Do you know that you should feed your children yoghurt while taking antibiotics? We have all taken our children to the pediatrician and left with a prescription for antibiotics after being told that there is a bacterial infection of some sort, whether it is an ear infection; strep throat, which is a throat infection caused by Streptococcus bacteria; or a case of dysentery. Unfortunately, these types of infections hit children the hardest. Although antibiotics get rid of these pesky germs, antibiotics can cause side effects such as diarrhoea and yeast (fungal) infections. Fortunately, yoghurt contains probiotics, which may help to maintain a healthy balance of bacteria in our bodies and avoid bacterial imbalances during a course of antibiotics.
What is the role of good bacteria in our bodies?
-Provide a source of Vitamin K and B-complex vitamins.
-Help digest food.
-Create an unfavorable environment for harmful bacteria and yeast.
-Promote regular bowel movements.
-What happens when antibiotics attack our good bacteria?
Antibiotics do not differentiate between the good and bad bacteria, killing both. Good bacteria live in the intestines and oral cavity, serving many useful purposes. Eliminating beneficial bacteria in the gut and mouth can lead to problems such as diarrhoea, oral yeast infections and diaper rash in non-potty trained kids. The favourable bacteria keep the yeast levels in check by maintaining the proper natural balance of yeast in our bodies. So when the good bacteria are fewer in number, this creates an environment which allows more room for the yeast to feel “at home” and the yeast begins to multiply.
