Yogurt has good bacteria (probiotics) but not in the numbers that may be needed for someone with IBD. You would have to eat gallons of it to equal the dosage of a good OTC probiotic. PB4 (a member of this forum) recommended Primadophilius Reuteri to me a few months ago (5 Billion CFU). I would recommend fiber supplements for regularity. Metamucil has eliminated my diarrhea.
