Do you have a recommendation for a soil-based probiotic? I've been looking recently and found them somewhat hard to research among all the lacto ones.

My research led me to Prescript-Assist: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0049NRWHS. Here's a study validating it for IBS patients: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16117982.

I also recommend a gut bacteria test like uBiome to see how it alters your composition. Do a before test, then another one after a month or two of use.

I would recommend against spending your money doing a uBiome tests. The research is showing that where you sample in the stool highly affects the results.
