Activia is marketed as a beneficial health product, with a focus on improved digestion for both men and women. Activia products contain the probiotic bacterium Bifidobacterium animalis DN 173 010 , but Danone predominantly uses the trade names Bifidus Regularis or Bifidus Actiregularis . Activia is classified as a functional food designed to address digestive health. Danone claims that the Bifidobacterium animalis helps relieve digestive discomfort and irregularity. According to the website of the Federal Trade Commission FTC , The Dannon Company settled allegations of false advertising in December 2010 without admitting a violation of law by agreeing in a settlement agreement to stop making the claim in advertising that yogurt relieves temporary irregularity or slows intestinal transit unless the claim is not misleading and the ad conveys that three servings of Activia yogurt must be eaten each day to obtain these benefits.
