What's the difference between prebiotic and probiotic?

I don't know, but you can care, I do!!

Gram positive bacteria possess a thick cell wall containing many layers of peptidoglycan and teichoic acids. In contrast, Gram negative bacteria have a relatively thin cell wall consisting of a a few layers of peptidoglycan surrounded by an outer lipid membrane containing lipopolysaccharides and lipoproteins. Most bacteria have the Gram negative cell wall; only organisms from the Phyla Firmicutes and Actinobacteria (previously know as the or low G+C and high G+C Gram positive bacteria, respectively).

Prokaryotic cells are cells associated with Bacteria.  Eukaryotic cells are found in Plants and Animals.

eukarotic bacteria are unicellular; fungi can be multicellular whereas bacteria can not. Bacteria move themselves by means of a flagella unlike fungi which don't. Bacteria lack a nucleous and mitochondria unlike fungi. Many bacteria have differing cell walls from fungi. I believe the term used is peptidoglcoans, which describes the cell wall.

Procaryotes and eucaryotes are types of microorganisms which are classified based on their membranes.  The main difference between procaryotic and eucaryotic microorganism is that the latter has nucleus and membrane-bound organelles while the former does not.  Furthermore, procaryotes are mostly unicellular while eucaryotes are multicellular.

Most prokaryotes are bacteria, and the two terms are often treated as synonyms. Unicellular is another term for them.

Lactobacillus acidophilus performs many critical functions including inhibiting pathogenic organisms and preventing them from multiplying and colonizing, when present in sufficient numbers. \n\n \n\nBifidobacterium bifidum is a prominent probiotic microorganism that takes up residence primarily in the mucous membrane lining of the colon. B. bifidum prevents the colonization of invading pathogenic bacteria by attaching to the intestinal wall, crowding out and taking nutrients from these unfriendly bacteria and yeasts.\n\n \n\nLactobacillus rhamnosus is one of the most intensely studied probiotic strains. Its advantages in the treatment of gastrointestinal disorders are well documented. In laboratory animal studies, L. rhamnosus has been shown to inhibit the growth of colon tumors, especially when supplementation with L. rhamnosus is started before tumors were induced with a carcinogenic substance.\n\n \n\nLactobacillus salivarius has the unique ability to eradicate the dreaded Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) bacteria which is now known to be the major cause of peptic ulcers. The H. pylori microorganism interferes with the normal defenses against stomach acid and/or produces a toxin that contributes to peptic ulcer formation. \n\n \n\nBifidobacterium longum is an abundant organism found in the large intestine. B. longum has been found to reduce the frequency of gastrointestinal disorders (diarrhea, nausea, etc.) during antibiotic use. Furthermore, in the Cancer Research Journal, researchers report that dietary intake of B. longum significantly inhibits the development and growth of colon, liver and breast cancers in laboratory animal models.\n\n \n\nLactobacillus casei is reported to have the most potent protective activity against the potentially lethal Listeria bacteria than any other beneficial bacteria. Reports in the medical journal Cancer Letters show that L. casei not only shows an inhibiting activity in tumor cells but it also has a beneficial stimulating activity in normal cells.\n\n \n\nLactobacillus lactis acts as a natural antibiotic, which reduces the ability of pathogenic bacteria to grow and cause infection. It is especially effective against the bacteria Listeria monorytogenes, which causes severe food poisoning.

In bread and alcohol yeast is used for leavening and fermenting. Yogurt is cultured with different enzymes.

I suggest treating it internally with all natural Optiflora and OmegaGuard.\n\nOptiflora is a two product system which includes Probiotic (Bifidus & Acidophilus...microflora) + Prebiotic (FOS...food source for microflora).  Patented guaranteed delivery of 500 million microflora to intestines.\n\nOmegaGuard:  Provides a full spectrum of seven natural omega 3 fatty acids -- EPA, DHA, ALA and more.\n\nHope this is useful and feel free to contact me with questions.

Yes, the doctor gave you both and means for you to take both.They serve two different purposes. You should eat something with them and eating Yogurt would also be a good idea to prevent Thrush(yeast infection) from the antibiotic. You should take the antibiotic until it is all gone. Do not quit taking it just because you feel better.

EWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!\nAwesome though. lol lol\n\nWhat's the difference between a pizza and a yeast infection?\nYou eat the crust of the pizza.

fermentation in bacteria is anaerobic respiration, the only difference being the by-product.  In humans, what we make during anaerobic respiration is lactic acid (which gives you cramps).  in yeast, they make alcohol.  Since prokaryotic organisms have no mitochondria, anaerobic respiration just takes place in the cytoplasm.

It's milk that contains both both Bifidus and acidophilus bacteria..  (helps you digets certain foods, similar to what makes yogurt good for us)

I'll try to use a simple talk.\nAntibiotics work to kill bacteria. Bacteria are single-cell organisms. If bacteria make it past our immune systems and start reproducing inside our bodies, they cause disease. We want to kill the bacteria to eliminate the disease. \nAn antibiotic is a selective poison. It has been chosen so that it will kill the desired bacteria, but not the cells in your body. Each different type of antibiotic affects different bacteria in different ways. For example, an antibiotic might inhibit a bacterium's ability to turn glucose into energy, or its ability to construct its cell wall. When this happens, the bacterium dies instead of reproducing. At the same time, the antibiotic acts only on the bacterium's cell-wall-building mechanism, not on a normal cell's. Ok?

What are Live and Active Cultures? \nLive and active cultures are responsible for some of the potential benefits of yogurt. Cultures including Lactobacillus bulgaricus and Streptococcus thermophilus are added to milk to create what we call yogurt. Yoplait also adds Lactobacillus acidophilus to our yogurt. This is a third live and active culture. \n\nThese cultures are known as "live and active cultures." Yogurt is initially made with such cultures, but some yogurts are treated with heat after they are made. The heat processing destroys the cultures. Heat-treated yogurt doesn't taste any different, nor does it contain less calcium, protein or other nutrients, but it may not offer some of the health benefits that yogurt containing active cultures does.

For one thing, they differ greatly in size. The biggest viruses are only as large as the tiniest bacteria. \n\nAnother difference is their structure. Bacteria are complex compared to viruses. \n\nWhich brings us to the main difference between viruses and bacteria—the way they reproduce.\n\nBacteria contain the genetic blueprint (DNA) and all the tools (ribosomes, proteins, etc.) they need to reproduce themselves. \n\nViruses are moochers. They contain only a limited genetic blueprint and they don't have the necessary building tools. They have to invade other cells and hijack their cellular machinery to reproduce. Viruses invade by attaching to a cell and injecting their genes or by being swallowed up by the cell. \n\nCheck out the site below.
