You ****ing stupid woman, you don't have a clue. You find me any yogurt on
the market that doesn't have live cultures. and Lactobacillus is only one of
quite a few different genera for probiotic effects. Also, flavoring yogurt
does not kill the bacteria, so you don't have to use "the plain kind."

Again, you are ****ing stupid. Cultured milk is better than the pills because
the bacteria are already active, not dormant.

You should STFU about stuff you don't know about, like probiotics. That icky
tasting UHT milk that your family likes has one good use, making cultured
probiotic stuff. You can inoculate it with whatever strains you wish. I have
a glass of it every morning, followed by a large glass of cold water. It
tastes good because I flavor and sweeten it, but even if I didn't, it's not
horrible, and you chase it right away. Some of your intestinal ailments might
be improved if you did it as well, but you won't because you're stupid. Prove
me incorrect.
