You have to replace the friendly flora that the baddies and the antibiotics are killing. That means drinking 1/2 cup of kefir 2x a day for awhile.

THanks Shelley,

but wouldn"t tthat give me worse diarrhea, since kefire is a milk based product?

the milk has been converted. Probiotics always give one a little bit of diarrhea, but usually the calcium in the kefir makes up for it.

Last night I ate a hamburger and fries and drank 2 glasses
of Sangria. Aa couple hours later, I ate a chocolate chip muffin.
Before bed, I drank a half cup kefir.
About 4 hours later, I had some burning type pain and so much
diahrea in a matter of 10 minutes (some of it bloody). Does this
mean that it was a bacterial and/or parasite infection or too
much fat in the meal for my body to handle ??
Finally, it stopped and I went back to bed feeling a little weak.
This morning, I drank lots of water and a half cup of kefir.
I'm wondering what I should eat next?
Thanks Shelley

Stick to the BRAT diet until you don't see any blood or feel any discomfort. In the future, when you want to overeat and eat tons of tough-to-digest fun foods late at night, take a Digestaway with them or Eater's Digest tea.
