In 1930 Dr Minoru Shirota discovered a lactic acid bacterium that is able to survive our digestive juices and reach the intestines alive, to help maintain digestive balance. It was subsequently named in his honour, the Lactobacillus casei Shirota strain.
LcS is known to increase beneficial bacteria (i.e: bifidobacteria) inhabiting the intestines.
