Yeast infections and yogurt

Definition

   


Information

   

Question:

Does yogurt help prevent yeast infections?

Answer:

Several studies have suggested that one cup of yogurt a day (only the kind that has acidophilus bacteria) may reduce the frequency of vaginal yeast infections. Check the label for the statement "contains live cultures" or similar text.
