Can feeding baby yogurt help prevent diarrhea?
A “Good” bacteria in the intestine is a plus for a baby. Too much “bad” bacteria can cause diarrhea. Findings suggest that if a baby has some yogurt in her diet on a regular basis, it may help keep harmful bacteria from growing, thus helping to prevent diarrhea. You don’t have to feed her large amounts of yogurt to get this benefit. A few teaspoons of plain (not flavored or sweetened) yogurt might be beneficial for her.
