When it comes to good health, most of us think about eating right, exercising, and sleeping well. But did you know that your gut plays a huge role in keeping you healthy and happy? This is where Yakult and its special Shirota strain come into the picture.
A little bottle of probiotic drink is packed with billions of beneficial bacteria that can do wonders to your digestive system. Let’s break it down in a friendly and easy to understand way.
The Shirota Strain
The heart of Yakult is made up of a unique probiotic called Lactobacillus casei Shirota. It was discovered by Dr. Minoru Shirota in the year 1930s in Japan. His vision was very simple. If people can strengthen their gut with good bacteria, they can live longer and healthier lives. This strain is strong enough to survive the harsh journey through your stomach acid and reach your intestine alive, where it can really do great work.
So, every time you drink a bottle of Yakult, you’re sending billions of these good bacteria directly to your gut to help it function at its best.
