What Is It?
The human digestive system is naturally inhabited by billions of bacteria called the intestinal microflora. You begin acquiring this internal ecosystem in infancy and by the time you’ve reached adulthood, there are as many as five hundred bacterial species in the colon alone, including bifidobacteria only available in Activia.

What It Does

Specialists at Dannon® selected Bifidus Regularis™ for
Activia® because it survives passage through the digestive
tract, arriving in the colon as a living culture. Once there, it plays
a beneficial role in your intestinal ecosystem*. Detailed information for health
care professionals.


Two Weeks Can Make a Difference Eating, as part of a balanced diet and healthy lifestyle, Activia every day for two weeks delivers enough Bifidus Regularis™ to help regulate your digestive system by helping with slow intestinal transit. And continuing to eat Activia will maintain that benefit. Try it.
