Yakult Honsha Co., Ltd., Torrance, CA, has announced the acquisition of self-affirmed GRAS (Generally Recognized as Safe) status for its exclusive probiotic strain, Lactobacillus casei strain Shirota in the United States. This probiotic strain is found in Yakult’s products, such as Yakult, a cultured probiotic drink with dairy. An independent panel of U.S. experts in toxicology, nutrition and molecular biology has rigorously evaluated research studies and toxicology data on Lactobacillus casei strain Shirota, and concluded that this strain is safe for use as a food ingredient.
