■ Recommended Comments from Experts

Health Exercise Instructor: Mr. Tatsuki Kobayashi

Q: Were there any changes?

'About 3 days after starting to drink it, I found it easier to fall asleep and woke up feeling refreshed in the morning. I no longer carried the heavy sluggishness from the previous day and felt clear. I clearly feel that my gut environment has improved.'

Q: Impact on performance?

'Perhaps because I felt well-rested, my concentration during the day improved. My work performance has also increased.'

Physical Therapist: Mr. Hiroki Seino

Q: What's your favorite way to drink it?

'While mixing it with carbonated water is refreshing, I especially recommend it with yogurt. The flavors pair perfectly, and it's also great as a daily 'gut activity' habit.'

Q: Were there any changes?

'Perhaps because my internal system improved, the heavy sluggishness when waking up in the morning was reduced. I can now spend my days more actively than before.'
