probiotics is not a medicine. it's good bacteria.

besides yoghurt, other fermented food like kimchi, sauerkraut, tempe and even fu yu (fermented soy tofu). eating all this in ur diet is only to maintain the good bacteria culture in ur body.

changing ur diet to less processed food will help. like what Micksolo did. u can also try GAPS (Gut and Psychology Syndrome--IBS also considered as GAPS problem) diet. read more at: http://www.gapsdiet.com/ or http://www.keeperofthehome.org/2010/02/the...r-doing-it.html

drinking yoghurt only will not help u coz the yoghurt available in our supermarkets do not have enough probiotics count to help severe cases like IBS ald. that's why it's more advisable to take probiotic supplements (esply the kind that needs to be refridgerated coz they're live cultures). at least for 2-3mths.

u can ask ur doctor if he sells it or any pharmacy and get a good one.

***another thing i want to highlight is that our doctors always like to prescribe antibiotics when we get mild illnesses like cough and flu.

do u notice that after taking antibiotics u still get sick easily afterwards?

this is because we didn't take good bacteria to replace the ones killed by the antibiotics. we often forget that antibiotics kill both good and bad bacteria. that's why it's VERY VERY VERY IMPORTANT to tell everyone to replace their good bacteria (taking high count probiotics) during and after a course of antibiotics. i alw tell my friends this.
