Antibiotics, probiotics, fasting question...

[MiahTay]

Well, I have been planning all month to start a juice fast on Dec. 26th for 21 days. Unfortunately on Monday had to run to the doc and will be finishing up a round of antibiotics on the 26th (which I HATE) anyway normally I would follow with a round of probiotics. So, my question is ... should I start probiotics with my fast (I think I've read somewhere this is a waste) or should I just do my fast for 21 days then take probiotics after the fast? Thoughts anyone???

Thanks!

I don't know why it would be a waste? I think taking probiotics after taking anti's is a good idea. ps i'm starting my fast on the 22nd! I'm doing 3 days on water then going to green smoothies until at least Jan 1st but might go till Easter. Good luck with your fast! :D

So... in your opinion I won't be undoing the good of probiotics by juice fasting with the use of enemas? I just don't want to be flushing them out as fast as I put them in.
