Probiotic Drinks

[Eastender]

Hi Anyone out there been taking these Probiotic drinks for any lengh of time? You know the ones Flora pro activ, muller Vitality. I did try once for a week, but gave it up. Now I am thinking of going back on them. Do they actually do you any good??

I use actimel when my tum is upset or if I have had to take antibiotics and find it useful, but don't stay on it all the time or feel that I need to

My other half drinks one every day and has done it for over a year. I can't see any difference in him and he doesn't feel it either but he likes it as he's not one for eating breakfast and it lines his stomach nicely and fills him up.

According to a food technologist who I was talking to, the acid in your stomach kills the live bacteria before it can do any good.

Apparently a bio yoghurt a day is much better for you

I have a bowl of bio-live yogurt every morning, it�s supposed to sort out the bacteria in your stomach and prevent bloating (when combined with a healthy diet!) and I think it works� (plus it tastes delicious!)
