Cook and Brew.

I used to avoid and abhor the sour taste of yogurt. But when my 19 month old son’s pediatrician included this in his dietary intake, my mindset changed because of the following benefits:

* Tolerance to Milk. According to studies, yogurt enhances lactose digestion in individuals with low intestinal levels of lactase which is the enzyme necessary to digest lactose or the milk’s sugar.

* Avoids Cancer. Yogurt improves the enzymes in intestine and liver and helps in the production of white blood cells. These helps fight off cancer (specifically colorectal cancer and possibly breast cancer) and improves one immunity.

* Balances Weight. It makes our digestion functions smoothly and prompts maximum nutrient absorbing.

* Prevents Diarrhea . It kills harmful bacteria in our intestines. A particular strain of bacteria used in yogurt, Lactobacillus strain GG, aids in treatment and prevention of antibiotic-associated diarrhea, traveler’s diarrhea, and acute diarrhea in children.

* Prevents Ulcers. It suppresses the growth of Helicobacter pylori, a known ulcer-inducing bacteria.

* Reduces Cholesterol. Good bacteria in yogurt absorbs the cholesterol in small intestine and also helps in decreasing cholesterol in blood.
