    Bifidobacterium is a genus of Gram-positive, non-motile, often branched anaerobic bacteria inhabiting the Gastrointestinal tract and Vagina

    So what they're saying is it's as good for you to go down on your special lady as it is to drink a Yakult.

    That stuff is bad for ya.

    Derek Acorah lost his job on "Most Haunted" for advertising probiotic yoghurt in breach of his contract.
    See, that's what you get for dabbling in the yakult.

    But... but... organic mineral water has been proven to be more enhancerable in my digestive tract than the GM water you get from the taps.

    Organic is a completely different argument. I can see the logic in not wanting to eat food that has antibiotics feed to it on a regular basis.

    Bottled water over tap water in general is nothing more than paranoid fears

    Any person with even a scrap of scientific knowledge would know it's a load of ****e anyway. Bifidus actiregularis, in that ad for yogurt that helps the digestive transit, is a made up name. Want to get your bowels working? Eat more fibre.

    Then the probiotics ad, pictures of "bad" bacteria bouncing off good bacteria? Oh man...
