastroenterologist recommended he take probiotic capsule every day. go figure.

I say howdy, boy! :jester:

You may be wondering what all the fuss is about. Why spend so much time on probiotics? Well, I just learn recently how important gut-bacteria is to health. I knew that it produced certain vitamins like a little B12 and.... it helps us digest fiber. But I just learned this year that gut-bacteria helps to modulate one's metabolism and immune system. Of course it needs to be complete and well balanced in order to do the best job possible. :)
