Low Fat YOGHURT Drink-FLAVORED / PLAIN and other DAIRY PRODUCTS

Did you know that there are more bacteria in your body than there are human cells? The health benefits of yoghurt are many and yoghurt should be included in your diet.
Yoghurt, is milk to which cultures of bacteria are added. The bacteria consume the sugar in the milk for energy and excrete lactic acid which curdles the milk. Yoghurt that contains "active cultures" or live bacteria is the one that is brimming with health benefits.
Yoghurt has been used for centuries as a multi purpose healer but its only been in the last century that scientists have discovered just how beneficial yoghurt is.

About 70 percent of your body's immune cells reside in the gut, so it stands to reason that a healthy gastrointestinal tract means a healthy immune system. The live cultures found in certain yoghurts work by populating the gastrointestinal tract with friendly bacteria to ward off the bad bugs.

Here are some of the health benefits of yoghurt:

Protect the bladder- Yoghurt can assist women who suffer from urinary tract infections

Strengthen immunity- eating two tubs of live yoghurt a day can assist the immune system in fighting off germs
