How a probiotic drink can help you stay healthy

How does Yakult help boost our immunity?

Yakult is a probiotic milk drink from Japan. A bottle of Yakult contains live beneficial bacteria that reach the intestines alive, improving digestion. These bacteria boost our immunity by increasing the level of Natural Killer cells (NK cells), which are part of our immune system, and stimulating the immune cells. Beneficial bacteria are responsible for fighting the infectious diseases and preventing the occurrence of cancer cells.
