We’re not talking about the yoghurt done by FanIce. Yoghurt is produced by bacterial fermentation of milk. The bacteria used to make yogurt are known as “yogurt cultures”. There are several benefits of eating yoghurt every morning.

We share some below

Good for bones

A bowl of yogurt has 300 grams of calcium. Therefore, if you are worried about your debilitating bone health, it’s always good to add yogurt to your diet. It will not only maintain your bone density but also strengthen them. For the elderly who are at risk of osteoporosis, a cup of yogurt daily after lunch is a healthy option.

Faster workout recovery

Yoghurt has the perfect ratio of protein and carbohydrate and is a brilliant post workout snack. If you have a bowl of yogurt within 60 minutes of your workout, it releases amino acids that help repair muscles. Have a glass of water with your yogurt and it improves the absorption of water by intestines – thereby enhancing your hydration.

Controls blood pressure

Salt is the main culprit behind high blood pressure. Therefore, if not monitored high BP can lead to serious health complications such as hypertension and kidney disease. The potassium present in yogurt helps eradicate excess of sodium from our bodies.

Builds immunity

The probiotics present in yogurt works on building your immunity and lowers your chances of contracting various illnesses. Probiotics are proven to work on strengthening gut health. Yogurt also has zinc and other minerals that are absolutely essential for good health.
