Lactobacillus Technology Mark
HUMAN HEALTH
The Otemchi Biotechnologies Lactobacillus Technology Mark
Lactobacillus is good for people’s health. Studies by Lactobacillus researchers worldwide have shown the health benefits of consuming Lactobacillus. According to historical records, it all began more than a century ago when Russian biologist Ilya Ilyich (Élie) Metchnikoff, studied a group of Bulgarians who lived longer than the average European. Their diet was characterised by the consumption of large amounts of yoghurt – from which he isolated Lactobacillus, a good bacteria. He concluded that Lactobacillus was responsible for a large part of the beneficial influence on health and aging. Today, Lactobacillus is still relevant and widely recognised for its health benefits such as gut health, protection against potential food pathogens and overall wellness.
