Yakult For Me!

Yakult is a pro-biotic drink from Japan with a strain of good bacteria; the Lactobacillus. Drinking Yakult stops the growth of harmful bacteria, protects us from infection, helps digestion and absorption of food, produces vitamins and stimulates the immune system.

In Japan, Yakult is acknowledged by the Japanese Ministry of Health as a "Food for Specified Health Usages" with approved health claim "The Lactobacillus casei Shirota strain reaches the intestines alive, so this product maintains good health by increasing beneficial bacteria, decreasing harmful bacteria and improving the intestinal environment".

How do you get your daily dose of Yakult?
From the supermarket? Fixed price at RM3.99 (price increased already. Used to be RM3.89) at our local supermarket. 10 sen increase because I guess for a pack of 5 bottles of Yakult, they need 1/2 a kilo of sugar. Hmph!
From the vending machine?
Or from the friendly seller in your neighbourhood like this one we found in Osaka? Even big, tough boys drink Yakult.

One for you? XD
