Gastroenterologist (Pediatric) Questions Yogurt

Is yogurt helpful in treating colic problems in kids?

Is it healthy to give your my child yogurt? She has colic issues, and I feel like the probiotics would really help her.

This could be true if it were raw milk yogurt. You can however, give your child probiotics. Or you can give them fresh raw fruits and veggies. Especially apples and blueberries.
If it has live cultures. You can always use drops like Gerber soothe
Yogurt with active probiotics can sometimes help the normal bacteria in a child's gut that aids digestion and helps keep abnormal bacteria out. However if they are sensitive to dairy, this may not help.
