CS kills virtually all bacteria it comes into contact with. CS does not affect any bacterea in a healthy gut due to being absorbed into the blood stream in the stomach and being immobalized by the stool. It will kill any bacteria in the gut when taken in large amounts, and if the gut is full of liquids so it can have mobility. Marshall
