Microbial flora refers to the microorganisms that live in your gastrointestinal tract. They are called 'friendly' microbes because they help you digest your food. There are many foods that contain these microorganisms that consist of bacteria and fungus-like yeast. These include yogurt with active cultures, kefir, which is a milder form of yogurt, raw sauerkraut, and kim chee, which is a Korean spicy fermented cabbage dish that also has other vegetables in it.
