The yoghurt includes five patented microorganisms derived from womens’ breast milk, which, Puleva said, matches its immunological, diarrhoea and allergy-prevention benefits.


Puleva’s functional-foods unit Puleva Biotech developed the product and is negotiating its sale with other food companies worldwide, a company spokeswoman confirmed.


Puleva also plans to launch adult dairy products based on the technology.
 
Max Defensas is now available across Spain. It comes in 90-gram bottles featuring plain and strawberry flavours, the spokeswoman said.
