Hello,
Does anyone eat yogurt? Or what it be a problem as far as constipation. Just wondering??
Patty

Hi Patty,
As far as I know, yogurt is a great AF friendly food, nice and soft and great for digestion. It has a wealth of probiotics, I ate it all the time while I had my fissure and still do...

Yes, yogurt with live active cultures is an excellent way to stay regular. There is a brand called Activia that is advertised as a way to promote regularity but I think any brand that has live cultures will work.
I don't eat yogurt (well, frozen yogurt!) but I do take Natrol beads which have several strains of gut-friendly bacteria. It is not only good for digestion but also for the immune system
Hope you have a good weekend, Patty.
Hugs!

i stay away from it.
before turning to macrobiotics, i did the activia and danon active little bottle. i loved the taste of both but for me the dairy was too much and i produced a lot of respiratory mucous.
plus the other reason was that it is loaded with bad sugars.

today i was doing my weekend grocery shopping at whole foods and saw a whole grain/vegan/nondairy new yogurt that is made from whole grains with all the cultures you need!!!!! comes in vanilla, berries, and strawberry.
bought a few but haven't tried it yet....will let you know!
:-)

I totally thought yogurt would be bad because it's a milk product? My grannie's always trying to get me to have yogurt because she says it's always good for the tummy, but I've been completely against it.
It doesn't cause you guys constipation or hardening of the stool?

It is the only dairy product I let myself have because of the cultures. You do want to make sure it isn't loaded with sugar though if you can.

Lecia i love your picture it looks unreal!

Thank you, Sunshine. My daughter took it in our back yard.

Yes, Lecia, you are a real princess!!!!
