  If you can find something similar that doesn’t have alfalfa added to it, then it would be better. Otherwise, this is probably okay for now.
  
  On a side note, I find it interesting that it contains probiotics…

  I don’t think they would hurt anything. I mean they sound nice, but they probably don’t really do anything.
