Yeah, I ordered them right before they went outta stock on Amazon. I've also got the other 2 Richard Nikoley advocates, and 1 other called Align (got that one at Walgreens) that Dr. Ayers referenced in a comment [1]. I've been taking Probiotic 3 with every RS serving and rotating the other 3.
I've also been taking about 3 tablespoons of sauerkraut with every serving.
I also ordered Folate from Pure Encapsulations based on this comment [2]. I actually commented on this right after his post. I found the idea that folic acid potentially increased cancer risk to lend enough credence to the theory that it increases T regulatory cells, that I figured I'd add it in the protocol.
I'm the furtherest thing in the world from a scientist, but the puzzles pieces seemed to fit in my mind, so I bit.

http://mrheisenbug.wordpress.com. This most interesting thing here is if you look at the American Gut diagrams (of Tim and Jeff, Tim uses and advocates RS, Jeff is the founder of American Gut and advocates a high plant volume diet) in the post "Why Resistant Starch Is Probably Not Enough" you'll notice the proteobacteria band is very small compared to others.
If my Googling served me correctly, klebsiella pneumoniae is a Gammaproteobacteria [3], which would fall under the Proteobacteria [4] band in the American Gut reports. So it seems that these 2 examples are of people who have taken resistant starch and lowered the group of bacteria that includes KP, by increasing the other beneficial bacteria groups.
Anybody with more a scientific education able to chime in here? Has anybody here had an American Gut sample processed that they'd be willing to share?
