Acidophilus milk has been around for decades. So has buttermilk. They
both contain lactobacillus. But Julie doesn't believe in drinking milk.
She doesn't think children should drink milk... energy drinks, yes,
milk, no. (I wonder what she thinks breasts are for. Shut up, Sheldon!
LOL)

She probably has some unidentified intolerance to it. WHATEVER! Yogurt
and pills isn't the only way to get lactobacillus into your system.
Sour cream contains lactobacillus. Given she likes so much "Mexican"
food, using sour cream shouldn't have been a hardship.

As others have said, the nurse was probably just stuck in an infinite "I
don't like it loop" and wanted to get the hell out of there.

I don't know if they do or they don't. And this is the first that I have
heard of acidophilus milk. Lemme look this up. The first mention I see of
acidophilus milk is 1983. And it does say that buttermilk has it. But both
of those things are moot points since the very Dr. I was seeing at the time
told me to stop drinking milk when I was 16. It was giving me serious
stomach issues and causing acne. My face cleared up after I stopped
drinking it and my stomach got some better. I was still eating some cheese
because I had not made the connection yet that it was all dairy that was
causing me a problem and of course there were other problematic foods that I
was still eating at that point in time.

But... None of these foods are usually enough to help to balance out an
antibiotic. You'd have to consume tons of them. Much easier when taking a
pill. Plus, I was being treated for a sinus infection at the time and dairy
products are best avoided with sinus problems as they are mucous producing.

I do not eat *any* dairy, even. I have a severe dislike for sour cream and
even when I did eat dairy, I wouldn't eat anything with it in there. And
true Mexican food does not use sour cream.

All of you here are missing the point. To tell someone to eat yogurt when
taking an antibiotic to prevent a yeast infection is just plain poor medical
advice.

That was standard advice back in 1983.

It's certainly standard advice for probiotics. Yogurt is all the rage,
I'm getting sick of the John Stamos and Jamie Lee Curtis commercials
about yogurt. I'd eat if if I had to, but not that sugar laden stuff.

I often cook with plain yogurt. Sometimes I substitute plain yogurt for
sour cream. It depends on what I have on hand. And hey, yes, it's got
active cultures. Lactobacillus. This stuff was around years before
they started bandying about the term "probiotics" in advertising.

Don't most of them come with 6 active cultures?

What in the hell is your problem? Other people get into thread drift. Why
can't I? And it seems that everyone is missing the point here. This has
absolutely nothing to do with what I like and dislike and everything to do
with giving bad medical advice. I was not the only one to point out here
that not all yogurt is the same.

Nobody is missing any point. We all know you can't/won't eat this or
that and you wouldn't eat the yogurt because you said you didn't
*like* it, not because it wasn't good for you. Even way back in 1983,
we knew which yogurt had live cultures (plain Danon) and which didn't
because we knew how to read labels. Someone telling you to eat
cottage cheese was an obvious blow off.
