Food on Cape

I am starting Cape tonight for the first time - 1500 mg twice a day . I see several posts on the form saying that people take their tablets with yogurt. I asked the Chemo nurse this morning if I was allowed to have live yogurts, and she said definitely no but I thought all yogurts have live bacteria in.? I have a load sitting in the fridge, but now I darent eat them . I know my gut is particularly vulnerable, so perhaps I will just use pots of custard instead.
Any help gratefully received.

Hi, I hat is strange about the he yogurt. I am starting Capecitabine tomorrow and when I asked about food was given no restrictions. I love yogurt and kefir so also have lots in fridge. I haven’t read anything about this but was just told to take tablets 30 minutes after eating. Maybe check with your consultant to find out more. All the best!
