My mom read a book about probiatoics...and it's helped my aunt in other problems. the probiotic she got me is dairy free, but it contains

lacto bacillus (5 billion cfu...i have no idea what that means)
bifidobacterium bifidum (20 billion cfu)
lactoballus bulgaricus (5 billion cfu)

I have no idea what CFU is...or what the other stuff is. it apparently replaces the bad bacteria with the good, or something like that, I haven't read the whole thing yet....but if anyone knows anything about it, i would apperciate the info!

Thanks
PS, haven't posted for a while, hope all is well with everyone
