When asked why he wrote The Probiotic Solution, Mark said, "There
is a need to bring the science of probiotics to the people, so that they
can better
their
lives. Life is about balance, and I believe this book will help people
balance themselves from the inside out. If one is not balanced on the inside,
then
it is impossible to be balanced on the outside. The Probiotic Solution shows both
the importance of a balanced intestinal tract and how to balance the probiotics
in it."
When asked how one should live life, Mark replied, “With courtesy,
integrity, perseverance, self-control, and indomitable spirit. God, however
you view Him,
gives all of these gifts to us, if we look and believe."
