DanActive: Delicious Pro-biotic Drink
DanActive is an early entry in the "functional food" category: products that have been engineered to provide a medical benefit beyond the basic nutritional value of the food. DanActive is a pro-biotic drink – a cultured milk drink with scientific evidence supporting its claim to naturally help strengthen the immune system. And maybe it’s true: Bruce and I have been drinking one a day since November, and it’s the first winter in recent memory that neither of us caught a cold or got sick. Maybe it’s coincidence, and maybe it’s the DanActive. Either way, it tastes really great, and it couldn’t hurt. The Vanilla flavor is by far the best.
Sailing through the Northern part of the Netherlands, we were given a Kefhir plant (actually a little whilte blob resembling a cauliflower floret) by Dutch friends so that we could drink this live bacteria culture on board. Eventually, we had to “feed” the plant so much milk, and had to drink so much to keep it going, we wound up tossing it overboard. We had become “The little BOAT of Horrors”. but were never sick. Would that we had Danactive at the time! LOL

Where in LA can you buy it? Can’t find it anywhere.
BKS: Whole Foods in NY and LA have it.
