recently i was feeling very bloated in my stomach, especially about an hour after a meal (a feeling like i need to burp but can't), so i thought it might be something with my 'friendly' bacteria as i don't eat yoghurt or anything like that. today bought yakult (wich contains lactobacillus casei shirota only) to try. i wonder is that enough or should i try something else? i don't want to take probiotic pills cause they make me very badly bloated. however i've read many good things about yakult, gonna start it tomorrow.
or is it better to take a drink that contains different bacterias in one, what's the difference between them?

Did you ever try kefir? It's loaded with the "friendly bacteria" and most supermarket's sell it. It's usually in the organic section near the organic milk and yogurts. It's an excellent probiotic drink.:p

i used to drink it sometimes back home before i started having digestive problems, however we don't have it here in the uk. gonna go for holiday back in a few days so will try it. today had my first yakult and was feeling so bad whole day, like my stomach would explode, and food was sitting in it for hours. yet not sure whether that was yakult or my lunch which was some vegetables (green beans, carrots & babycorn) with noodles. never cooked this before and never took yakult before so don't know what caused it.
is it possible that a probiotic can make you so badly bloated and keep food in stomach for that long?
