Yogurt (:

Reasons why you should eat yogurt daily:

1) Contributes to colon health- yoghurt contains lactobacteria that fosters a healthy colon, and lowers risk of colon cancer. And it has a rich source of calcium which discourages excess growth of the cells lining the colon, which can place a person at high risk of colon cancer.

2) Improves bioavailability of other nutrients- it increases the absorption of calcium and B-vitamins

3) Boost immunity- the bacterial cultures in yogurt stimulate infection-fighting white cells in the bloodstream.

4) Aids healing after intestinal infections

5) Decrease vaginal yeast infections

6) Excellent source of protein

7) Lower cholesterol

One 8 ounce cup of yogurt provides around 400mg of calcium, which is more than 300mg in an 8 ounce glass of milk.

Woohoooo! I eat yogurt daily because it’s really yummy and healthy, but didn’t realise there are so many benefits of yogurt until i read a medical article. So, make this dairy food a regular in your diet if possible!
