Over 99% of intestinal bacteria reside in the colon, which is an anaerobic environment. Following the initial 3-years of aerobic fermentation, some of the material is transferred to the large 10,000-gallon anaerobic fermentation vats shown below for an additional 2-years of anaerobic fermentations. The two additional years of anaerobic fermentation increase the postbiotic metabolites produced by anaerobic bacteria. This becomes Dr. Ohhira’s Probiotics Professional Formula

The name Dr. Ohhira’s Probiotics is somewhat confusing. It does contain small number of probiotic bacteria and some prebiotics, but most of the product consists of over 500 postbiotic metabolites that are created during the multi-year fermentation production process. Dr. Ohhira’s Probiotics is the #1 product in the world for the direct delivery of postbiotic metabolites.
That’s The Dr. Ohhira’s Advantage…!
