Get Cultured

Mmm, wouldn't you do just about anything to snack on some yummy live and active cultures right now? Okay we agree: It's not the most appetizing of terms. But the truth is that these organisms, found in many yogurts and yogurt products, may do wonders for the digestive system and immune system and may even help prevent osteoporosis. What's more, these cultures allow folks with mild lactose intolerance to enjoy yogurt without the possible discomfort from consuming dairy. Dannon's new Activia yogurt claims to regulate the digestive tract within just two weeks' of daily consumption. Next time you're in the dairy aisle, pick up any yogurt with the National Yogurt Association's Live & Active Cultures seal, and enjoy an extra healthy boost.
