Anyone have recommendations for which probiotics are the best ones to buy?
I always get confused while looking at all the various options, and this seems like a good place to find someone who’s done a lot of research.

He is not a medical doctor, he is a chiropractor.
Antidotally, I recently started taking a probiotic and have had great improvements in digestive health. I also have a chronic digestive disease.
Ritual recently launched a probiotic which includes the two most studied strains, LGG and BB-12. Our formulation and technology is very much driven by science. Maybe it’s right for you.
A fun example is that we did not have the concept of a cart at the very beginning. You don't need a cart when you only have one product, so why spend development time building that? My most recent work has been performance because that was worth spending time on now. Before that, I worked on allowing customers to update their subscriptions via an email magic link for the launch of Synbiotic+ (the probiotic). We then look at our data to see how effective our efforts were in supporting the hypothesis which initially kicked off the work. Hope that helps!
Also, nicer grocery stores typically have a refrigerated probiotics section, and those are typically good brands as well (Garden of Life is one). Generally, shelf stable probiotics are less potent and varied in cultures than ones requiring refrigeration.
It's worth pointing out that the actual biotic payload is exactly the same between the two products, only the dosage is different.
In other words, taking two packets of the regular unflavored powder should deliver the same payload as one packet of the rx-only "extra-strength" powder.
I suspect the only reason the higher strength product exists, and is rx-only, is so that it can be covered by health insurance for some people.
Neither of these are bad for you, just don't be obese
> kombucha with sugar
Every bottle of kombucha I have ever seen has at most 16g of non-added sugar from fruits, the same as a banana
> fermented vegetables like kimchi have shown to increase prostate adenocarcinoma
Fake / trash science. More studies say the opposite than agree with this
Every nutritional authority in the world disagrees.

Right, sugar from a drink and banana are identical, even though only one has fiber. What mental gymnastics!

Why didn't you cite them?
Since you did not link to any literature backing up your claim, I want to share this paper[0] as a counterpoint. Kimchi has been found to have active ANTI-cancerous effects, opposite to your claim.
Please change my mind with referenced material.

Vegetables, but not pickled vegetables, are negatively associated with the risk of breast cancer

Your study was in vitro and given the authors' background and affiliation was most likely made to promote agricultural production.
