You may not realize it, but your digestive system actually contains a lot of bacteria it depends on to function properly. Along with those friendly bacteria, you're likely to have other microorganisms that aren't so helpful. In large quantities, some may even become harmful. That's why it's so important that your body maintain a healthy balance of bacteria in your digestive system. And that's where Yoplait® Yo-Plus™ yogurt can help.

Why is healthy digestive balance important?
|
|
Your digestive system performs two very important functions: It absorbs the nutrients your body needs and it forms a barrier against substances that might do your body harm.
When your digestive system is out of balance, you can feel out of balance, too. Sluggish, uncomfortable and just not right.

|
How does my system get out of balance?
|
There are lots of factors that can have a negative effect on the friendly bacteria in your body.
Disruptive things like a poor diet, stress and antibiotics can all take their toll. As the number of friendly bacteria decreases, there's more room for unfriendly bacteria to move in.
Adding our Optibalance™ blend of probiotics and prebiotics to your system can help crowd out the unfriendly organisms by creating a supportive environment for the friendly ones to take back their territory.
Your body knows how to take care of itself. But now you can give it a little more help. Every day.
