Advantages: Good to line the stomach with

Disadvantages: a bit sweet for me

I have bought these in the past when I was ill and could not hold down food. I had an ulcer and eating was painful. I found these drinks were excellent first thing in the morning to take away the hunger and coat my stomach without hurting the ulcer. I would highly recommend it for this use!

I am not so sure about it's claims of having good bacteria that aid digestion and ensure a healthy gut. I never found any improvement. I still caught colds and I wasn't prone to stomach bugs or indigestion to I can't comment on that.

The taste is sweet. It is a very sweet natural yoghurt taste but in a drink form.

I recently bought a few packets when they were on buy one get one free. Supermarkets often have them on offer. They come in packs of 8 so I had 16 and struggled to fit them in before they went off! I was on two a day at teh end and that's put me off buying them again for a while.

They weren't enjoyable to eat, I just thought of them as medicine!

Summary: Ok but not a strong recommendation from me!
