As it goes to show, with NYTimes article, yogurt does make you regular, but it doesn't boost your immune system. But in a Chinese/Asian medicinology --- a good poo gives great day, and a great day leads to great mood which gives you a better health. We believe that the wholesomeness of health is a lot more important than the singularity of it, that's why we also think that pain killers are bad for you.
Personally, I do think it's wrong for a big corp like Dannon to imply that Activia can be beneficial to health and had all these oversized women on TV talking about their bloatiness in public, but shame on those who don't google for fact! It is indeed wrong to make people believe that yogurt can be medicinal, but it is even a greater sin to be so lazy and believe in whatever you believe on teevee.
There's a saying that "money is the root to all evil", but actually it's that "ignorance is the root of all evil", because ignorance people start to believe in things that aren't proven, they follow what others say without questioning it and they end up bombing a whole country because of a hunch. If it isn't the root of all evil, I don't know what is.
So Dannon, well done on the art of deception, or PR. I'm sure you and yours alike will find better ways in wording and more convincing bloated individuals to sell their product.
