From what I've read it's best to take a probiotic before but with a meal, i.e. take your probiotic right before your first bite. This gets it straight to the intestines and because there's food there the sensitive bacteria doesn't get neutralized by the stomach acid. I take mine right before breakfast, but I don't think there's necessarily a 'right' time of day to take them. I know that some probiotics have different directions on teh package though, such as taking them before bed. Whole Health MD has a pretty good page on probiotics (just click on that and search for 'probiotics' in the search box). HTH!
