VSL#3 would be my choice for this situation. 450 billion bugs. 10X > all other probiotics, 25 publications showing effective.

I like VSL#3 has 10X bugs than all others and 25 published studies including clinical trials showing it works.
VSL#3 is pretty intense because it has 450 billion bugs/serving, 10X more than others.
VSL#3 has been shown to help UC in many clinical studies.
