I heard Crohns inflames everything over time and you constantly must take meds that really mess with your system. 
May I ask what's a good site that will give me some more detail on mucos colitis other than the one you just posted? |
Kefir is a liquid type yogurt. However, the organisms it provides are more strains, and more of them than most yogurts.
In US, Lifeway is becoming common in many stores now. I get ours at Kroger's.

Theirs is lactose free and gluten free. It is very delicious and in many flavors too. I like the peach and cherry ones. It is like a smoothie. You could use it as a base (say the unflavored one) and add your own specific ingredients if you make smoothies at home. Lifeway has 12 different strains in it, whereas most yogurts have much less.
