Boost your digestive health with Fernleaf Cultured Milk Drink Probiotic+, which is the latest addition to its extensive range.

It is the only cultured milk drink in Malaysia that contains a powerful combination of three probiotics, namely Lactobacillus rhamnosus HN001 (DR20), Bifidobacterium animalis subsp. lactis (BB-12), and Lactobacillus acidophilus LA-5. These three scientifically proven probiotics support healthy gut function when taken regularly as part of a balanced diet and an active lifestyle.

According to Liew Yen Lee, Assistant Nutrition Manager of Fonterra Brands (Malaysia) Sdn Bhd,  “70% of our bodies’ immunity lies in our gut, which is constantly exposed to external ‘enemies’ like bacteria, viruses, and other foreign substances. Therefore, having a good gut environment is extremely important to support a strong body defence system, which needs to be ready to ward off any troublemakers that can affect the body or cause unwanted infections.” 

“When we get sick, bad bacteria take the opportunity to multiply and thrive in our bodies. Regular consumption of probiotics helps to improve gut function, keeping the good bacteria in our gut at a healthy level, so that the body can re-establish its natural equilibrium and keep the body defence system working normally” she added.

The Fernleaf Cultured Milk Drink Probiotic+ is created in collaboration with probiotic experts from Chr. Hansen to provide effective digestive benefits to consumers. Megawati Suzari, New Product Development (NPD), Scientific & Regulatory Affairs Director, Fonterra Brands (Malaysia) Sdn. Bhd. said that “The benefits of the three probiotic strains used in this cultured milk drink are backed by science, and have been rigorously researched in many scientific studies, making it suitable across all ages. As a family brand, Fonterra aims to support all adults’ and childrens’ gut function. When your gut is working well, it not only helps maintain good body defence system, but also encourages regular bowel movement, effective digestion, and nutrient absorption.”

“That’s why Fernleaf Cultured Milk Drink Probiotic+, with three types of probiotics, offers a convenient and affordable way to help replenish good bacteria in the gut. With the increase in disease emergence, the most recent being COVID-19, supporting our body defence system has never been more important. Though we have stepped into an endemic phase and COVID-19 is no longer life-threatening thanks to the advancement in medical technology, we hope that Malaysians will continue to watch their health, as good health helps all of us enjoy a better quality of life,” she explained.

Fernleaf Cultured Milk Drink Probiotic+ which is priced at RM4.35 is now available at 99 Speed Mart and AEON in West Malaysia.
