Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis CAB701 strain having both anti-obesity and immune-promoting activities, an anti-obesity or immune-enhancing food composition containing the same, and an anti-obesity or immune-enhancing vegan fermented milk containing the same. The CAB701 strain of the present disclosure has pancreatic lipase inhibitory activity and can be widely utilized for preventing, ameliorating or treating obesity and for enhancing immunity. Furthermore, it can be used as a starter for fermentation. In addition, since a vegan fermented milk prepared with the CAB701 strain of the present disclosure exhibits a significantly slower decrease in the viable Lactobacillus cell count during the storage period as compared to vegan fermented milks prepared with conventional strains, it can be seen that the CAB701 strain of the present disclosure is useful in the preparation of a vegan fermented milk.
