Wikipedia is a good jumping off point for information on probiotics: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Probiotic

For a much more in depth look you may want to try this book: Handbook of Probiotics and Prebiotics

Thanks. That book's priced like a university text book, wow! I'll check it out nonetheless though. – Jonathon Watney Nov 10 at 2:26

There are some other cheaper options as well. Just do a search on amazon for probiotics and skip over the diet handbooks. – Kris♦ Nov 10 at 15:17

@Kris, can you personally vouch for any of those books? I'm more interested in a recommendation from experience. – Jonathon Watney Nov 10 at 16:55
