What is Yakult?

Our Delicious Peach Yakult Recipe uses the probiotic beverage, Yalkult. 

Originally created in Japan, Yakult is now sold worldwide. Yakult is the first probiotic drink ever created and has a refreshing citrus taste. It is a fermented dairy product, which contains the enzyme lactose. 

Yakult works with dietitians, scientists, and doctors around the world to help people with medical conditions and to further the research of probiotics.   

Benefits of Probiotics  

Yakult contains the probiotic strain, L. paracasei. Probiotics are the “good” bacteria that can be beneficial for our guts and digestive systems! 

Eating or drinking a daily probiotic can be beneficial for your gut and overall health. 

Probiotics can contain a very wide variety of different bacteria strains. The most common strains found in probiotic enriched food and drink are Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium. 

Yeast is also a probiotic bacteria and is used to create many enjoyable fermented foods!
