What kind of yogurt is the best? I heard that women should eat yogurt every day because the bacteria in it helps prevent vaginal infections. I bought some yogurt and on the container it says there is active bacterial culture, "bifidus" (which is a lactic culture). It doesn't say anything about "acidophillus". Is lactic culture another name for lactobacillus? Someone please help me. Thank you.
