Each strain has
its own unique story
The function of probiotics is determined not by the “type of probiotic,” but by the
unique capabilities of each individual Strain.
After 50 years of continuous strain research, we have built a strain library of approximately 5,000 varieties and
secured 99 proprietary Strain Numbers.

The criteria for choosing probioticsThe criteria for
choosing probiotics
starts with checking
the Strain Numbers
With research on strains, the smallest unit of life,
hy scientifically identifies the unique functions and roles that differ from Strain to Strain,
even within the same species of probiotics.

From the verification of functional properties and safety to clinical trials,
patent applications, and the publication of scientific papers,
each Strain undergoes years of rigorous research
before being assigned a Strain Numbers.

Numbers for which patents/papers were registered prior to the establishment of the Strain Numbers classification standards are controlled separately.

International standards are also based on “Strain”.International standards are also based on “Strain”.In their probiotics guidelines in 2002, the FAO and WHO
suggested that to express effects, genus, species, and Strain
must be clearly distinguished.

The difference in probiotics
begins with the strain.
Even bacteria with the same name
have different characteristics and roles depending on the Strain.
