As I have followed lactnet, I have noticed so many of you recommend acidophilus. Recently, I was treating a mother for a yeast infection of the breast and a mutual friend of of both of us asked me if it was OK to recommend acidophilus to her. I went along with it. I went into the health food store to see it for myself. Am I the only one who noticed how foul the acidophilus is? The next day the mother also complained about diarrhea it gave her. Has anyone else heard of that? What's wrong with suggesting to patients who are being treated for yeast infection to have a cup of yogurt everyday instead of acidophilus?
