Dannon DanActive Immunity  — 

I bought Danactive because of it's claim to help with immunity. Having two kids who are always bringing something home, I wanted something that would help. What I forgot is that this stuff is also supposed to "regulate the digest system." I drank one around 4pm one afternoon, by the next morning, I had a bit of the runs. My stomach is unsettled and bloated and I have to go to the dentist for a filling. NOT good. SOOO...I would say don't take this stuff if you tend to have a sensitive tummy, and if you do, don't plan on going anywhere. But I will say... it does indeed seem to help regulate the system. If you're blocked up a lot, this will help. lol

In response to victoria99's comment from Jan 29, 2009 at 7:02AM:

I only drank one. One a day, and I did give it a few days trial. I gave it a full packs worth, however many days that is, b/c I didn't want to waste it. our family's known for extra sensitive tummies. not saying it's a bad product... just not for everyone. Like every other product on the planet, it's not going to agree with everyone. thanks for the thoughts, though.

Joannes0 or perhaps it's Joanne,

I agree that it does stimulates the digestive system, although I never encountered the problems as you described. Perhaps, the outcome varies person to person. My daughter also takes it periodically and it doesn't bother her either. Sorry your experience wasn't what you'd hoped for. I on the other hand, have not been sick a day since I began taking it two years ago and I was formerly known to get sick every single winter. I drink them here and there. I might have one or two a day and then pick up a few a few days later or even four or five days later. How many did you drink in one day? I wonder if that may have effected the outcome? Thanks for sharing your review.

oooh, not good! I would think that since it contains probiotics to help regulate the digestive system there should be a warning that for a few days people new to probiotics may experience bloating and gas symptoms like you describe!
