My quesrtion is - why are only women interviewed in the ads???
I'm not accusing the makers of sexism...I'm just curious that it's aimed solely at women.

Because they see women as the main house hold shopper, women can relate to women, plus women always have the 'does my bum look big in this/ i feel fat complaint', and this is often caused by bloating, anything to take that anyway and make them feel like someone girl from baywatch and their running out to buy it.
I recommend the doctor recommends to save his budget or else he'd have to prescribe you something and well he has targets you know.
The think I find strange about these yoghurt drinks is that they claim to help people with bloatedness and Irritable Bowl Syndrome. I challenge anyone who is bloated to omit milk from their diet and I'm sure they'll be bloated no more. I find it odd that a milk product is recommended for people with IBS when milk is the cause of the IBS and people find themselves in this catch 22 situation. JUST DON'T DRINK MILK. The chinese have never ate dairy products and are very fit and healthy people. We don't need them, don't be fooled by this scam from Actimel.

My doctor, who has been my doctor for 20 years, is an honest man who deplores the current budget situation and speaks the truth. I would rather have actimel or similar than a prescribed 'drug' anyway. Too much prescribing of antibiotics has lead to our immune systems being compromised anyway.
As for milk, I have IBS and rarely touch milk, even in my tea.

Nothing to do with Actimel but a true story nevertheless:
Many years ago I was at a 3-day management training conference along with other folk from all over the UK. On the second morning just as the lecture started, Dai, a slightly overweight Welsh rugby player, ambled in, nodded to the lecturer and muttered "Sorry I'm late, Boyo." The lecturer indicating Dai's carefully nurtured beer belly replied, "That's OK Dai bach. Is it morning sickness?"
Dave replied, "That's right bach! If it's a girl I'm going to call it Blodwyn after my wife, see? And if it's a boy I'll call it Dewi after me. But if it's just wind and pi$$ I'll call it after you. OK?"
