While shopping for yogurt making sure it contains active cultures and probiotics.

Specific active cultures – For Activia by Dannon, for example, L.Bulgaricus(保加利亞乳桿菌)  , S.Thermophilus(嗜熱鏈球菌)  , and bifidobacterium(雙歧桿菌) 

Probiotics culture bifidus regularis(規則雙歧桿菌), which works to regulate your digestive system.   So if constipation is your challenge, this might be the probiotics for you.  

What is Bifidus Regularis?
Bifidus Actiregularis, Bifidus Regularis, Bifidus Digestivum, Bifidobacterium Lactis and its variants are marketing names generated by Danone (known in the United States of America as Dannon) for one of the specific bacteria it uses in its “Activia” range of yoghurt products
