the human gut contains beneficial and non-beneficial microorganisms (bacteria, to be precise) but b. infantis serves to add strength to the good bacteria which would in turn help with digestion.<\/p>\n<p>recent reports show that the beneficial properties of probiotic strains are dependent on the types of strains, themselves.<\/p>\n<p>according to <a href=\"https:\/\/academic.oup.com\/femsle\/article\/334\/1\/1\/579191\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><em>microbiology letters<\/em><\/a>, the possible probiotic advantages \u201ccan only be attributed to the strain or strains tested, and not to the species or the whole group of lactic acid bacteria or other probiotics.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3>microcrystalline cellulose<\/h3>\n<p>microcrystalline cellulose is a name for refined wood pulp that can be used for a number of things, including an anti-caking agent, an emulsifier, and a fat substitute.<\/p>\n<p>a fat substitute is a type of food that acts like fat, with the same functions, chemical and physical characteristics, and stability of normal, everyday fat but with fewer calories per gram.<\/p>\n<p>this ingredient serves to help eliminate fat by replacing it with a fat substitute so that your body would still have fat to work with but with less of the danger that comes with regular fat.<\/p>\n<h3>hypromellose<\/h3>\n<p>hypromellose is short for hydroxypropyl methylcellulose and is a partly synthetic, inert polymer which can be used as eye drops or an excipient in oral medications.<\/p>\n<p>an excipient is a bulking agent, used as a backup for more active ingredients in drugs whose amounts are too small. it can also help drug absorption and solubility. it serves to help the supplement dissolve in your system in order to work faster.<\/p>\n<h3>propyl gallate<\/h3>\n<p>this is an ester formed from ethanol and gallic acid. it acts as an antioxidant, which serves to eliminate the effect of oxidation in the system.<\/p>\n<p>oxidation produces free radicals which lead to chain reactions that may damage cells in the human body. it has beneficial health effects. the introduction of this into the system has advantages that cannot be overlooked.<\/p>\n<h3>magnesium stearate<\/h3>\n<p>magnesium stearate is a compound made up of two stearic acids and magnesium.<\/p>\n<p>it also works as an excipient, meaning that it enhances the therapeutic effects of the most active ingredient(s) in the drug, as well as aiding the swallowing of drugs and its easy movement down the intestinal tract.<\/p>\n<h3>sodium caseinate<\/h3>\n<p>it is a complex name for casein, a type of protein found in the milk of mammals. it represents 80% of the protein in cow milk and 60% of the protein in human milk.<\/p>\n<h3>trisodium citrate dihydrate<\/h3>\n<p>this can be used to resist changes in the ph levels as an acidity regulator or a buffering agent. it can also be used as a preservative, flavor, or food additive.<\/p>\n<div class=\"text-muted text-uppercase jump-target\" style=\"margin-bottom: -30px;margin-top: 40px;font-size: 0.85em;

probiotic is specifically used at night because this is when the digestive tract is the least active. this is supposed to make it easier for probiotics to take effect and replenish healthy gut bacteria.<\/p>\r\n<p>peptiva is said to be manufactured using a \u201cproprietary tri-phase dehydration process.\u201d this is to guarantee the product\u2019s potency through the expiration date on the package.<\/p>\r\n<h2>peptiva products<\/h2>\r\n<p>peptiva offers a couple of different probiotic supplements, including peptiva advanced digestive relief, peptiva + sleep support, and peptiva vegetarian digestive enzymes + prodigest.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n<p>peptiva advanced digestive relief is a daily probiotic that apparently boosts your overall health. they ensure potency stays the same over time. the supplement also contains a \"stress relief and calming matrix.\"\u00a0<\/p>\r\n<p>peptiva + sleep support is a probiotic meant to be consumed at night. apparently, this formula helps you gain digestive balance while you sleep. valerian root and melatonin are also included to help you fall asleep faster.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n<p>peptiva vegetarian digestive enzymes + prodigest says it is an \"advanced formula\" that can help you get relief from boating and unpleasant gas. the formula contains 17 digestive enzymes and some herbs for maximum results.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n<h2>peptiva ingredients<\/h2>\r\n<p>although peptiva offers three different kinds of supplements, many of the bacteria strains and ingredients are the same.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n<p>to gain a better understanding of how this product works to replenish healthy gut bacteria, we need to examine the ingredients in peptiva, which include the following:<\/p>\r\n<h3>lactobacillus acidophilus<\/h3>\r\n<p>also called l. acidophilus, this is a form of good bacteria and is the most commonly used probiotic. it assists by breaking down food in the intestine and restoring a healthy bacteria balance.<\/p>\r\n<h3>bifidobacterium bifidum<\/h3>\r\n<p>this is one of the most common probiotics found in humans and mammals. according to <em><a

good\/beneficial bacteria in the gut.<\/p>\r\n<h3>bifidobacterium animalis<\/h3>\r\n<p>bifidobacterium animalis is found in the large intestines of humans and other mammals. it is also commonly found in fermented dairy products such as milk and yogurt. this bacteria may help relieve symptoms of constipation and other gastrointestinal issues.<\/p>\r\n<h3>lactobacillus rhamnosus<\/h3>\r\n<p>lactobacillus rhamnosus is a probiotic strain often used in yogurt and dairy products, as well as supplements. it is a subspecies of l. casei, and helps prevent the growth of bad bacteria, and may help restore your gut.<\/p>\r\n<h3>lactobacillus paracasei<\/h3>\r\n<p>according to \"<em><a

pathophysiology<\/a><\/em>,\" this probiotic strain is often used to balance and restore normal gut flora. lactobacillus paracasei is found in kefir and yogurt.<\/p>\r\n<h3>gamma-aminobutyric acid<\/h3>\r\n<p>some people take gamma-aminobutyric acid (gaba) to elevate mood and enhance sleep, according to\u00a0<em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/pmc4594160\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">frontiers in psychology<\/a>.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\r\n<h3>valerian root extract<\/h3>\r\n<p>according to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pubmed\/22863505\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><em>acta medica portuguesa<\/em><\/a>, valerian root may help you fall asleep faster and even improve sleep quality.<\/p>\r\n<h3>melatonin<\/h3>\r\n<p>melatonin is a hormone that is found naturally in the human body. it can also be made synthetically in a laboratory. it helps the body regulate its sleep and wake cycles.<\/p>\r\n<p>the body produces more melatonin when it is dark, which gets the body ready for sleep.<\/p>\r\n<h3>prodigest<\/h3>\r\n<p>according to the official website, \"prodigest\u00ae is a patented combination of 2 standardized ingredients: a lipophilic co2 extract of ginger roots (zingiber officinale rosc.) and a unique extract of artichoke leaves (cynara

alternatives<\/h2>\r\n<p>you can find some alternatives to peptiva online and in health supplement stores or drugstores. if you are specifically interested in supplements that contain probiotics and sleep aids, focus on products that use similar ingredients to peptiva capsules.<\/p>\r\n<p>also, keep in mind that different products contain different ingredient portions. therefore it is helpful to examine the supplement\u2019s label to determine how much of each ingredient is used and how potent the formula is.<\/p>\r\n<p>for those only interested in digestive support, there is peptiva advanced digestive relief. this is a little different from the peptiva plus sleep support formula.<\/p>\r\n<p>it is still taken 30-60 minutes before bedtime but is not claimed to help with more restful sleep. however, it is claimed to do the following:<\/p>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li>replenish healthy gut bacteria<\/li>\r\n<li>alleviate bloating and discomfort<\/li>\r\n<li>help with irregularity<\/li>\r\n<li>promote

work?<\/h2>\r\n<p>with clinically-backed ingredients to back up the claims made by peptiva, we can't deny that the product could be beneficial to your digestive health. it may even play a role in

 behind activia, claims that they use all-natural ingredients to resolve minor digestive discomforts, which isn't a lie. however, if you're looking for weight loss, that's not what you'll find in the majority of cases.\r\n\r\nwe chose to set our research team on this popular brand to check out the science and determine if activia is any different from other probiotic-based products.\r\n<h2>what is activia?<\/h2>\r\n<img class=\"img-responsive\" src=\"\/\/www.digitopmedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/what-is-activia.jpg\" alt=\"what is activia\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" \/>\r\n\r\nso, what exactly is activia? produced by danone, activia stands out as a distinctive yogurt brand that goes beyond just being a dairy product. unlike many traditional yogurts that house two common strains of ferments, activia takes pride in its unique blend, boasting five different strains. this variety is headlined by its exclusive bifidus strain, scientifically known as bifidobacterium animalis lactis dn-173 010\/cncm i-2494. this particular strain is the powerhouse behind activia's celebrated benefits.\r\n\r\nfurthermore, what truly sets activia apart is its dedication to promoting gut health. consuming activia can potentially lead to a reduced frequency of minor digestive discomforts. and when we talk about these discomforts, we're referring to those occasional bouts of bloating, unsettling gas, abdominal pain, and that uneasy rumbling sensation. the catch, however, is that to reap these benefits, one must be diligent. it's recommended to indulge in activia twice daily over a span of two weeks, ensuring that it's paired with a balanced diet and a wholesome lifestyle.\r\n\r\nnow, diving into its composition, it's important to note that activia is a probiotic yogurt. probiotics, often hailed as the \"good bacteria,\" have been the subject of extensive research over the years, with scientists keen on unraveling their myriad health benefits. these beneficial bacteria play a pivotal role in regulating our digestive system. hence, it's no surprise that activia has become a staple for many, especially those grappling with conditions like diarrhea, irritable bowel syndrome, or general sluggish intestinal movement.\r\n\r\nfor those wondering about the palate experience, activia doesn't disappoint. it offers an array of tantalizing flavors ranging from classics like strawberry, vanilla, and peach to more exotic options like black cherry, mixed berry, and prune. with such a diverse selection, it's easy to incorporate activia into daily dietary routines, making gut health both a priority and a pleasure.\r\n\r\nin essence, while there are myriad yogurt brands lining supermarket shelves, activia, with its unique blend of probiotics and commitment to digestive well-being, has carved a niche for itself. it's more than just a yogurt; it's a commitment to a healthier gut and, by extension, a healthier you.\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li><a href=\"https:\/\/academic.oup.com\/advances\/article\/10\/suppl_1\/s49\/5307225\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><em>advances in nutrition<\/em><\/a> - \"<em>bifidobacterium<\/em> and strains of lactic acid bacteria are the most widely used bacteria that exhibit probiotic properties and are included in many functional foods and dietary supplements. probiotics have been shown to prevent and ameliorate the course of digestive [issues] such as acute, nosocomial, and antibiotic-associated diarrhea; allergic conditions such as atopic dermatitis (eczema) and allergic rhinitis in infants; and <em>clostridium difficile<\/em>\u2013associated diarrhea and some inflammatory bowel [issues] in adults.\"<\/li>\r\n \t<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nature.com\/articles\/s41575-019-0173-3?fbclid=iwar3g7kyldqtb7izqojjqrjilncctugbkaeeyaycskeqwe5iirpn4sxtc9da\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><em>nature reviews gastroenterology &amp; hepatology<\/em><\/a> - \"therapeutic and prophylactic effects of some probiotics and prebiotics for a variety of gut-related [issues] might be, at least in part, mediated through modification of the microbiota and\/or its function.\"<\/li>\r\n \t<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.frontiersin.org\/articles\/10.3389\/fcimb.2019.00454\/full?utm_source=dlvr.it&amp;utm_medium=twitter\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><em>frontiers in cellular and infection microbiology<\/em><\/a> - \"... although several mechanisms are observed when studying a single probiotic strain, not all individual strains are expected to share the same effects.\"<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<h2>how did activia start?<\/h2>\r\nin the early 1980s, dannon researchers got curious about bifidobacteria. they decided to develop a particular strain of the probiotic that could thrive well in yogurt despite yogurt's acidic medium.\r\n\r\nthe researchers reached a consensus to add the bifidus actiregularis strain to the common yogurt bacteria. this birthed one of their widely-known yogurt products called activia today.\r\n\r\nwhen all was said and done, activia was introduced into france by groupe danone (the dannon 2022足球世界杯德国队分组

gelatin, cornstarch (modified), guar gum, agar, lactic acid, vitamin d3, sodium citrate, and calcium lactate.\r\n\r\nthe natural vanilla taste may also be found in any flavor of the activia yogurt. in contrast, activia fibre, in addition to the other ingredients, contains red wheat bran, inulin, rolled white wheat flakes, and rolled oats.\r\n\r\nactivia light, on the other hand, includes sucralose and aspartame instead of regular sugar.\r\n<h3>probiotics<\/h3>\r\napart from the traditional bacteria found in most yogurts, activia contains a probiotic strain known as bifidus actiregularis.\r\n\r\nhence, the activia yogurt contains bifidobacterium animalis dn 17,010, a proprietary probiotic strain of the bifidobacterium marketed under names bifidobacterium actiregularis, bifidobacterium regularis, bifidobacterium lactis, and bifidobacterium digestivum.\r\n\r\naccording to\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/pmc4045285\/\" target=\"_blank\"

width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" \/>\r\n\r\nthere are more significant reasons to agree that activia works than otherwise, although it's considered part of a probiotic fad.\r\n\r\nactivia products are referred to as foods enriched with numerous probiotics that offer optimum health benefits when consumers take them in adequate amounts. however, the positive results of consuming this kind of food are often known as functional foods, depending on the strains and their doses.\r\n\r\nthis is why dannon boasts its unique selection of probiotic strain, which can thrive in yogurts like activia. according to dannon, this strain has been proven from studies to go through the entire gastrointestinal tract without issues.\r\n\r\nmore so, placebo-controlled studies also reveal that when included in a balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle, consumers may also enjoy a reduction in how frequently they experience digestive discomfort, per\u00a0<em><a

probiotics may also benefit immune health.\r\n\r\nthere may be cases of minor discomfort like gas, bloating, and rumbling on the flip side.\r\n\r\nin general, more research needs to be performed on probiotics, prebiotics, and their role on the digestive system, according to\u00a0<em><a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/23037903\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">current opinion in clinical nutrition and metabolic health<\/a>.\u00a0<\/em>\r\n<h2>activia benefits and results<\/h2>\r\n\"activia may help reduce the frequency of minor digestive discomfort,\" says dannon. we can also tell you that including yogurt in your diet is a nutritious and effective way to get the amount of protein and calcium your body needs.\r\n\r\nmoreover, activia yogurts, irrespective of flavor or variant, contain the good bacteria known as probiotics required for the digestive system. dannon activia also can provide the body with minerals, vitamins, and sugar.\r\n\r\nhesca also lists probiotic power, health to bones, and adequate protein content as some of the benefits of activia. the proprietary strain of probiotic bacteria is what distinguishes activia from all other probiotic strains.\r\n\r\nalthough it is said that there are probiotic yogurts that have good bugs that are equally as beneficial as activia's, nonetheless, activia says it helps to keep gastrointestinal issues away. there have also been a few testimonials of being relieved of diarrhea when activia was taken.\r\n\r\nactivia may also provide health to the body's bones because it contains a good amount of vitamin d and calcium.\r\n\r\nactivia's protein content may also provide the body with the necessary repair of body tissues. these proteins may also help to create the right environment to fight off illnesses and diseases.\r\n\r\naccording to\u00a0<em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/pmc5031164\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">tropical life sciences research<\/a>,\u00a0<\/em>probiotics can benefit the immune system, mental health, and oral health.\r\n<h2>activia and weight loss<\/h2>\r\nfrom reviews and comments on public forums, we can say activia, because of its probiotics and nutrients, is very useful in regulating the digestive tract. however, in our search on activia, we didn't see any clinical or scientific proofs on its ingredients and whether it helps with weight loss.\r\n\r\nhowever, one study published in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/pmc6444704\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><em>obesity facts <\/em><\/a>on po.150 found that \"probiotic low-fat yogurt (0.5%), fermented with bifidus actiregularis, lactobacillus bulgaricus and streptococcus thermophilus\" could reduce body weight.\"\r\n\r\nin any case, bearing in mind that what affects weight loss depends on your caloric intake. introducing activia to your diet may be an excellent way to get started on a weight-loss plan.\r\n\r\nhere are a few suggested ways that could happen:\r\n<h3>calories<\/h3>\r\nthe caloric content in activia yogurts varies with the type you decide to opt for. you can get as low as 60 calories from the activia light variant and 90 calories from the activia yogurt's vanilla variant. the greek vanilla yogurt, which comes in larger containers than the other options, provides 140 calories.\r\n\r\nso if you are thinking of reducing your calorie intake as a weight-loss strategy, going for the low calorie-content activity light will be an excellent way to make that happen.\r\n\r\non an elementary level, if you reduce your daily intake of calories by, say, 500 to 1,000, you'll shed 1 to 2 pounds every week.\r\n\r\nthen again, if you are all about something more effective for weight loss, then you should go for supplements that have been clinically proven to do the job without hassles.\r\n<h2>how to take activia<\/h2>\r\n<img class=\"img-responsive\" src=\"\/\/www.digitopmedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/how-to-take-activia.jpg\" alt=\"how to take activia\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" \/>\r\n\r\nfor the best results, dannon advises consumers to include activia in a regular balanced diet by consuming it two times every day for two weeks.\r\n\r\naccording to livestrong, one serving of the activia yogurt's cherry variant has 1.5 grams of fat and 90 calories. the serving also contains 4 grams of protein, which is equivalent to 9% of the total amount of protein women need in their diet and 7% of what men need.\r\n\r\nother flavors of the dannon activia yogurt like the prune, banana, peach, strawberry, vanilla, and peach have the same calorie, protein, and fat content, whereas the blueberry variant has 90 calories.\r\n\r\nactivia can be incorporated into your diet in various ways. you can choose to have it for breakfast as a stand-alone meal when combined with fruits or grains. you could also want to have it as a smoothie. and of course, you can decide to have it on the side when you have your regular meals.\r\n\r\noh yeah! familiar with mediterranean dishes? these dishes make good combinations with yogurt, and activia is known to do the job well.\r\n<h2>potential activia side effects<\/h2>\r\ndannon says consumers may experience a few minor issues with consumption. these problems may include one or a combination of the following:\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li>abdominal discomfort<\/li>\r\n \t<li>rumbling<\/li>\r\n \t<li>gas<\/li>\r\n \t<li>bloating<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\nit is almost no longer news that probiotic bacteria commonly found in good yogurts are very useful in fighting unwanted and harmful bugs in the intestinal tracts like fungi, yeast, and parasites. however, one cannot overlook the anecdotal reports of side effects with activia yogurt consumption.\r\n\r\nhere are a few:\r\n<h3>digestive problems<\/h3>\r\nthere have been a few complaints from some consumers of some digestive problems that occur from taking activia. these issues include acute abdominal cramps, nausea, diarrhea, acid reflux, bloating, and irregularity.\r\n<h3>worsening symptoms of lactose intolerance<\/h3>\r\nsome consumers also complained on public forums of how their lactose intolerance worsened as a result of eating activia.\r\n<h3>diabetic issues<\/h3>\r\nit is important to note that certain flavors of activia have high sugar content, which may be why diabetic patients who have consumed this yogurt have experienced challenges with their blood sugar level.\r\n<h3>other issues<\/h3>\r\neven though these effects, which are related to the body systems, have not been stated on the dannon website, they have been discussed on public forums. they include muscle pains, increased rate of metabolism, sleeping problems, anxiety, and headaches.\r\n<h2>activia product warnings<\/h2>\r\ndannon has advertised activia as yogurt with a good amount of the excellent bug known as bifidus regularis. among many others, this bug is known to be a suitable replacement for the good bugs that are removed from the flora of the bowels by antibiotics.\r\n\r\nhowever, because it also contains lactobacillus, there are a few things to note about taking activia:\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li>although the bacteria found in activia called lactobacillus is meant to grow to get its job done in the consumer's system, it can grow out of proportion. this bacteria may even cause diseases in the body, which is a red flag for those who have weakened immune systems. such patients are required to contact a physician first.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>antibiotics, when taken, help to reduce the number of harmful bacteria in the body. however, an antibiotic's effectiveness may be reduced when antibiotics are taken alongside foods like activia that contain lactobacillus. then again, taking immunosuppressant drugs to reduce the immune system's function can also increase the chances of becoming sick.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>chemotherapy patients and patients who take immunosuppressant drugs for organ transplants may develop severe infections in the blood. thus, those who have low immune systems of this sort are advised to avoid foods that contain lactobacillus like activia.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<h2>lawsuits on activia?<\/h2>\r\n<img class=\"img-responsive\" src=\"\/\/www.digitopmedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/lawsuits-on-activia.jpg\"

to leave it out of your ads. it is very likely dannon would have saved its neck if it paid attention to this detail.\r\n\r\nin 2008, dannon was slammed with a 21 million dollar charge for alleged false representations about danactive and activia yogurt. and this stemmed from some of the adverts aired by dannon, the\u00a0<a class=\"editor-rtflink\"

the product makes several claims about boosting energy and providing numerous health benefits. probiotics are known to be beneficial for the body, but there is very little evidence - clinical or otherwise - that probiotic drinks such as this one are effective for weight loss.\r\n\r\nnonetheless, our research team took a deep look into the product, specifically looking for facts that back kevita's claims of better intestinal health and eventual weight loss. read on for our full review of master brew kombucha.\r\n<h2>what is kevita?<\/h2>\r\npeople are now switching over to a healthier and natural living in a variety of ways. one such approach was the reliance on probiotics, which has jumped the bandwagon with a red siren into the alleys of health conscious. according to the international scholarly research notices, people have developed a propensity for fermented foods having probiotics for thousands of years and have attained various health benefits and improved digestion.\r\n\r\nearlier, people had to have their sauerkraut or had in-house fermentation to make their probiotics a healthy lifestyle. but things have become more manageable now with many probiotics drinks available in the market.\r\n\r\nbefore we delve deeper into this product, let's take a look at the research:\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li><a class=\"editor-rtflink\"

crafted from fermented sweet tea for their kombucha tea and fermented water kefir for their other drink varieties.\r\n\r\nkombucha, a lightly effervescent beverage, is meticulously created by fermenting sweet tea in a culture of bacteria and yeast. this natural fermentation process lends the drink its unique characteristics, distinguishing it as a wholesome option in the beverage market.\r\n\r\nwater kefir, another cornerstone of kevita's offerings, is a lightly effervescent, water-based drink. this distinct beverage is crafted through the fermentation of water kefir culture grains in water with sugar. it's important to note that water kefir grains are not related to traditional grains like wheat; they constitute a unique culture. unlike cultures used in fermenting dairy kefir, water kefir grains bring their own set of qualities to the table. they serve as the foundation for kevita's sparkling probiotic drinks, sparkling probiotic lemonades, and apple cider vinegar tonics.\r\n\r\nduring the fermentation process, specific probiotics are produced, contributing to the overall health benefits of kevita beverages. the key ingredients include water kefir culture (consisting of water, lactic acid, kefir culture, and natural flavor), along with stevia, fruit puree, and vinegar. it's important to note that the manufacturer makes claims regarding the probiotic content and health benefits associated with kevita products.\r\n\r\namong kevita's innovative offerings, the kevita lemon ginger holds a special place as the inaugural drink in the line of probiotic beverages. this underscores kevita's commitment to providing a range of beverages that not only cater to diverse tastes but also integrate the benefits of fermentation and probiotics into a convenient, ready-to-drink format.\r\n<h2>what is kevita kombucha?<\/h2>\r\nkombucha was quoted as the most liberal product in america in 2009 and sold like hot cakes in the domestic beverage industry. it was the sole product calling shots in the beverage economy and was on the radar of many big shots of the industry. it has found a special place in the common man\u2019s healthy lifestyle because of its noted benefits.\r\n\r\nwhat was with this ancient chinese beverage that it cornered all other drinks in the market and became a relevant product of pepsico\u2019s brand portfolio in 2016? we need a critical lens to evaluate the reasons behind the popularity of kevita drink and its underpinnings.\r\n\r\nkevita kombucha is a fermented and sweetened tea made with black or green tea. it undergoes a meticulous fermentation process using sweetened black or green tea, facilitated by a symbiotic culture of bacteria and yeast (scoby). this unique culture transforms the sugar in the tea, generating organic acids, vitamins, and various compounds.\r\n\r\nthe manufacturer claims that kevita kombucha stands out as a low-calorie and low-sugar beverage, appealing to health-conscious consumers. in addition to its minimal calorie and sugar content, kombucha is touted to be a rich source of b vitamins, organic acids, antioxidants, and probiotics, all contributing to its potential health benefits.\r\n\r\nthe production of kombucha involves several key steps. initially, a sweetened tea blend is created using black or green tea combined with sugar. it is crucial to allow the tea to cool to room temperature, as excessive heat can adversely affect the scoby. subsequently, the scoby is introduced into the cooled tea mixture, initiating the fermentation process. the manufacturer asserts that this method ensures the preservation of the beverage's unique qualities and potential health-enhancing properties.\r\n<h2>what is so special about the process?<\/h2>\r\nkombucha is

brought into in the early 20th century, especially in russia and germany.\r\n\r\nits popularity plummeted at the international fora due to the acute scarcity of tea and sugar supplies during wwii. it

:\r\n\r\nin the beginning, you should start with about four ounces per day so that your digestive system familiarizes and gets used to it. some people with higher sensitivity may have side effects to kevita kombucha flavors, like diarrhea or bloating. this happens because the intake of probiotic supplements prompts your immune system to react to unhealthy bacteria's destruction.\r\n\r\nbut as you increase your intake gradually and your body becomes used to it, you can drink about 8 to 12 ounces of kevita kombucha every day. more than 16 ounces a day is an excess.\r\n<h2>what are benefits of kevita?<\/h2>\r\nkevita contains some probiotics which power up the digestive functions of the body, according to the\u00a0<a class=\"editor-rtflink\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pubmed\/10634218\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><em>american journal of gastroenterology<\/em><\/a>. however, kevita benefits will not help you shed unwanted layers of fat in your body. probiotics are added body-friendly bacteria to your digestive tract and help in the absorption of nutrients and vitamins.\r\n\r\ncurrent research is investigating the link between kombucha and blood sugar, per <a href=\"https:\/\/clinicaltrials.gov\/ct2\/show\/nct04051294\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">clinical trials<\/a>. per the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/30527803\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><em>annals of epidemiology<\/em><\/a>, more research is needed to determine the effects of kombucha.\r\n\r\none bottle of kevita sparkling probiotic drink has 4 billion probiotics per bottle.\r\n\r\nkevita line-up of drinks claims to kick-start healthy lifestyles as an organic, low-calorie refreshment. there several platforms where you can buy kevita online.\r\n\r\nkevita comes in flavors like cucumber rosemary, blueberry cherry, lemon cayenne, ginger colada, lemon ginger, mango coconut, mojita lime mint coconut, pomegranate, strawberry acai coconut, tangerine, and watermelon rose. each bottle is coming in at 15.2oz.\r\n<h2>what are potential side effects of kevita probiotic?<\/h2>\r\non the flip side, a probiotic drink has potential side effects too. kevita review has shown that users of kevita probiotic may experience side effects such as bloating, gas, nausea, and vomiting, per the <em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/pmc1497178\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">journal of general internal medicine<\/a>.\u00a0<\/em>\r\n\r\n<img class=\"img-responsive\" src=\"\/\/www.digitopmedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/acai-berry-bloating-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"kevita probiotics bloat\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" \/>\r\n\r\nadditionally, those who have an intake of kevita probiotic may experience side effects due to the bacteria in the drinks.\r\n<h2>the factor of kevita probiotic drink price: high or low?<\/h2>\r\napart from the side effects, there is one more thing wrong with kevita, the price. the drink comes for a hefty price. a single case of bottles costs something between $44-$56, which means one bottle is available for $5. not everybody would like to spend such a substantial amount for a little bottle.\r\n\r\nwhen you have other means to cut down your fat and exercise to a healthier lifestyle, there is nothing in the drink of kevita. kevita price is a significant factor that repels consumers looking for a cheaper solution.\r\n\r\nprices across retailers are:\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li>target: $3.19<\/li>\r\n \t<li>publix: $3.75<\/li>\r\n \t<li>walmart: $3.13<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<h2>lawsuits against kevita<\/h2>\r\nthe famous probiotic brand kevita, which was recently acquired and merged with pepsico, was called in the court to clear its stand on a complaint filed by the plaintiff alleging deception by a brand like kevita. the plaint alleged that kevita\u2019s line of kombucha products are deceptive for the consumers because the kombucha drink is pasteurized.\r\n\r\nthe suit was filed in the ventura superior court in october 2017.\r\n\r\nthe plaint cites the historical process of making kombucha and argues that since kevita pasteurized its master brew line, it kills the naturally occurring bacteria and thereby deceives the patronage who consumes it believing it to be a raw product.\r\n\r\nthe suit acknowledges that kevita mixes it with probiotics after pasteurization, but claims that consumers are being led astray by advertising that the product passes through the organic process of fermentation during the drink\u2019s brewing process.\r\n\r\nthe brand went through another lawsuit in september 2020 for false advertising again. this time, it is because of the actual labeling of the kombucha product.\r\n\r\naccording to this lawsuit, most kevita flavors aren't even kombucha, but instead \"<a
