probiotics is an herbal type pill that's supposed to help you with your health problem. For example, if you have diarrhea often, instead of taking immodium, or Lomotil, ( chemicals ) , you could take acidolphillis. Works for me. And the live and active cultures in yogurt can stem the tide of some unpleasant medical conditions.So, that's a type of pro-biotic.. Multi Probiotic tablets are basically made out of dried plants. They can help replace some of your body's natural healthy bacteria, that may be depleted b/c of poor diet, or from taking certain anti-biotics; or  from travelers tummy ;or from food poisoning, ; or from overall poor digestive health. In the bible, the Apostle Paul said to Timothy " Take a little wine for thy stomach's sake" .......b/c Timothy was a young man that always had stomach problems.......like I did when I was young.
