Hi @rosie60, and welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. It is good to see you comment here.
I see @aa2025 has given you a great explanation answering your question asking about probiotics. I thought I’d chime in and provide a couple links that may help.
- What are probiotics? https://www.mayoclinichealthsystem.org/hometown-health/speaking-of-health/an-introduction-to-probiotics
- Probiotics and prebiotics: What you should know https://www.mayoclinic.org/healthy-lifestyle/nutrition-and-healthy-eating/expert-answers/probiotics/faq-20058065
If you are comfortable, would you describe some about your situation so others have a better idea how to comment? What prompted you to join Mayo Clinic Connect?

@jlharsh I see this group is still active - wow! it is January 5, 2026. I had a colon resection a year and a quarter ago and am ok but more bloating and constipation that before. My doctor suggested the FODMAP diet which has helped plus magnesium glycinate at night and perhaps Psyllium husk too. I wonder about excellent functional doctors and gut health, plus probably related skin and other issues. Thank you! LSM
