Good Digestion
Your digestive system performs two vital functions: absorbing nutrients and providing a barrier against potentially harmful substances and microorganisms. It's important to your health to keep this system functioning well.
Physical and Emotional Issues
Slow intestinal transit is a source of daily discomfort for a large proportion of the population and the physical and physiological consequences on the quality of life should not be underestimated. Bloating, heaviness, difficult and painful defecation are all troublesome symptoms when they become chronic.10

What You Can Do
There are a number of ways to help your digestive system and help improve intestinal transit. Among these are enriching your diet with fiber (at least 25 to 30 grams per day), drinking plenty of water) and getting adequate exercise. Eating probiotic foods like Activia® can help, too. Two weeks of eating Activia every day, as part of a balanced diet and healthy lifestyle has been clinically proven to help regulate your digestive system, by helping with slow intestinal transit - and continuing to eat it will help maintain that benefit.
