If she is on heavy antibiotics i would buy her some good quality probiotic. Antibiotics can **** up you digestive and immune system in ways that are not easy to fix, and create problems that are NOT apparent were caused by antibiotics.
For example i had to use antibiotics for a prolongued period of time (3-4 weeks) some years ago because of a gum and wisdom tooth infection, after that i was no longer the same healthwise, weeks later i started getting seborrheic dematitis, and in the months after that developed several food intolerances. And the food intolerances made me create a lot of mucus which made me start having chronic sinus infection
So that is how i ***** up my health with antibiotics. years later after a lot of money and reading and trial and error im much much better, but still not 100%, i still get some dermatitis flare ups every now and then.
I personally used the mercola probiotics and they are great, if you can ferment vegetables and make sauerkraut even better (and cheaper!)
Thanks for the suggestion. I had her buy Now Probiotic 10, 50 billion while she had mastitis. I think it definitely helped, and it only makes sense to replace good intestinal flora that you kill off. Bought it based on information I found through Labdoor. Mercola does provide quality stuff, I'll check into it for next time!
I love fermented foods. Big fan of sauerkraut and kimchi. I wouldn't be able to get her to choke it down to save her life, though! Maybe if Krispy Kreme donuts were prebiotic...
