So, finally! what is probiotics?
Probiotics are part of microbes that are working to protect your body. We can say good bacteria.
Many daily food contains Probiotics. Yogurt, Kmobucha, Kimchi. It provides good bacteria.
Is that all? No. Probiotics can do much more things if you know its Strain.
What is Strains?
Here's an example of good probiotics with strain information
We can say strains are description of bacteria species, as defined by code.
Let me show you an example. You will see a lot like this codes when you see probiotics product.
- Lactobacillus Plantarum MG989
- Lactobacillus Salivarius MG242
- Lactobacillus Fermentum MG901
- Lactobacillus Paracasei MG4272
The product says it's good because it's containing those example codes. But really, have thought of what is it?
Lactobacillus - Probiotics Genus
Plantarum, Salivarius, Fermentum, Paracasei - Probiotics Species
MG989, MG242, MG901, MG4272 - Probiotics Strains
Among all Genus and species, the "Strain" explains what its specific function is.
So, before buying product, please check what Strains are used in the product!
For example, phytotics yellow contains MG989 strain. But what's it's function?
MG989 work as Antifungal of Gardnerella Vaginalis (Harm bacteria cause bad smell in women genital) 98.9% / of Candida Albican (Harm bacteria cause itching) 99.9%
There are tones of probiotics products, and all products have different strains.
Since it contains different strains, its function is different.
Hope you will find good probiotics products that are fit to your condition!
