Activia

i love it!!! lol not for it's amazing bathroom properties, cause it does nothing for me, but because of the taste. i hate really sweet things. activia is the only yogurt i've found that tastes slightly sour to me and i adore it!

Then you would love Greek yogurt!
 
Honestly, I think it's junk and it made me horribly sick. I have an intestinal issue, btw. but I can eat regular yoplait, dannon, etc and I LOVE greek yogurt! Those have probiotics which are really good for you. IDK why activia makes me and others I know so ill, but I wont get near it and advise against it. When I asked my GI Dr. if it was ok to eat yogurt (trying to get probiotics) he was like anything but Activia lol! :laughing:
 
I'm surprised at all the posters who have problems eating Activia. I never knew so many people have problems with it. I try to eat one every day and I don't have any problems.
 
Tried it, didn't care for the texture...but eat Greek yogurt every day and LOVE it!
 

I tried it once. Had it with breakfast while on the road (only yogurt they had) and by the time we got to the hotel at night I was spending way too much time in the bathroom. We were in Charleston for our 25th anniversary and I was in no condition to be more than a few feet from the bathroom for 24 hours of that.

Now, I don't know if it was just a stomach bug and it was just a coincidence but I have heard of too many people having the same issue and I was also told by my doctor that "they don't tell you it makes you regular in 2 weeks for nothing, that is how long it takes a lot of people to get their bodies used to it". I will never try it again.
 
I eat Activia a couple times a week. It's never bothered me at all. I'm not crazy about yogurt, but like Activia best of all the brands I've tried.
 
I have never tried Activia, but when my mom was enduring chemo treatments, she was advised to eat it. She ate it often during that time and never had a problem with it. She always had a very sensitive stomach too. She recommended it to everyone. She ate the regular version of Activia - not the lite version.

OMG, Activia KILLED my stomach! I don't know what the heck they put in that stuff, but I have NO problem taking Culturelle, a probiotic, or eating any other kind of yogurt, but Activia made me double over. Glad to know I'm not alone with that.

I LOVE Culturelle, the lactose-free version especially. Makes a huge difference for me, and I do have IBS.
 
I don't like it at all....I've tried it a few times, DBF tried it as well, we both hated it. lol I have some Greek yogurt in my fridge right now, just bought it for the first time.....hopefully I like it, I'd like to have that for bfast every morning after I work out. :)
 
Op, here. Just threw out the last of the Activia. My poor tummy. Never EVER again will I eat that stuff.
 
I never had a problem with Activia. It worked great for me!

Same here.. Long-time IBS sufferer - on the "constipation" side.. (I know - TMI - LOL..) But this worked wonders for me - and I loved all the different flavors.. I ate it every day for about 2 years - and then all of a sudden it just stopped working for me..:( Big disappointment, but I have found other things that work just as well now, so I'm fine..:thumbsup2

OP: Sorry it caused problems for you.. If by chance you took it for IBS issues, maybe Align (a pill) would work better.. It's not something I can take (makes me very, very sick), but for some people it's great..:)
