In additon to the active cultures added to milk to make yogurt (Streptococcus thermophilus and Lactobacillus
bulgaricus), Yoptimal® contains two strains of active
probiotic cultures, BB-12®
Bifidobacterium lactis and LA-5® Lactobacillus
acidophilus. Every 100g serving of Yoptimal®
contains more than 1 billion probiotics of each of these strains. Scientists from Yoplait's Research & Developement team
selected these two stains among those recognized for their proven benefits on intestinal flora.

The active probiotic cultures of Yoptimal®, BB-12®
Bifidobacterium lactis and LA-5® Lactobacillus
acidophillus, can survive passage through the gastrointestinal tract (4).
As part of its commitment to quality, Yoplait's team ensures that
there are more than one billion active cultures of each BB-12® Bifidobacterium
lactis and LA-5® Lactobacillus acidophillus
per 100g serving of Yoptimal® throughout its shelf life.
According to studies, this quantity is sufficient to promote healthy instestinal flora.
