Activia yogurt contains the probiotic Bifidobacterium lactis (Bifidus Regularis), which some studies have shown can improve digestive transit time and occasional constipation. However, other studies have found no effects. While some clinical trials found Activia improved IBS symptoms and gastrointestinal well-being, it was subject to lawsuits in 2008-2010 for exaggerated health claims not fully backed by studies. More research is still needed to establish proof of all of Activia's probiotic claims.

Probiotics are live micro-organisms and are often referred to as "friendly bacteria" or "good bacteria" as they support gut health, digestion and the immune system. 70% of all antibody-producing cells are located in the gut - working hard to prevent unwanted bacteria from proliferating.
Probiotics may be useful when the balance of "good" and "bad" bacteria in the bowel has been disrupted. This can happen for a number of reasons, including the use of medication, following illness, as a result of stress, travel to a foreign country and also as we get older. An imbalance of bowel flora can lead to unpleasant symptoms such as IBS, bloating, constipation and diarrhoea.
Probiotics are thought to have a positive impact on gut health, digestion and the immune system if we have an imbalance.

3 creative approaches to Influencer MarketingUpfluence
Chances are you’ve heard a lot about Influencer Marketing by now; its basic principles, its importance, and the ways to identify and contact influencers are clear to you. The consensus, however, is that there are only two ways to work with your influencers: pay for a sponsored article or post on their blogs and social media channels, or offer them free stuff so they can give it a try in front of their audiences.
These are very good ways to leverage your influencers’ networks and reach an audience you generally don’t have access to, but they’re certainly not the only ones. Here are 3 creative examples of what you can do to beef up your influencer marketing strategy, and win the blogosphere in an unexpected way that gives you the edge.
Probiotics are used to help get your gut working properly, and different probiotics may serve different functions. There is a reason for the constipation, and while probiotics might not cure constipation, it can certainly help relieve it as long as you can find the underlying issues.

4 TUFTS UNIVERSITY HEALTH & NUTRITION LETTER <www.tuftshealthletter.com> : NOVEMBER 2011
SpecialReport
Though “probiotics” have only recently passed the 8 million mark in Google hits, these “good bacte-
ria” have been touted for their health
benefits in many cultures for more than
a century. An early 20th-century scien-
tist, Russian biologist and Nobel Prize
winner Elie Metchnikoff, first studied
them after noticing that Bulgarians and
Russians lived exceptionally long lives
on diets including fermented dairy.
In the late 20th and early 21st cen-
tury, interest in probiotics has boomed.
From 1994 to 2003, US sales of prio-
botic supplements nearly tripled. Food
products containing probiotics have
proliferated throughout the supermar-
ket, including yogurt, fermented and
unfermented milk, miso, tempeh, juices
and soy beverages. Some of these foods
get their “good bacteria” naturally,
while others have the bacteria added in
processing.
It’s important to keep in mind that,
whether probiotics come in pill form or
added to foods, they are regulated as
foods, not medicines. As a result, when
probiotic health claims have gone too far
out on a limb, the manufacturers usually
run afoul of the Federal Trade Commis-
sion, which regulates false advertising,
not the Food and Drug Administration.
So what should you make of these
claims? Are probiotics right for you?
Friendly Bacteria
Though “bacteria” sounds like some-thing to stay far away from, the human body relies on “friendly”
bacteria for healthy operation. The
human gastrointestinal tract alone
contains more than 400 different bacte-
rial species. They work to maintain a
healthy gut lining; we depend on them
to produce vitamins and to suppress
bad bacteria. They’re also used to break
down food and produce the lactase en-
zyme necessary to digest milk. (People
who are lactose intolerant are deficient
in this enzyme.)
Probiotics, according to the World
Health Organization, are “live micro-
organisms, which, when administered
in adequate amounts, confer a health
benefit on the host.” There are four
main families of probiotics: Lactobacil-
lus and Bifidobacterium provide the
most commonly used “good bacteria,”
while others belong to the Saccharo-
myces (actually yeasts, a different type
of microorganism) and Streptococcus
groups. Despite the scary associations
with the term “Streptococcus,” a form
of that bacteria—Streptococcus ther-
mophilus—was the original probiotic,
a yogurt starter popularized by Metch-
nikoff in a book on longevity research,
The Prolongation of Life.
Within each family are individual
strains of microorganisms—the names
you might see when looking on the back
of a yogurt cup, for instance. Among
the more common are Lactobacillus
acidophilus, Bifidobacterium bifidum
and Lactobacillus reuteri. Strains of
Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium have
especially been highlighted in studies as
therapeutic for various gastrointest.
Irritable Bowel Syndrome is certainly not as bad as Crohn's, but nobody wants to suffer from it ever. We do know that irritable bowel syndrome is not a game, and what kind of probiotics are required to help heal from it. We must first go into what irritable bowel syndrome is.

Probiotics with documented health benefits give

overcome, writes DR. ANDERS HENRIKSSON.

Couples presenting to the infertility clinic- Do they really have infertility...Sujoy Dasgupta
Dr Sujoy Dasgupta presented the study on "Couples presenting to the infertility clinic- Do they really have infertility? – The unexplored stories of non-consummation" in the 13th Congress of the Asia Pacific Initiative on Reproduction (ASPIRE 2024) at Manila on 24 May, 2024.
Ethanol (CH3CH2OH), or beverage alcohol, is a two-carbon alcohol
that is rapidly distributed in the body and brain. Ethanol alters many
neurochemical systems and has rewarding and addictive properties. It
is the oldest recreational drug and likely contributes to more morbidity,
mortality, and public health costs than all illicit drugs combined. The
5th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders
(DSM-5) integrates alcohol abuse and alcohol dependence into a single
disorder called alcohol use disorder (AUD), with mild, moderate,
and severe subclassifications (American Psychiatric Association, 2013).
In the DSM-5, all types of substance abuse and dependence have been
combined into a single substance use disorder (SUD) on a continuum
from mild to severe. A diagnosis of AUD requires that at least two of
the 11 DSM-5 behaviors be present within a 12-month period (mild
AUD: 2–3 criteria; moderate AUD: 4–5 criteria; severe AUD: 6–11 criteria).
The four main behavioral effects of AUD are impaired control over
drinking, negative social consequences, risky use, and altered physiological
effects (tolerance, withdrawal). This chapter presents an overview
of the prevalence and harmful consequences of AUD in the U.S.,
the systemic nature of the disease, neurocircuitry and stages of AUD,
comorbidities, fetal alcohol spectrum disorders, genetic risk factors, and
pharmacotherapies for AUD.

The prostate is an exocrine gland of the male mammalian reproductive system
It is a walnut-sized gland that forms part of the male reproductive system and is located in front of the rectum and just below the urinary bladder
Function is to store and secrete a clear, slightly alkaline fluid that constitutes 10-30% of the volume of the seminal fluid that along with the spermatozoa, constitutes semen
A healthy human prostate measures (4cm-vertical, by 3cm-horizontal, 2cm ant-post ).
It surrounds the urethra just below the urinary bladder. It has anterior, median, posterior and two lateral lobes
It’s work is regulated by androgens which are responsible for male sex characteristics

Acute scrotum is a general term referring to an emergency condition affecting the contents or the wall of the scrotum.
There are a number of conditions that present acutely, predominantly with pain and/or swelling
A careful and detailed history and examination, and in some cases, investigations allow differentiation between these diagnoses. A prompt diagnosis is essential as the patient may require urgent surgical intervention
Testicular torsion refers to twisting of the spermatic cord, causing ischaemia of the testicle.
Testicular torsion results from inadequate fixation of the testis to the tunica vaginalis producing ischemia from reduced arterial inflow and venous outflow obstruction.
The prevalence of testicular torsion in adult patients hospitalized with acute scrotal pain is approximately 25 to 50 percent

2. Activia is one of the biggest
brands of probiotic in the
market nowadays.
This probiotic yogurt brand
contains Bifidus
Regularis, which is a
friendly bacteria that
naturally maintains the
balance of the digestive
system.
It claims to have significant
effects on the improvement
of slowed digestive transit.
3. Bifidus Regularis
-This is the marketing name
given to the probiotic
strain, Bifidobacterium
lactis, that was used for the
activia yogurt.
-It is an active probiotic
culture that can survive its
passage through the
digestive tract while
maintaining sufficient
number of live probiotics.
-Activia is the only probiotic
yogurt in the world which
contains Bifidus Regularis.
4. Helps the digestive
system to function in
optimal state
Promotes improvement
of digestive transit which
is slowed
Regulates the
gastrointestinal
environment
5. 1. Studies which show the ability of Bifidus
Regularis to survive passage along the
intestinal tract
The B. Lactis that is included in activia has
been discovered to last up to 90 minutes at the
stomach.
The amount of B. Lactis stays the same from
the point it enters the mouth up to the moment
it exits through feces.
6. 2. Clinical studies on activia’s claims of benefits
for occasional regularity
In a blind crossover study from Alimentary
Pharmacology & Therapeutics, researchers
found out that the intake of yogurt with Bifidus
strain can significantly improve digestive
transit time which is usually 40 hours or more
in women.
Four clinical trials have shown that transit time
for digestion can be improved with dairy
products containing Bifidus strain.
7. A clinical trial wherein 72 volunteers (36 females
and 36 males) are given fermented milk with B.
Lactis have statistically significant improved
colonic transit time of 20.6 % and sigmoid transit
time of 38.9%. In this trial, results are more
prominent in the female volunteers.
In other studies, activia has been proven to be
effective when taken thrice a day for two weeks.
However, there is a contradicting study wherein 19
out of 267 patients had no reported changes in the
quantity, consistency, or frequency of stools.
8. 3. Clinical trial for improved symptoms caused by
irritable bowel syndrome
According to a randomized controlled study, 267
people, who have been experiencing constipation
caused by IBS, have reported more frequent bowel
movements as well as lesser instances of bloating
and abdominal discomfort. This is due to the two
4oz activia servings per day that they consumed.
These significant results occurred after 3-6 weeks
of activia usage compared to those who consumed
yogurt which has been heat-treated.
9. 4. Research on activia’s impact on gastrointestinal
well-being
There have been a crossover, double blind,
randomized trial which studies activia’s effect on
the digestive symptoms, gastrointestinal well-
being, and health-related quality of life among
women.
There are 240 women who were recruited for the
study. These women have a weight range of (BMI,
18–30kg/m2) , a broad age range (ages 18–60
years), and bowel frequency (3–21 stools per
week) who have minor digestive disorders and
were typical consumers of dairy product.
10. In the end of the study, significant results in
gastrointestinal well-being and stool
consistency were observed to be higher in
women who have consumed activia than those
who did not (control group.)
11. In the years 2008-2010, when activia is just
starting all the hype for probiotics
yogurt, several lawsuits have been filed against
the company behind its advertising. The
lawsuits are pressed against the company for
its misleading and exaggerated advertisements
about the health benefits of the product when
in truth, it doesn’t really have backup studies
to prove them.
12. Probacto is the best probiotic that I have ever
run into. They use multiple strains and they are
spore forming so they can last while not
refrigerated. They do not use cheap bacteria, but
expensive ones such as B. Subtilis.
Probacto also contains prebiotics to help
stimulate the growth of beneficial bacteria in
your gut.
Probacto contains digestive enzymes to assist in
your digestion.
Probacto is enteric coated and made to be slow
release so it will release in your gut gradually.
13. Despite the controversies surrounding the
activia probiotic yogurt, it is still one of the
biggest names in probiotics yogurt market.
Additionally, there have been no dangerous
effects which are associated with it. So, giving
it a try would not probably cause harm.
However, more studies should be conducted
to establish proof for the claims of the activia
probiotic yogurt.
