Lactobacillus acidophilus exists in fermented milk products such as yogurt and kefir but these sometimes do not have sufficiently high concentrations of the microbes to replenish the intestinal flora - which is why many prefer acidophilus supplements. |
While liquid acidophilus is the most economical way to get this probiotic, freeze-dried acidophilus powder can last longer because it is less sensitive to heat and improper storage. You can eat this pleasant-tasting powder directly , sprinkle it on yogurt or add it to a milk or fruit shake. |
Using acidophilus capsules is a very convenient way to supplement your diet with friendly bacteria. |
