    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    Not all probiotic products have the same health benefits. Different probiotics contain different strains and species of beneficial bacteria, and each strain may have different effects on the body. The health benefits of probiotics can vary depending on the specific strain and the individual's health condition. Therefore, it is important to choose probiotic products that are specifically targeted for the desired health benefits.

    True or False: It is impossible to know if a probiotic is beneficial without the genus, species, and strain name.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    Without the genus, species, and strain name of a probiotic, it is indeed impossible to determine its potential benefits. The effectiveness and specific health benefits of probiotics can vary greatly depending on the specific strain and combination of bacteria used. Different strains have different properties and functions within the body, so knowing the genus, species, and strain name is crucial in assessing its potential benefits. Without this information, it is difficult to make any informed judgments about the probiotic's efficacy.

    Correct Answer(s)

    A. May help boost your natural defenses.
    Explanation
    Yakult is a probiotic drink that contains beneficial bacteria, specifically Lactobacillus casei Shirota. These bacteria can help balance the digestive system by promoting the growth of healthy bacteria in the gut and improving digestion. Additionally, the probiotics in Yakult can boost the natural defenses of the body by strengthening the immune system. Therefore, drinking Yakult may have potential health benefits in terms of digestive health and immune function.

    Correct Answer(s)

    8 billion
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "Around 8 billion". This means that in every bottle of Yakult, there are approximately 8 billion live and active probiotic cultures guaranteed. The second option, "8 billion", is the same answer but without the word "Around". Both options indicate the same quantity of probiotic cultures in each bottle of Yakult.

    About how many bacteria do the average human intestines contain?

    • 10 billion

    • 100 billion

    • 10 trillion

    • 100 trillion

    Correct Answer
    A. 100 trillion
    Explanation
    The average human intestines contain approximately 100 trillion bacteria. This is because the intestines provide a favorable environment for bacteria to thrive, and they play a crucial role in digestion and overall gut health. The large number of bacteria helps in breaking down food, absorbing nutrients, and protecting against harmful pathogens. The diversity and balance of these bacteria are essential for maintaining a healthy gut microbiome, which has been linked to various aspects of human health, including immune function, metabolism, and mental well-being.

    True or False: The more cultures a probiotic product has in it, the better it is for you.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    The statement is false because the number of cultures in a probiotic product does not determine its effectiveness. The quality and diversity of the cultures are more important factors. A probiotic product with a few high-quality and diverse cultures may be more beneficial than one with numerous but less effective cultures. Therefore, it is not accurate to claim that the more cultures a probiotic product has, the better it is for you.

    A. Yogurt does not help intestinal health.
    A. Yogurt cultures are different than the cultures used in probiotic.
    Explanation
    Yogurt does not survive the harsh stomach acids, which means that the live cultures present in yogurt may not reach the intestines where they can provide health benefits. Additionally, yogurt does not help intestinal health, as it lacks the specific strains of bacteria that are known to promote a healthy gut. Lastly, the cultures used in yogurt are different from the cultures used in probiotics, suggesting that the two products contain different types of beneficial bacteria.
