Watch for the live cultures, though -- you want to get fairly serious appearing yogurt, rather than anything pre-mixed, sweetened, or creamy. (Dannon's classic Fruit on the Bottom is live, AFAIK, but something like, say, Yoplait isn't.)
Reminds me of a line spoken by an Eastern-European genius in some short story: "It is true that I too have to piss, but for entirely different reasons."
What's funny is that as a relatively new parent I know this because acidopholus is one of the things that you can add to formula when you think that the tyke. Parenting has given me a whole new set of facts. And I feel DesCartes like that I have unlearned an awful lot of pop culture in exchange for info like this.....
Also good for yeast infections.

Yogurt is tasty and healthy!!!!! Of course South Indians are partial to it.

I wish I'd known. My nagging mother always tells me to eat yogurt during and after a cycle of antibiotics, and I do. What a good son.

Yeah, though most mark it pretty clearly on the package. I'm strictly soy yogurt, and Wildwood and Silk both have live cultures.

A lot of lactose-intolerant people can eat a moderate amount of real yogurt - the bacteria eat most of it. Of course, YMMV.
