I’d like to know which strains of gut flora are good and which are bad. Are the ones in Dannon yogurt the good ones?

Those are supposed to be some of the good ones. I've read that there are hundreds of good ones and that getting a handle on just what they all do will be quite a task. Maybe it's enough to know that replenishing the good ones helps to crowd out the bad ones.

Do you happen to know if yogurt contains a particular strain of gut bugs, or is it a blend? I know you can buy pro-biotic capsules. I wonder if those have a select blend of the good ones.
