Radiation protection effect 1Radiation protection effect of NKG Kefir (Nagasaki University )

Seven-week-old rats were allowed free water intake of NKG Kefir for 12 days, and a control group allowed free water intake was subjected to X-ray whole-body irradiation, and after 2 hours, counts of the number of apoptosis in the colon were compared.
In the NKG Kefir group, small intestine crypt radiation-induced apoptosis was significantly suppressed 2 hours after irradiation.
NKG Kefir was found to have radiation-induced apoptosis-suppressing effects on colon at doses up to 1 Gy.
