What is immunity?
Immunity is our Natural Defense force that helps us fight infection from viruses and bacteria and even protects us against cancer cells.
Various studies have shown that our immunity becomes weak because of ageing, lack of sleep and exercise, stress and unbalanced diet. So, it is important to improve our lifestyle to strengthen our immunity and stay protected.


Yakult’s unique probiotic, L. casei Shirota (SHIROTA strain) , helps to build immunity by increasing the activity of Natural Killer (NK) cells, which are our natural immune cells. It also increases the secretion of IgA antibody, our first line of defence against harmful pathogens.

Relation between digestive system & immunity
More than 70% of your overall immune cells are present in your digestive system. They play an important role in protecting you from infections by fighting harmful bacteria, viruses and cancer cells.
