http://www.medicinenet.com/script/main/art.asp?articlekey=55129Dr. Ohhira's probiotic strain is another brand that has that bifidus infantis, but it's fairly pricey: http://www.iherb.com/ProductDetails.aspx?c=1&pid=3620&at=0 But at least it doesn't have crap like blue dye #2 like Align does.
I don't suffer from diarrhea but find probiotics helpful with gas, bloating and a general bowel disruption feeling. I would be taking Dr. Ohhira's brand if it wasn't so expensive.
