Activia yogurt

[Eve]

Does anyone know if Activia yogurt is available on the Infinity? If not, I've got to work on Plan B.

Thanks!

No, it's not available. It's actually some off brand that I don't recognize.

That was 3 years ago however. I know what you mean. I've been taking probiotics for years.

I dont know if they work but Centrum has a Probiotics thing out now, maybe that's worth lookin into?

The only choice you have in yogurt is the flavor. There is not a selection of brands or types.

 

If you need this type of item then I'd suggest a probiotic suppliment. You could bring your own yogurt on board but I'm not sure how well that would work as the "fridges" in the cabins are really just beverage coolers and might not keep your items cold enough to keep them fresh more than a day or so.

Yes, no and maybe

 

On infinity in S. America in January 2012 no

On Connie in Caribbean in Feb 2012, yes only in Aqua Spa

On Connie TA, yes until supply ran out, then no

 

Agree....don't count on it being there

There is usually a plain unsweetened yogurt as well as a brand of the fruit flavored ones. Talking probiotics is the way to go. You can buy capsules or packets which can be stirred into a drink or yogurt. Some types need to be refridgerated but many do not. You might even decided that this is a better option for you on a daily basis. Might save you money over the expensive yogurt!

Perhaps try to bring some and keep it in the beverage cooler/pseudo-

refrigerator set-up. If it is not cold enough, transfer some ice from the ice bucket into the cooler. You probably only need a 6-pack or so of the yogurt, and that will easily fit in there.

In April on the Century it was available in the Spa Cafe.

 

Those little bottles you can drink.

I thank you for that comment. I'll have one a day! We are on Century in a week.

I appreciate all of the responses, and the fact that no one made fun of my post! If anyone could recommend a probiotic powder or tablet that would be great. I'm new to this stuff so I don't know where or what to look for.

I must be getting old because when I see Jamie lee Curtis (activia pitch lady) I used to think wow pretty girl, now I think about going to the bathroom.

[reedprincess]

Ha Ha Ha dolittle!!! It's not getting old - it's effective marketing!

Also - keep in mind for those who may be thinking about bringing their yogurt - Jamie Lee says right there in the commercial - they recommend eating it 3 times a day for maximum benefits - that adds up pretty darn quick when bringing it on the cruise (or at home for that matter!)

A probiotic pill or powder would be much easier to pack and carry for a trip.

My gastro suggested that I use Align, but I have used others such as Peals Probiotic. My preference now is to drink Kefir daily.

Isn't it amazing how many people need the probiotics now? I also need it and I'm wondering why you never heard of this years ago? Perhaps because of all the "crud" they put in food nowadays.

There is a product(several in fact) by Renew Life that does not have to be kept cold. It is truly amazing as is their Digest More. The two of them together help digest all of your food and keep your stomach from all those little nasty things that can happen. Even if probiotics are in yogurt, their potency is affected. These pills ensure that your trip is memorable for all the right reasons. Furthermore, George's Aloe comes in tablets too, but that is for inflammation of the stomach.:cool::cool:

Yep, it's all the crud in food. My nutritionist says we need probiotics due to the over use of antibiotics, which kill the natural flora in our digestive systems. And it's not just antibiotics we injest ourselves in pill form, it's also the ones injected into our foods before we consume them. Pretty gross when you think about it!
