As a paediatrician in Nigeria, we certainly use probiotics such as Floranorm in managing gastroenteritis in children, based on the principle that Floranorm, which contains non-pathogenic organisms, will populate the gut and compete with pathogens. I have also published a case report on how yoghurt can be used to address dental caries, and in the course of that work, I came across articles suggesting that yoghurt may also help address certain diseases. On that note, yoghurt may help reduce gut Gram-negative bacteria and toxic plasma bacterial lipopolysaccharides if we apply the same principle. Cheese may confer some benefit if it contains live cultures, but plain milk most likely will not.
