My family's probiotics~ For adults, "Fresh Probiotics Lactofit Core," for children, "Desimone" and "Lactpido Probiotics."

These days, my husband and I are taking "Jongkundang Saeng Yosan Gyun Rattopit Core."

Jongkundang Lactofit is a four-month supply, so the Desimone Dual Stick Jang Care in the refrigerator is still unopened haha.

The children switched from eating "Desimone Kids Step 1" to Lactipodo Probiotics.

 

 

It's very famous, Jongkundang Lactofit~

The taste is good. It's also cost-effective.

Since I can buy at such good prices at Costco, I sometimes buy and eat there...

Recently, I purchased it at a special price during the CheongKwanDang Mall membership event and have been taking it diligently every day.

 

You need to pay attention to and take probiotics properly.

You know you must also check for the mark indicating certification as a "health functional food" approved by the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety, right?

If it's not a health functional food, then it's just a regular food.

 

Jongkundang Lactofit Core contains probiotics and zinc.

There are a total of 60 packets in this round container.

When taken out, they are packaged in 10-piece small packages~

 

The first thing I do every morning when I arrive at the company!

Taking out all the daily supplements and swallowing a packet of Lactofit!!

 

 

 

 

 

 

Lactofit Core also won the 2023 Korea Consumer Award.

This probiotic is so popular that it ranked first in South Korea in sales of health functional foods in 2020.

It's great that there are various types available, so people can eat them from infancy to adulthood.

The guarantee bacterial count has been doubled to 2 billion CFU, making it even more reliable than before.

 

Compared to the existing product, zinc has been added, the number of units has doubled, and it has been renewed, making it even better.

 

 

And our children have been eating Dr. Moné "Kids Step 1" since they were young.

Disimone... the price is too high, isn't it?

So I stocked up when the prices were good during 11th Street 11th Road Day or Gmarket Big Smile Day...

Once again, the price went up... Even with a discount, I can't buy it at the same price as before.

Disimone is so famous, and the probiotic count is also 20 billion...

So I want to buy and feed it often... but the price 부담 is overwhelming.

Moreover... this needs to be stored in the refrigerator ㅠ_ㅠ This is also one of the burdens.

Even if I order delivery, since we both work full-time, no matter how many ice packs I put in the styrofoam...

Feels like it's at room temperature... And it's really hard to carry around when traveling!!!

 

 

 

 

 

 

Desimone Kids Step, which guarantees a high content of beneficial bacteria at 20 billion to support intestinal health and contains zinc to help maintain normal immune function!

It's more reliable with refrigeration... but carrying it around is quite burdensome~

 

It's a good thing... but it's a burden, so I ate all the Dr. Mone last month and bought some in advance.

I am currently taking Rakpido Probiotics Kids Plus.

This... I saw the price was really good on Coupang's Gold Special Sale...

Let's take a break at Kids Dr. Simone and try this snack I bought..

This is also quite good. Of course, the quantity is smaller compared to Dr. Simone, haha.

 

    

 

Since the probiotic is 10 CFU... it's not as satisfying as Desimonebo, but...

It tastes like strawberry yogurt, so I think our second child will especially like it~

After finishing all this... the kids will have some more... and then I'll look for a hot deal again...

Or should I buy Lockpido again~

 

I introduced the nutritional supplements I’ve been taking lately to my family~~

And I'll give you the information I provided before once again~

 

Do you know the difference between probiotics and probiotics?

 

Prebiotics and probiotics are different, but they work synergistically.

Prebiotics and probiotics are both beneficial to health, but

The main difference between the two is their basic efficacy and the food sources where they can be found!!

Our cells contain millions of microorganisms called the microbiome, most of which are located in the digestive tract.It is also known as the gut microbiota.All these intestinal bacteria can be divided into two types: those that have beneficial effects and those that have harmful effects.

 

 

Bacteria that have a harmful effect can cause diarrhea, infections, or intestinal decay.

In contrast, beneficial bacteria help control harmful bacteria, stimulate the immune system, reduce gas, and improve digestion.

Additionally, the human body needs it to synthesize some vitamins and absorb certain nutrients.

Therefore, to maintain good health and a good mood, it is very important to keep the gut microbiota healthy and balanced.

In all these aspects, the roles of prebiotics and probiotics are as follows.

 

 

Main differences between prebiotics and probiotics

To maintain a healthy gut microbiota, you need to follow these two basic principles.

• It is provided as a probiotic to continuously supply living microorganisms within the body.
• Prebiotics are provided to offer beneficial foods to the microorganisms already present in the body.

Do you understand the difference?

Supply live microorganisms into the body! Provide good food for those microorganisms!!

 

Prebiotics, the 'food' for gut microbiota

Prebiotics are indigestible substances in food that can reach the colon intact.

Once inside the colon, it becomes food for the gut microbiota that possesses enzymes suitable for breaking it down.

It is said that by becoming food for the gut microbiota, it promotes the growth and activity of the microbiota, thereby improving the health of the host person.

To be considered a prebiotic, a food ingredient must meet the following three conditions.

1. It must not be broken down or absorbed in the stomach and small intestine.
2. It must be able to ferment by bacteria once it reaches the colon.
3. This fermentation should help promote the activity and proliferation of specific gut bacteria that provide beneficial effects to humans.

Currently, the most extensively studied prebiotics are various types of fibers found in plant foods, specifically fructooligosaccharides (FOS), galactooligosaccharides (GOS), and inulin!!

In addition to this, you can find prebiotics in the following foods~

• Onion,ReekSome fibers found in asparagus, artichokes, seeds (chia seeds, amaranth), potatoes, carrots, and apples are good prebiotics.
• Substances found in polyphenols of cocoa, berries, or spices
• Olive oil, nuts, orIn the fats of oily fishSubstance

 

What are probiotics?

Now that you know what prebiotics are, to fully understand the difference, let's learn about the concept of probiotics. The term 'probiotic' means 'live' or 'living organisms.'

The most widely accepted definition of probiotics has been formalized by the World Health Organization (WHO) and the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), and it specifies probiotics as follows.

Here, we are talking about providing bacteria themselves rather than nourishing bacteria. Most probiotics originate from bacteria used in food fermentation. The most extensively studied are those belonging to the Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium genera.

Probiotics are foods orThrough dietary supplementsYou can find it among them! Plain yogurt is one of the most popular and easily accessible probiotic foods.

Yogurt can be considered one of the most affordable probiotic-rich foods.Good plain yogurt containsBecause it contains both probiotics and streptococci, there is no need to add anything. Kefir is considered an ideal food because it contains a large amount of different bacterial strains.

Another good food source of probiotics issourcrowd, 피클 또는 오이 피클과 같은 발효 채소입니다. 우리 김치도 발효제품으로 프로바이오틱스가 많다고 하죠. 발효된 된장이나 발효된 콩인 템페와 같은 음식에도 많고요. 그리고.. 콤부차에도 있다는 새로운 사실도 알았네요 ㅎㅎ
