Winter season when it is easy to get sick. You will want to be more careful about nutrition and take care of your body than usual. I bought "Shield Lactic Acid Bacteria Chocolate" and "Shield Lactic Acid Bacteria Tablets" from Morinaga & Co., which I often saw at supermarkets and drug stores recently.

"Shielded lactic acid bacteria" are lactic acid bacteria selected from the thousands of strains owned by Morinaga Milk Industry. It is said that it was named with the image of protecting enemies from the outside like a shield. "Shield Lactic Acid Bacteria Chocolate" contains 10 billion pieces per bag, and "Shield Lactic Acid Bacteria Tablets" contains 10 billion pieces per 3 tablets. Let's try it in order.


"Shield Lactic Acid Bacteria Chocolate" is a cubic quasi-chocolate with a side of about 1.2 cm. After a slightly crispy texture, the strong sweetness and cacao flavor spread throughout the mouth. It's relatively smooth and easy to eat. One bag contains 50g (1.76oz) and the total calories are 272kcal. Since the sweetness is strong, each grain is highly satisfying, so you don't have to inadvertently eat too much.




"Shield Lactic Acid Bacteria Tablet" is a yogurt-flavored tablet confectionery. It is about 2 cm in diameter and is individually wrapped. It features a strong acidity that spreads instantly when you touch your tongue. It has a firm texture, so you can enjoy it by licking it slowly or by chewing it crisply. Contains 21 standard tablets per bag. The calorie per grain is 6 kcal.



Being careful about your diet and getting enough rest are the top priorities, but chocolates and tablets that may give you a little more confidence in your health. If you see it at the store, why not take it in your hand? The selling price (tax included) at the supermarket I went to was 145 yen for "Shield Lactic Acid Bacteria Chocolate" and 181 yen for "Shield Lactic Acid Bacteria Tablets".
