Forefront of lactic acid bacteria research

Findings from 1073R-1 lactic acid bacteria research

(1) A human-subject study conducted in Yamagata and Saga prefectures indicates that consumption of yogurt containing 1073R-1 lactic acid bacteria reduces the risk of catching colds and increases NK activity.

(2) A study indicates that feeding mice with 1073R-1 lactic acid bacteria increases their NK activity level.

(3) A study on mice’s influenza infection suggests that 1073R-1 lactic acid bacteria help prevent influenza.

(4) A human-subject study indicates that continuous ingestion of 1073R-1 lactic acid bacteria may improve the efficacy of influenza vaccines.

(5) A study finds that ingestion of yogurt containing 1073R-1 lactic acid bacteria increases IgA in saliva that reacts with the influenza A (H3N2) variant virus.

(6) [NEW] It was confirmed that ingestion of yogurt containing OLL1073R-1 lactic acid bacteria may suppress the temporary decline in immune function and maintain good physical condition in people at high risk of weakened immune function.
