A Healthy microbiome can be restored more quickly when taking specific supplements recommended by Dr. Kellman. We take the guess work out by providing a summary of the recommended Microbiome Diet Supplements. Dr. Kellman’s recommendations are all listed below.
Links directly to the products are included to show you the exact products Dr. Kellman recommends and where they can be purchased!
The following list provides options in random order for each category. Typically you will only need one product in each category. For example, you only need to be taking one type of digestive enzymes. Experiment to see which brand works best for you.

Below Dr. Kellman discusses how he sees the Microbiome as the future of Medicine
Note: In the book the Microbiome Diet Dr. Kellman lists that he has his own product line of supplements, similar to what is listed above. I was unable to locate the site that was listed in the book, www.raphaelkellman.com. I was redirected to www.kellmancenter.com, which is Dr. Kellman’s clinic in New York. I was unable to find supplements listed for sale on this site. If you prefer taking Dr. Kellman’s brand of product, I recommend you call or email his office.

THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU for taking the trouble to sort this out for us because that part of the book is very frustrating to me and, going by the Amazon reviews, also to a number of others. Now I have a clear list I can use as I decide which supplements to order. I have saved the link to your list on my iPad home screen and also posted it on the book’s Amazon review page in response to one of the three star reviews.
Marsanne,
You’re so welcome!! I am very glad to hear it simplified things for you 🙂
