	Yes, I eat a lot of yogurt, especially the ones that are high in live active cultures. Check either at the health food store or at the health food section in your grocery store. Also, I drink a Danactive everyday for the probiotic -- they have worked really well for me! Carol Remicade - will have my 19th infusion on November 1.

	If you're interested in the good bacteria angle such as what yogurt has, you might have better luck with an actual probiotic. Yogurt is good but it doesn't contain nearly enough bacteria as a probiotic does. I eat yogurt on occasion - it seems almost all yogurts have strawberries in them and I'm allergic to strawberries! lol But when I can find the ones without strawberries, it's great. :) ^{@--->--SHERRY--<---@} ^{Left sided Uc -'92 - Colazal, Canasa, 6mp, Prilosec, Biotin, Forvia} ^{Secondary Reynauds Syndrome - '04 - Norvasc} ^{Fibromyalgia - '06} ^{PLEASE HELP HEALINGWELL CONTINUE TO HELP OTHERS BY CLICKING HERE: DONATE} ^{@--->--Moderator for Allergies/Asthma and Co-moderator for UC--<---@} http://www.myspace.com/82595818 Back to Top

	Not at all for me....yogurt gives me a lot of gas discomfort. I take probiotics instead. q HeatherStatus:mini flare June 23* 6asacol daily+ Salofalk (tapered every 3rd night) ~diagnosed January 1989 UC (proctosigmoiditis) ~5ASA: Asacol + Salofalk enemas (increase for flares tapered to maintenance) ~Bentylol (dicyclomine) 20mg as needed ~vitamins/minerals ~Probiotic 2 (Natural Factors Protec) + 1 (Primadophilus Reuteri) at bedtime ~Natural Factors Multi Digestive Enzymes with supper ~Ranitidine,Pariet (reflux) Effexor XR 75mg; Pulmicort/Airomir (asthma) ~URSO for PSC (or PBC) 500mg X 2 daily (LFTs back to NORMAL!!) My doc's logic.. "TREAT (FROM)BOTH ENDS" worth it !!! Back to Top

	I occasionally eat yogurt. I don't think it helps or hurts me personally. I do take a probiotic as well. Tabitha (Tab) 100mg Azathioprine, 2 Fibercon, Colazal-6 a day, Acidopholis Pearls, Prilosec OTC http://www.healingwell.com/donate Co-Moderator UC Forum Back to Top
