Activia Yogurt Question/Daily Cals, Sugars, Carbs?

Don't worry about eating Activia specifically. All yogurt have probiotics, and if you want more you can take Acidophillus or other probiotics. It's a rip off in my opinion, and I've heard other G-I docs on TV say the same. In your intestinal tract (and vajajay too) there's good and bad bacteria. The balance is precarious and anything we eat, stress, whatever, can tip the balance. It also keeps the Ph balanced. By addiing extra probiotics like acidopholus you tip the scale back to normal.  But the "extra" amt in the yogurt may not be worth the $$ and extra cals, carbs,fat if you can find something better. Ok, I know y'all are probably sick of me singing the praises Miralax (Miracle Lax) but it really helps when things get .....tough. Other products work too, but I have recommended Miralax to probably a dozen people on this forum after they have tried lots of other products, and I'm pretty sure it worked for every one of them. It was Rx until about a yr ago. Also, I take Fiber Choice chewables Wt management (4 gr fiber and 8 cals a tab) normally and Miralax on occassion (although you can take Miralaz close to daily, or daily for limited time). I get constipated from meds I take for spinal cord injuries and chronic pain. A few yrs ago, after trying practically everything else, my doc gave me a script. Disolved tasteless in my coffee, and all was well. Once I get my SLeeve, I'll really be constipated!! OOOOhhhhh, watch out. Miralax don't fail me now!! LOL Hope things get moving soon for ya. I feel your pain... Hugs, Kahlua

Okay...Angel, Kahlua, and others say that Miralax is the cure...so I am just gonna go ahead and get some. I spent all night cramping from my laxative pills, laying in bed with my heating pad on high...I can't do this anymore. I plan on picking up some Miralax and taking it every other day until things straighten out. Thank you everyone for your replies!!! K~
