Each of us has more than 1,000 different types of bacteria that live in our digestive tracts, helping us to break down food and absorb nutrients. But when we take antibiotics (medicines that are designed to kill destructive illness-causing bacteria) they can also kill the healthy bacteria that help us digest. Many of the patients who take antibiotics report suffering from diarrhea or some other form of gastrointestinal distress.
As a result, Probiotics are commonly prescribed to “repopulate” the digestive tract with “good” bacteria. A natural source of probiotics is yogurt. The beneficial bacteria found in yogurts can be just as good for the digestive system as taking probiotic supplements.
