What is the best super food probiotic vitamins?
I am looking for a probiotic formula that removes the toxins in your body completely. It contains more than 10 billion cells per capsule. But it is completely whole food based vitamins. It will cure with skin conditions, women hair loss, fungal nails, and much more. Where can I find these vitamins?

No such thing exists. Don’t get me wrong, Probiotics are great for the right purposes, but Probiotics don’t do what you’re asking for it to do (nor are there enough in whole foods to make a "whole food Probiotic complex"). If you had a whole food Probiotic (yogurt or sauerkraut powder, for example), you might get a few hundred million organisms in a pill… but it would take a few ounces of either of those to get 10 billion viable organisms (which could never fit into a pill).
Typically, Probiotics are grown in colonies that are in clean areas where the purity can be guaranteed… that doesn’t make them any more or less natural, but it makes them safer from the possibility of contamination.
With that being said, Probiotics don’t directly remove toxins from your system, but excessive levels of Probiotics can cause loose stools (a common misunderstanding that they flush your system). Probiotics don’t directly help with skin conditions, hair loss, or fungal nails either… they are the beneficial bacteria that live in the intestinal tract.
However, by supporting healthy digestion and helping with the assimilation of nutrients, the body may be more readily capable of dealing with those conditions. I see it similar to if you need to clean the house and make a big meal for the holidays, having someone else take care of the cleaning lets you focus on the meal so you can make the food easier (not to mention you’ll have more time and energy to make it better).
Now, with all of that being said, there are many higher quality Probiotics on the market that are readily available and well priced… just make sure the company has a good rating with either the GMP (Good Manufacturing Practices) or USP (U.S. Pharmacopoeia), as those are the main quality assurance organizations (USP is for the U.S., GMP is for the U.S. and worldwide).
Any answer you get as far as specific brands will simply be personal opinion (I can give you my opinion if you’d like)… there isn’t just one that outshines every other one in every way because different people have different needs (and even those that are the "best" for any given company will have some people that don’t respond well to it). I’ve personally taken several good Probiotics and have seen first-hand that some work better for me than others… but I know some others that have had different responses from the same products, too. ;-) Good luck and I hope I helped!

First of all, what are you looking for? Your question is a little confusing…
Are you looking for a probiotic that has 10 billion cells per capsule? Probiotics in and of themselves will not detox, but they can help. Vitamins are also very different thatn probiotics. They are essential nutrients that your body needs to function daily. There is also no "cure" for the conditions that you listed but a good diet and good multi-vitamin can help. There is also no product on the market that will COMPLETELY detox your system or heal you of anything. Most people seem to think that you just take this magic pill for 30 days or whatever and boom! You’re all squeaky clean and done! That is simply not true.
Your body works wonders at cleaning itself out, but if you continue to put junk in (pesticides, chemicals, etc) then your body can’t do it’s job properly. Just try cleaning your house while someone is shoveling more stuff inside! It just doesn’t work. If you are interested in detoxing then you need to do more reasearch and find out what you want to begin detoxing from. Heavy metals, chemicals, etc.
The first thing you should consider is changing your diet. You should be eating a diet of mostly (organic where available) vegetables and fruits, lean meats once or twice a week and absolutely NO sugar, anything artificial, etc. Essentially all "junk" food. Once you’ve stoped putting junk into your body then you can begin on getting deeper. Once you decide what you want to detox from you can go from there. Talk to someone at your local health food store or something to get an idea of what you want to do, but this will not be a quick fix by any means. It all depends on your toxic load, weight, metabolism and a whole host of other factors! The word "detox" is thrown around so much, but you simply can’t detox overnight! You didn’t get these diseases or problems overnight, you simply cannot fix them overnight!
As far as whole foods supplements go, some really good brands to stick with are New Chapter or Megafood. All of their products are 100% whole food vitamins, minearls, herbs and probiotics meaning all of that nutrition is coming from food, not made in a lab somewhere! Be aware though, they are quite pricey.
In the end however, nothing can replace a good diet. No pill or supplement can replace real food.

Probiotics are not vitamins but bacteria, the good bacteria that is essential in the intestine to help digest the food and remove the waste. The more different kind of bacteria in the capsule the better, as we have over 40 different kinds of bacteria in the intestines. Vitamins are supplements, nutrients that one does not get from the food by not eating variety of food. None of the above is a body cleanser, but essential properties that the body needs. You can buy both in most health food and drug stores.
