Thanks you all for your recent comments on your experiences with Activia, the new yogurt product from Dannon. The yogurt contains a proprietary probiotic bacteria, Bifidus Regularis, which is supposed to help keep people "regular."

Probiotics are getting a lot of attention these days for their health benefits. Dannon has been doing a lot of research into probiotics and their benefits, and are introducing another new yogurt product along the same vein as Activia. DanActive, which is a drink, contains the L. Casei Defensis bacteria, which is supposed to help with human beings' immunity.

I haven't tried the product yet, but if I see it in the markets, I'll be sure to pick one up to give it a taste test.

Same as Actimel in the EU.

Delicious. Addictive. Can't start my day without one. The vanilla flavor is gross, though. Big problem is only Whole Foods sells it (so far).
