0:05.8 | Researchers at Yachtolt have been delving into the secrets of probiotics for 90 years. |
0:11.0 | Yacold also partners with nature portfolio to advance gut microbiome science through the global grants for gut health, an investigator-led research program. |
0:19.6 | To learn more about Yachtolt, visit yawcult.co.j.p. |
0:23.9 | That's y-A-K-U-L-T dot-C-O-J-P. |
0:28.4 | When it comes to a guide for your gut, count on YacLt. |
