Have you ever heard of "Yakult"? It is a probiotic drink which contains Lactobacillus case strain Shirota, a good bacteria that helps our gastrointestinal flora.

 

 

In a recent study, it has been proven that daily consumption of "Yakult" helps in maintaining upper respiratory tract health. The study was spearheaded by Professor Michael GLeeson of Loughborough University in the United Kingdom. “This study has resulted in important data that are further evidence of immune benefits associated with drinking Yakult," he said.

 

 

However, this study was sponsored by Yakult Honsha Co., Ltd, the manufacturer of Yakult so there might be biased in there.

    I was recommended to try Yakult by my doctor as I have had IBS for many years. I was quite skeptical but as she said nothing ventured nothing gained. I was wrong i'm very happy to say that. Yakult comes in little containers and is a milky type substance. at first look I thought it was going to taste really disgusting so I had a smell to see what I was letting myself in for. First surprise! It smells really really yummy and much .

    I drank Yakult after I had an operation due to appendicitis to aid in my digestion. Due to the antibiotics that were given to me after the operation, my doctor said the antibiotics could upset my stomach and I just need to counteract it with foods rich in probiotics. That's when I started drinking Yakult and it worked.
