Naked Launches Juices with Pre- and Probiotics
Naked says there are lots of probiotic strains—the one in Naked Juice Probiotic is called Bifidobacterium. Naked Juice Probiotic also contains a prebiotic, an added something to help stimulate the good bacteria that are already in the digestive tract.
06/09/07 Naked Juice is launching the first 100% juice smoothie with probiotics this month in the US - Naked Juice Probiotic.
The first product is Tropical Mango, a sweet, tropical all-natural 100% juice blend including mango, orange, and pineapple, with added probiotics and prebiotics.
Probiotics - microscopic cultures that aid in digestive and immune health - have been popular in Europe for several decades and now Americans, who are increasing looking to lead healthier lifestyles, are beginning to recognise their potential benefits. Naked Juice Probiotic is the first juice in the US to feature probiotics and prebiotics.
Naked says there are lots of probiotic strains—the one in Naked Juice Probiotic is called Bifidobacterium. Naked Juice Probiotic also contains a prebiotic, an added something to help stimulate the good bacteria that are already in the digestive tract.
The digestive system is filled with a hundred billion or so microflora. These micro-organisms work in concert to break down food into its useable nutrients. But the digestive system is also the body’s largest, most important immune system organ. Surprising, but true. The digestive system is responsible for the vast amount of the body’s immune defenses. In fact, a significant number of the body’s antibodies are created right there, and the microflora help with this process.
Naked says when the microflora are in balance, they help optimise digestion and immune functions. Probiotics can help skew the balance; they may increase the ratio of good bacteria in each person’s digestive system.
