Lactobacillus crispatus, a probiotic available in formulations like Crispact, appears to block E. coli’s ability to make kidney stones. Antibiotics also appear to reduce Lactobacillus crispatus, which appears to help E. coli to later grow more unfettered.

Men, this probiotic is currently used by women to help with a healthy vaginal tract, but shouldn’t hurt men.

Does every major organ in the human body have its own unique micro-biome?

This is the first time I ever thought about that possibility.

I’ve had one kidney stone; I don’t ever want another. I’ll have to look into this.

Dang. There are half a dozen lactobacillus species in the kefir I buy, but this is not one of them.

It might be possible to use the Crispact or similar probiotic product to make yogurt for cheap high dosing. There are YouTube videos for how to make yogurt from probiotics.

I have had problems with kidney stones for over 10 years.

In my experience, what has so far worked to slow formation of stones is a change in my vitamins minerals (more magnesium and iodine)

I also have been drinking straight lemon juice (citrates) in larger amounts later in the day. One reads often about citrates helping in kidney stone formation

I believe acidic lemon juice also helps the gut have a lower pH, (and possibly in renal system also) which helps eliminate coliforms / E.Coli, which can’t exist in acidic environments.

I’m only one person, so these comments do not represent any kind of replicable study, but It has worked for me over the last 18 months.

I used crispatus and this happened:

Just kidding, I haven't used it.
