Natural Yogurt
Natural/plain yogurt contains friendly bacteria that help with digestion and constipation. It is important to keep conditions like candida albicans (yeast over growth) under control by consuming friendly bacteria. When candida becomes a problem you are more likely to crave refined carbohydrates and sweet foods. Yogurt is an excellent source of calcium, much better than milk.
The bacteria have pre-digested the milk in the yogurt making process, ensuring it is much easier for us to digest & absorb
the calcium from yogurt as opposed to milk. A lot of people have problems with milk, so yogurt might be a better option for calcium. It is a good source of protein especially if you are a vegetarian.
Heating yogurt too much will destroy their friendly bacteria. For this reason add the yogurt after cooking has finished.
Eating yogurt has long been associated with a long and healthy life. Also freezing will destroy some of the bacteria.
A lot of yogurt is used in Indian cooking in various dishes.
