Paphos People

Now I'm sure someone has asked the question about where you can get Activia yogurt (the stuff that's supposed to help your guts ). Well, they had it in Carrefour on Saturday - I've only just remembered, so thought I'd better post it before I forgot again I've tried a search, but can't find it

Jean Paps sell it as well Strawberry (yuk) & plain helps the natural digestive transit, says she who is now a REGULAR Marj

Have they started selling Actimal yet

I use to take that in the UK to help my IBS

If not I suppose I could try Yuk instead

Ah, this could be where I'm getting mixed up - maybe it was Actimel that somebody was asking for - it's an age thing you know getting things mixed up. I'll keep my eyes open when out shopping again. Sorry

No need to apologise Jean, it was something I asked for on the other forum some 6-9 months ago so very understandable if you forgot, as I did

Rather than pay silly prices for tiny yoghurt drinks with made-up ingredient names, why don't you just eat natural live yoghurt of the type Cyprus does so well? It will save you lots of money and has the same benefits to the digestive system.

Graham its the bit that helps the-- natural digestive transit-- that's the worry Cy mustn't add any. Marj

I find myself agreeing with Graham. Natural live yogurt is much cheaper and just as effective as the expensive stuff they fool you into buying.

If you are taken in by "Bifidous Digestivous" and other such made up rubbish you must have more money than sense. IMHO of course.

........and if you had a go at making your own yoghurt, you would save even more money - and it's even better for you, coz you know just what's in it.

Yeh but Pam its a right clart on. do you make yours in a flask over night. Marj

Hi Marj,

No I don't make yoghurt in a flask, to be honest I haven't made any for a long time. What I used to do was simply heat a pint of milk, then add a spoonful of plain yoghurt, place in a pyrex bowl, cover with cling film, and place in the airing cupboard overnight.

I got the best tasting yoghurt using sterilised milk, (not sure if you can get it anymore).

I even used to make my own bread, and without the aid of a breadmaker!
