Background
Henry Tissier- 1899 (@ Pasteur’s laboratory)
Discovered- Anaerobic lactic acid bacteria – Bacillus Bifidus
Found that the most predominant bacteria in the intestines of
breast-fed infants were Bacillus Bifidus
Ernst Moro- 1900 (Escherich’s Laboratory- Graz, Austria)
Discovered – Anaerobic Lactic acid bacteria – Bacillus Acidophilus
Elie Metchnikoff – 1900 ( Pasture’s institute 28yrs)
1908– Nobel prize for work on the immune system
wrote that Bulgarian peasants who consumed large amounts of
yogurt lived long, healthy lives
Dr. Mitsuoka - 1970’s
Demonstrated how the composition of intestinal flora changes
during our lifetime. First suggested probiotic supplementation
Since 1965
Udo’s Choice Probiotics
Background
• Why more Bifidobacteria when
we get older?
– Because, with age, the population of
Bifidobacteria in the colon has a
natural tendency to decrease while
Coliforms and Welch’s Bacilli colonies
are increasing.
– This is when the immune system
starts weakening and when the
incidence of colon related ailments
increases.
– People aged 45+ should therefore
regularly supply their colon with high
doses of Bifidobacteria in order to
prevent development and growth of
disease germs.
