Except that you can put as many micro-animals into the microbiome farm in your gut, but they don't live long if you don't eat what keeps THEM alive. Much better to eat a prebiotic like oat rich foods and actually just grow them for a fraction of the price.
As a Japanese who grew up drinking this, I’d like to thank you for confirming that this drink has an actual probiotic bacteria. Now I know I can continue drinking this highly addictive drink without worrying 🙇♂️
@@otchsigua8223 hmmm I should definitely look carefully into what I eat and drink like you mentioned… in fact so many companies fake what they put and all nowadays. I need to do some research.
I'm not japanese, bit still asian. I love drinking this alot too! I usually drink 1 a day. I like the weird feeling it gives when it's your first sip and it gives that tangy taste and feeling it gives your tongue lol.
well I don't know if it is just a placebo effect or not, but from my experience Yakult did help a little bit when I have a stomach ache or feel not right with my stomach.
When I was growing up in Korea in the 80s and 90s, we'd have these delivered weekly. The delivery person was always a woman and was distinctive because they wore like a brown or yellow uniform, a special hat, and wheeled around a yellow cart, iirc. They didn't deliver anything else. Just this.
In Thailand, they have blue and white uniform, and of course cool hat, sometimes they use bicycle, but i live near the factory so they walk around our village, they selling it about 5 Bath for small one or around 15 cent and 15 Bath or 45 cent for larger one.
Hey i heard that south korea is a highly racist country. They discriminate on the basis of colour and poor country. I also saw a korean drama clip where the protagonist beating literally black guys to save a girl. Is korea really a racist country??
since when did it hasn't??? Yakult is almost synonymous to probiotic drink. if you're asked what brand of probiotic drink you know, most people will say Yakult.
it doesn't, it is full of sugar, not to mention maltodextrin or dextrose in the drink....drinking Yakut is way more harmful than beneficial. If you want probiotics, drink kefir, that is by far the best source of all. People are easily misleading when it comes to food.
This is so popular in the Philippines. I grew up in the 80s drinking this. More than 3 decades after, it's still popular and the packaging hasn't changed.
Had a bad case of food poisoning one time, and my gut wasn't the same after, a friend suggested taking Yakult for a while, I took it for about two months and I swear within days my gut started to feel better.
True, in my case i was having bad shits after eating bad seafood. Took 2 shots of these and fixed my diarrhea in 4 hrs 😂 looks like the bad bacteria didnt stand a chance
So the effect of yakult towards food poisoning is legit, then? I'm afraid that if I have upset stomach then I drink Yakult, my stomachache will worsen 😅
@@callmeatika As far as I know Yakult won't stop food poisoning or even prevent it, but what it will do (in my own experience) is help to rebuild your internal gastric flora, which in turn helps you to get your gut back in sync. If you've ever had bad food poisoning, you know that afterwards your gut can feel "off" and foods that you ate before with no trouble can suddenly give you problems, I have found that Yakult helped me get my stomach back to how it was before I had the food poisoning. It's not a magic cure but it will help.
Ephesians 6:12 says, For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Jesus disrespected every religion, in John 14:6, Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. We are not to be with any other religion. Because if we do, Matthew 6:24 says, No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon. Don't pray for other religions.. But we are called to pray for one another in James 5:12 says, But above all things, my brethren, swear not, neither by heaven, neither by the earth, neither by any other oath: but let your yea be yea; and your nay, nay; lest ye fall into condemnation. Is any among you afflicted? let him pray. Is any merry? let him sing psalms. Jesus saves, God bless.
There is a Yakult factory nearby where I live and it is common to see Yakult selling van driving around the neighbourhood with a loudspeaker repeating Yakult, Yakult, Yakult.
I had a bulk pack of these from Costco and eventually thought they didn't work and were BS. Man, your video totally proved me wrong lol. They taste so good too!
They don't really have any effect on a normal person, you already have that bacteria. Probiotics are only recommended after a long time taking oral antibiotics that can kill your own bacteria.
@@blackroberts6290 yep. Best to take the yogurt after you finish a course of antibiotics. You could still take it during, but definitely take it when the meds are done. When I was a kid, I just drank it practically every day because I liked it.
Thats why you have to drink alot of plain water with it. The glucose is needed for energy in your body to work with the bacteria. It’s there for a reason
There's nothing healthy about it though? The amount of sugar is ridiculous and it's been scientifically proven that probiotics in this form have literally 0 benefits. It's just marketing and in reality it's another sugary drink, like coke or other sodas.
@@DB-me7ol I had over production of gastric juice for 20 years, but not reflux. It took more me more than a year drinking 1 red Yakult bottle per day. Now I can eat and drink (within limit) whatever that use to trigger the problem, and most times there'll be no problems.
my mom used to work for Yakult as a door to door seller with a giant Yakult cart you will put ice in and the yakult bottles in bulk and they made them memorize that speech lol, whenever someone asks how it works, they must be able to say that word for word so it's ingrained in my mind
I drink this daily. Love it. It’s great for gut health. Little healthcare tip: If you ever suspect you might have food poisoning, slam one of these. (Or a probiotic of your choice.) It can help recolonize good bacteria and lessen the severity of the food poisoning.
@@bkatz0218there is no scientific evidence that it actually helps, in fact, where I live they are not allowed to advertise with health benefits because they couldn't proove there are any, it also contains more sugar than coca cola
If you're after the probiotics, you can get some in dormant pill form, sort of like yeast. Or you can eat unsweetened yogurt. Yakult is nice and the best choice to give to kids with an upset stomach. Even light will still have a good amount of sugar.
That why you got stupid, less sugar, your brain need it! Try a test: No carbohydrates in every way for 2 years No yakult in every way for 10 years I bet you feel better without yalkult then charboidrates....
Just a question, there are milktea shops in my country that have a milktea with yakult in it. Will it have an effect on the bacteria if they got mixed in on the drinks? Will the long time exposure of the bacteria when drinking them with the milktea cause them to die? Edit: thank you for the insight guys! I'm very curious since this particular milktea is very popular on the store.
If it's heated up? The bacteria will probably die, and given that they'd probably mix it with tea, which is usually brew hot even for cold drinks, it's a genocide. But depending on how they prepare their drink like mixing all the hot ingredients with ice first/ pre-brewing the tea and store them cold, maybe the bacteria would survive. Also should consume a yakult drink without it sitting out for too long.
Aww, Yakult! I love these! There's a low-sugar version, too. That Lactobacillus casei Shirota strain is quite strong. I once experimented with putting Yakult in my sourdough blob. After a few days, the blob was no longer bubbling or rising even after being fed with fresh flour. And it smelled faintly like cherry blossom (sakura) perfume. It was the smell that made me realize the Lactobacilli killed the live yeast and its symbiotic bacteria
I remember drinking this when I was 5/6 years old while living in Hong Kong. It was soo expensive that my parents would only buy this as special treat occasionally. I can drink couple of litres of Yakult if I could afford it.
For those of you grossed out by the moving particles, it might actually be something called Brownian motion, which affects all small particles, even non-living organic ones. In other words, the bacteria appear to be swimming around but that might not be the case at all.
yakult is fr the best i started drinking these because i have gastroparesis and ibs and It really does help edit: why did *this* comment of mine get so many likes....thank u IBS gang 😭 i have problems also due to opioid-induced constipation so im taking a million meds a day and that also messes with the gastroparesis bc i cant digest stuff.
As a SE Asian, our homes mainly consists of these two drinks: Yakult and Vitagen. Some love Yakult, some love Vitagen. I love both even though I shat my pants before. Also, if anyone remembers the Little Bobdog candy. A small like chalk looking “cigarette” candies for kids. Aww the good times.
this shit causes overgrowth of bacteria in the intestines. Most of the commenters are excited about this product, meanwhile this shit causes an irritable intestine sibo
i’m mexican and i used to drink this as a kid which is pretty weird considering it’s not from mexico but they were everywhere for some reason. they’re pretty dang tasty so i would just chug them not knowing it was actually very beneficial to my health. thanks yakult.
Please, I would really like to see water from an old smelly dish sponge, then microwave the same wet sponge for three minutes and check it again please? I'd love to see if microwaving it would get it to a high enough temperature to kill the bacteria. By wet I mean run it under some water and throw it on a plate or bowl to microwave it, not submerged in water. I would really appreciate you doing this. 🙏
Probiotic doesn't mean that bacteria goes to your intestines, it means it contains good think to encourage some kind of bacteria already living in your intestines to grow faster and better. Almost no one of the yakult living bacteria will reach your intestines alive. People often misunderstood that word.
I still have an old shoe box filled with empty Yakult bottles that I collected when I was little, marked with the date that I drank them on 😭 I don't know why I thought it was such a special thing, probably because you're supposed to drink one a day, and as a child that looked like an impressive and fun task!
Thank you for confirming this, as I 've started taking them again after my 1 week session of anti-biotics, time to fill my gut again with the helpful little buddies.
Got to say, that's an excellent marketing campaign to convince people that drinking one of your products everyday is necessary to maintain acceptable health 👍🏼.
@@Official-OpenAI Lots of Japanese food tastes like 🚮 so saying it’s from Japan is irrelevant. It’s not like you can expect it to be good which is I assume his point
When I was a kid, I used to beg my mom to buy us Yakut; but she would say that Yakut and curd are the same and make us her version of Yakut(curd+water+honey)... Now after two decades, I'm giving the same answer to my 8 year old son and offering him the home made version😂😂😂
For the 9 year olds or younger or possibly older thinking that there’s actual bad bacteria in Yakult, dw. Probiotics are bacteria that help in the body’s digestion and basically keeps us healthy overall. It doesn’t cause any damage or problems to a rather healthy body. So, if you see any Probiotic labeling, it’s safe to eat/drink/use
This is my best “medicine” whenever i have a bad stomach, here in the philippines our yakult’s tagline is “yakult everyday,everyday okay” and it is true!❤

If It wasn't self control, I'd drink whole packs of these things within a single sitting.
Rill cuy
Yakult mixed in lemonade or mango shake is a must try
I bet you it mixes well with cooled off hot chocolate
The lemonade 🍋 probably kills all the bacteria.
I love this! I drink yakult almost everyday (other probiotic drink brands as well) and it helped a lot with my digestion and bloated stomach ♥️
Sorry yogurt, yakult bacteria won't survive your acidic gastric juice. It's a big scam. There's a study on it.
this shit causes overgrowth of bacteria in the intestines. Most of the commenters are excited about this product, meanwhile this shit causes an irritable intestine sibo
I love how the TH-cam compression system is REALLY not having fun trying to display all this lmao.
Those bacteria are delicious!

Fr no cap
Me drinking yakult watching this:👁️👄👁️
Growing up in Brazil we took these to school lunch and drink it, it's AMAZING, and we have all kinds of flavors, like citrus, strawberry and grape
Those taste so good. Haven't had one for over 10 years
What does it taste like?
@@saundracohen4032 great question. I have no idea what I could possibly compare it to. If you can I'd just go out and buy one yourself
@@saundracohen4032 kind of a nice sour milk taste 😂
@@saundracohen4032 sour milk with a mild vanilla taste, it's very very good
@@BionicPoodle can't wait to try, thanks!
Thanks for starting to put the magnification on top of screen. More enjoyable now
Yakult is my favorite probiotic drink. Thanks for this video.
*yakult is my favorite drink
I had the pleasure of visiting one of the main Yakult factories in my region and it definitely was one of the best moments in my life 😊
SEEEEEE??!!! IT HAS PROBIOTICS. ❤
This should shame those who spread information that Yakult is just sugar. Yakult is my go-to every morning.
i’m mexican and i used to drink this as a kid which is pretty weird considering it’s not from mexico but they were everywhere for some reason. they’re pretty dang tasty so i would just chug them not knowing it was actually very beneficial to my health. thanks yakult.
They are everywhere because they're a multinational global company
This is the only childhood drink that I still enjoy as an adult
Yakult: We had a bad year.
This Guy: No problem
Please, I would really like to see water from an old smelly dish sponge, then microwave the same wet sponge for three minutes and check it again please? I'd love to see if microwaving it would get it to a high enough temperature to kill the bacteria. By wet I mean run it under some water and throw it on a plate or bowl to microwave it, not submerged in water. I would really appreciate you doing this. 🙏
I'm down!!
As an Indian there was a time when you could see a pack of this at everyone's house, times have passed since then.
Probiotic doesn't mean that bacteria goes to your intestines, it means it contains good think to encourage some kind of bacteria already living in your intestines to grow faster and better. Almost no one of the yakult living bacteria will reach your intestines alive. People often misunderstood that word.
What you’re talking about is prebiotic. Probiotics are bacteria
I still have an old shoe box filled with empty Yakult bottles that I collected when I was little, marked with the date that I drank them on 😭
I don't know why I thought it was such a special thing, probably because you're supposed to drink one a day, and as a child that looked like an impressive and fun task!
Dork
That sounds so cute…(the way you were as a child)
You should plant some small plants in them. Or water propagation and display it nicely in your home.
I actually drink this stuff everyday. Improved my gut health considerably since I started and it doesn't taste half bad either.
Dude it's delicious
The work that went into our medicine. The passion.
glad to visit one of their factories here in the Philippines
Very popular in mexico too, moms buy it for their children
Thank you for confirming this, as I 've started taking them again after my 1 week session of anti-biotics, time to fill my gut again with the helpful little buddies.
Every Japanese household had these because it was always said to be healthy to drink 1 a day. It also tastes very good, i mean cmon its from Japan
But so what if yakult is a japanese company?
@@povoni2607 What?
Got to say, that's an excellent marketing campaign to convince people that drinking one of your products everyday is necessary to maintain acceptable health 👍🏼.
@@Official-OpenAI Lots of Japanese food tastes like 🚮 so saying it’s from Japan is irrelevant. It’s not like you can expect it to be good which is I assume his point
I grew up drinking that and loved it. Now I know what it looks like under the
Microscope
You deserve payment of 1M bucks for this!!
I loved those here in Argentina too bad they stopped selling them here :(
Acá en México todavia los venden, son mis favoritos desde mi infancia
@@fanatp0stpanka Yendo a méxicooo
I love Yakult!! thats my childhood favorite drink!!☺☺ hi from Philippines
dude yakult was the lunchbox grail :sob:
gold of the lunch trading system
When I was a kid, I used to beg my mom to buy us Yakut; but she would say that Yakut and curd are the same and make us her version of Yakut(curd+water+honey)... Now after two decades, I'm giving the same answer to my 8 year old son and offering him the home made version😂😂😂
Why would you even bother? That’s so much work. Yakult is cheap.
Ooh, fresh!
You are evil
LOL, curd doesn't have the same probiotic as Yakult has.
There is no Yakut!! Please never ignore the L
I love yakult, it’s always a treat when I visit my mum and she has the 90 pack in the fridge from Costco
For the 9 year olds or younger or possibly older thinking that there’s actual bad bacteria in Yakult, dw. Probiotics are bacteria that help in the body’s digestion and basically keeps us healthy overall. It doesn’t cause any damage or problems to a rather healthy body. So, if you see any Probiotic labeling, it’s safe to eat/drink/use
Your work and his work. Amazing. Thank you for sharing this.
This is my best “medicine” whenever i have a bad stomach, here in the philippines our yakult’s tagline is “yakult everyday,everyday okay” and it is true!❤
As an Indian who never drank it but seen it advertised, thanks for making sure I never try it.
Plus I also found out it's by a Japanese company contrary to what I thought, I assumed it to be some Indian ayurveda mixture
My childhood drink, yum.
great video ( i put the yogurt in my rear entrance )
Huh😳😨
Best TH-cam comment I've seen in years
whuuuut
Hm?!
Sweet
You zoom strength is exactly where my front facing camera is placed.
Yakult is so popular here in the Philippines. I've been drinking that since childhood
Yakult every day makes everyday okay!
Sir lactobacillus (B12) is present in curd wright ?
Then fermented milk is it equal to curd ?
Please can you make me understand about this !
It's all just carefully spoiled milk.
Curd, yogurt, cheese.
It's all made out of the same thing.
@@daemonxblaze oh Oki thank you for replying 😊
I also appreciate the Yakult strategy to started selling It by delivering door by door. It made it cost way less for the masses.
Good for digestion. This drink is also popular in the Philippines, and me and my family usually drink it after a huge meal.
So is it good or not?
I drink it sometimes, and I'd say it's sweet and lightly citrus-y. It's pretty good in my opinion
Definitely!
@@InsaneGold well it contains literally the same thing as curd and milk and in our country we make fresh curd at home which also has the same thing uk.. the lacto basilus so yeah ig ... I just don't understand why my siblings likes it soo much
@@Usopper.D okk
Yea it's good
in Indonesia we mix yakult with soju or vodka. but i guess it would kill all those poor bacteria.
I was hoping for this for a long time. It finally happened.
I love drinking Yakult when I'm not feeling well, it makes me feel better immediately.
That would be the sugar
Dont let your own comment fooled you💯🙏🙏💯.. you're lying to yourself 💯😅👍👍💯
As a Filipino, I can say, This shit hit *DIFFERENT*
My filipina wife grew up drinking this. And still does so even today.
Love this stuff and now I love it more
yakult is bussin only , its not only the probiotics lmao
Drinking yakult since 1980's here in the philippines.
