Activia for IBS

Has any one tried Activia to relieve the symptoms of IBS?. If so have you succeeded?. In addition, does any body feel pressure in your middle/bottom part of the abdomen and it makes you want to go pee.. or feel like you have to go pee?.. Thanks

Re: Activia for IBS

I have the mixed type of IBS and I think Activia has been very helpful. Between the Activia, fiber supplements (and high fiber cereal) and additional Lactobacilli supplements my IBS has been the best its been over the last year than its been in the whole previous 20 years!

Re: Activia for IBS

I have started on the Activia this week on day 5 now and my stomach is certainly not as bloated today as is has been, I also take prebio7 friendly bacteria, maybe it's a combination of them both. I'll report back next week as they say give it 2 weeks.

Re: Activia for IBS

I have been using Activia, but my symptoms come and go so I don't know if its my diet or something else! I also exercise occassionally. Can this affect you stomach? This bloating this is very bothersoem and sometimes painful!!!!
