@sueinmn I have had too many antibiotics over the years mainly for uti but have ibs-d so it is difficult to stop ecoli entering bladder; but re the subject, I remember people used to chew on parsley, hopefully this will help the person asking for suggestions but about the probiotics - I am an internet checker and one site says they work, another they don't, on many sites; some say it has not been proven also that some probiotics can cause diarrhea! Talk about too much information!
