It your doctor prescribes antibiotics for a bacterial throat infection, eat yogurt, such as Nancy's yogurt or Kefir from the health food store. The commercial yogurt in your grocery store does not have enough of the friendly bacteria in it to replace the one's killed by the antibiotics. The antibiotic kills the good and bad bacteria. The the bad bacteria will cause an overgrowth and you will be open to other infections. You need the good bacteria to keep the bad bacteria under control.
