The amazing Health Benefits of Yogurt

The amazing Health Benefits of Yogurt

Yogurt is a Healthy Choice

Yogurt is a extraordinary food because it is a refined milk product, made by adding certain "friendly" or “good” bacteria called probiotics to milk to make a thicker and more textured item. These “good” bacteria are live active cultures that are alike to the ones that already survive in the human digestive tract. They help sustain and restore the fragile balance of both "good" and "bad" bacteria essential for a healthy digestive system.

Yogurt and Lactose Intolerance

People who are quite lactose intolerant can enjoy yogurt. Yogurt contains lesser amounts of lactose than milk as the lactose in the milk used to make yogurt is changed to lactic acid through the bacterial cultures. Various forms of lactic acid bacteria added when manufacturing yogurt, acidophilus milk and fermented milk products, such as kefir, can help reduce the effects of lactose intolerance.
