I just started my first day this morning and had some of this activia. Everything was fine and tasted fine until about 4 hours after. I am now sitting at home from work, freezing with the chills and achy all over like my body is trying to fight something. Nothing in my system to get this and have been home all weekend and week without being out to possible contract something.

Should I continue the therapuetic 1 or 2 per day to keep this going and has anyone ever felt this after they started?

Thanks for the help.

Hi LM,
Welcome to HealingWell! :-)
I must say, I find it very odd these symptoms are from the Activia. I would say you're getting the flu. People get sick all the time without any reason they can think of.
Activia is supposed to boost your immune system... I would keep eating at least 1 a day.
Good luck! Hope you feel better soon.

Thanks for the fast reply. i was hoping to hear some other news because i cannot have the FLU. I work in Surgical Sales and am in the OR all day long. Sheesh. OK, time to hunker down.
I will wait to see if others reply as well but i appreciate your thoughts.

It's doubtful that the Activia is causing you to have flu-like symptoms.  You probably have a flu-like illness totally unrelated to the yogurt.  That being said...I'm sorry to hear you feel so cruddy!
