Requesting Scientific Info About Yakult & Vitagen

Voidition — Tue, 01 Feb 2011 00:35:44 +0800

Good day everyone.

I've been doing my own informal research regarding the strains used in Yakult and Vitagen. But I need more information than I can find now.
So far, among what I know is:
- Yakult uses Lactobacillus casei Shirota.
- Vitagen uses Lactobacillus casei and Lactobacillus acidophilus.
- There are 8 billions L. casei Shirota per 80ml bottle of Yakult.

Now what I'm looking for is information about how much of the bacterial strains exist in each bottle of Vitagen, as well as scientific information (from researches) about the strengths and survivability of L. casei Shirota, L. casei, and L. acidophilus (and any other strains such as L. bulgaricus, Streptococcus thermophilus, etc.).

I've done my research on the net, but I can't really find the specific info that I'm looking for: strengths and survivability.

If anyone has these info, please kindly share with me.
Very much appreciated.

Is it okay for females to slap males?

You know how we see girls in movies and anime and manga slap guys across the face for whatever good and bad and stupid reasons?
I just want to know is this actually happening in real life?

How come the society seems to think that it's okay for girls to slap guys?
The common justification is that males are physically stronger and females are physically weaker so it wouldn't cause much damage if a girl slap a guy.
I don't know why but it sounds so funny to me! It's not about who slapping who. It's about the "right" to slap. I'm not talking about protection and self-defense. If it's to prevent a rapist-to-be from doing what he wants, if it's to stop someone from intentionally touching you in weird places, fine, go ahead and slap and kick all you want. In those situations I would say the guys deserve it. Otherwise, is it acceptable?

I've heard that in foreign countries, the US for example, if a woman is to slap a man, the woman has to bear the risk of being charged with assault.
Is there such a law in our country? Have any cases like this happened before in history?

Sometimes (but quite rarely) a female friend of mine would ask me to do something, but that something is somewhat unreasonable, so I would decline. Then she would say, "Like that you not gentleman already.." I replied, smiling, "I never said I am."
Seriously, I really don't give a d*mn about this "gentleman" stuff. Aren't they fighting for gender equality? They ask for it, they get it. I'm all into gender equality.

One thing I find very amazing is that girls deny that they're the weaker sex (yes, they really are not "weaker", except physically), but they love to be treated as if they were! Why ya?!

What's happening in this world nowadays?

P.S.
I've NEVER EVER been slapped before by any one girl. So please don't assume that I've been slapped. Oh... and I've also never ever slapped any girl before.
