The beneficial effects of good bacteria

We are what we eat. The substances in what we eat are used for growth, for tissue replacement and for maintaining our overall well-being. This is why proper nutrition is essential.

How our bodies respond to everyday stress and strains of life, including viruses, germs and other bacteria, depends greatly on good nourishment.

In this fast-paced world, our bodies are adversely affected by so many factors such as our surroundings, work lifestyle, and what we eat and drink every day. How can we stay healthy if we cannot guarantee good nutrition?

More than taking medicines and other substances that are not naturally compatible to our bodies, the best way to keep healthy is by drinking Yakult, a probiotic drink made by fermenting skim milk containing live lactic acid bacteria. Live lactic acid bacteria are good bacteria found in the human intestinal tract.

Yakult’s founder, Dr. Minoru Shirota, discovered the beneficial effects of these good bacteria way back in the 1930s.

Lactobacillus Casei Shirota
strain, eight billion of which are found in every bottle of Yakult, were discovered to be helpful in maintaining good intestinal health and preventing digestive disorders.

A healthy digestive system ensures that we get all the nutrients in the food that we eat. Intestinal and digestive disorders can result in many life-threatening illnesses and diseases.

Drinking Yakult every day helps maintain a healthy quantity of "good" bacteria to prevent the growth of "bad" bacteria.

This delicate balance is achieved and maintained by the "friendly," "beneficial" and "good" bacteria found in Yakult to keep the intestinal tract healthy.

They also enhance the immune system by preventing the overgrowth of yeast and fungus and produce substances that can prevent infections.

The microorganisms found in Yakult also help improve bowel movement, prevent growth of harmful bacteria in the intestines, aid digestion, and help eliminate harmful substances.
