Found something interesting

[Guest guest]

Hi everyone! I came across something tonight which may help post-

ops. I have seen a lot of posts mentioning " good Bacteria " and how

helpful it is after surgery especially if you are having problems

with diahrea. Imodium has just come out with something new (at least

I think it is new). It is called PROBIOTICA (a lemon flavored

chewable pill) which helps digestion by giving you " good bacteria "

(Lactobacillus Reuteri). You might want to ask your doctor or

nutritionist what they think. I'd be interested in hearing what you

think about this.

Take care,

Here is the information I got from their website (Imodium.com):
