Yogurt is a good source of calcium, protein, folic acid and magnesium. It has been used by millions of people in many countries for hundreds of years. You need between 100 to 200 grams of yogurt daily to lead a healthy life. Nowadays yogurt comes in different flavours and sizes. You can buy light, low fat, no-fat, organic or drinkable yogurt at the supermarket. You can also buy yogurt that tastes like ice cream. Yogurt has millions of friendly bacteria that protect your body against some cancers and boost the immune system. It also helps your body digest food.
You can make your own yogurt at home by adding bacterial cultures to milk. Just make sure you pasteurize the milk first. Pasteurizing milk means that you freeze it first then heat it to a high temperature. This will make sure that all harmful bacteria in milk are killed. The one bad thing about pasteurizing milk is that it kills good bacteria that your body needs too. That is why modern factories sometimes don’t use pasteurization in the making of yogurt. They kill harmful bacteria using alternative methods.
Always check the use by date on the container before eating yogurt. Many companies in Australia that produce yogurt have web sites that give additional information you can read online or download to your computer. They can also send you booklets if you contact them.
The good news for people who watch their weights is that yogurt is low in calories and is available all year round. Many people who regularly eat yogurt add more years to their lives.
