Description
Happy Birth Aojiru Enzyme × Yeast — 3 g × 25 Sachets
Overview
青汁酵素×酵母 from Happy Birth Co., Ltd. is a barley-grass base carrying two fermentation extracts, two yeasts and collagen peptide. The maker states the ferment is concentrated tenfold, at 2000 mg per 3 g sachet.
About the number in the name: 201 is a total, not an extra. Happy Birth declares a plant fermentation extract built on 90 inputs and a wild-grass fermentation extract built on 111. Ninety plus one hundred and eleven is two hundred and one. If you see 291 quoted for this product anywhere, that is the 90 and the 201 added together by mistake.
The wild-grass extract is declared as containing apple and Japanese yam — both are on Japan's declarable allergen list.
Aojiru (青汁) is the Japanese name for a powdered green drink, usually made from young barley grass or kale, that is stirred into water or milk and drunk once a day. It is sold in Japan as an ordinary food, not as a medicine: the point is to add vegetable material and dietary fibre to a diet that is short of both, in a format that takes fifteen seconds. Nothing on this page should be read as a treatment for any condition.

Who Is This For?
- Someone who wants the ferment-and-yeast style of aojiru rather than a plain green powder
- People already familiar with Japanese kōso (enzyme) products who know what they are buying
- Anyone who wants collagen in the same sachet rather than as a second product
- Not for you if you react to apple — birch-pollen oral allergy syndrome makes apple a common trigger across northern Europe, and it is declared here
- Not for you if you react to yam, or if you need to know the animal source of the collagen — the maker does not publish it
How to Use
- Tear open one sachet.
- Pour 100 ml of cold or room-temperature water into a glass or shaker.
- Add the powder and stir or shake until no lumps remain. A shaker gives the cleanest result; barley-grass powder resists a spoon.
- Drink it straight away — the powder settles within a minute or two.
- The maker specifically suggests apple juice or milk as alternatives to water for this one.
Frequency: One sachet a day. It is a food, so there is no course to complete and no loading period.
Ingredients & Nutrition
Ingredients, in the maker's declared order (source: Happy Birth product page and retail listings reproducing the 原材料名 line): barley grass powder, water-soluble plant fibre, glucose, plant fermentation extract containing 90 inputs, wild-grass fermentation extract containing 111 inputs (contains apple and Japanese yam), torula yeast, brewer's yeast, collagen peptide.
Three notes. The collagen peptide's animal source is not published by the maker, so we cannot tell you whether it is fish, bovine or porcine. Brewer's yeast is the spent yeast left over from brewing and is not itself alcoholic — we state that as a fact and leave any dietary or religious judgement to you. And the declared list contains no colours and no flavourings, so the point stands — though it follows from reading the declaration, not from a guarantee by the maker.
Two things this product is often said to do, it does not. Plant-ferment enzymes do not participate in antibody production: antibodies are made by B lymphocytes, and dietary ferments are digested as protein and carbohydrate before they go anywhere. And Happy Birth makes no claim that swallowed collagen maintains tissue strength or elasticity — neither do we.
Nutrition panel. The maker does not publish one for this product online. We are not reconstructing it from a category average — the declaration is printed on the box you receive, and if you need it before ordering, write to us and we will read it off a box in Kobe.

FAQ
Is it 201 enzymes or 291?
201, and they are fermentation inputs rather than enzymes in the biochemical sense. Happy Birth declares 90 plant inputs and 111 wild-grass inputs; 90 plus 111 is 201. Adding the 90 to the 201 is where the figure 291 comes from, and it is double counting.
What kind of collagen is in it?
Happy Birth declares "collagen peptide" without naming the animal. We have not found a source that does. If you need to know whether it is fish, bovine or porcine — for dietary, religious or allergy reasons — this is not a product we can clear for you today.
Does the brewer's yeast mean it contains alcohol?
No. Brewer's yeast is the yeast recovered after brewing and is used as a dried ingredient; it is not an alcoholic component. We state the fact and leave the dietary or religious decision to you.
Why does it list apple and yam?
Because the wild-grass fermentation extract is built partly from them, and Japanese labelling requires both to be declared. Apple in particular matters in northern Europe, where birch-pollen oral allergy syndrome makes it a frequent trigger.
Can I take it with a separate collagen supplement?
You can, but check the total. This already contains collagen peptide, and the maker does not publish how much, so you would be stacking an unknown quantity on top of a known one.
