[rosacea] Re: yeast, citrus, yogurt, other flaring foods

Hi Ellen,

>From the following, "Probiotics are defined as live microorganisms,
including Lactobacillus species, Bifidobacterium species and yeasts,
that may beneficially affect the host upon ingestion by improving the
balance of the intestinal microflora"...

http://www.pdrhealth.com/drug_info/nmdrugprofiles/nutsupdrugs/pro_0034.shtml

So to answer your question, yes, but acidophilus is really just one of
several bacteria in the genus Lactobacillus.

Wkipedia also has a great page on probiotics:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Probiotic

You can usually find a broad spectrum probiotic supplement that
contains several members of the genuses (or is that geni?)
lactobacillus, bifidobacterium, and yeasts at your local healthfood
store. They are usually refrigerated to ensure the probiotics remain
live.

Hope this helps...

Dan
