It may be that, yogurt is a panacea for all the complaints above.
Not only able to scrape the body weight, yogurt also claimed could ease the flu, as well as fend off irritable bowel syndrome.
Because the yogurt contains elements found in dietary supplements, such as probiotics and prebiotics. The two can complement each other to improve the system in the intestine.
Increase the number of beneficial probiotic bacteria needed by the intestine, while prebiotics provide food for beneficial bacteria that already exist in the gut, such as starch which can also be found in bananas, leeks, asparagus or chicory.
Results of recent studies say that the existence of 'good bacteria' in the gut would be useful against a variety of allergic diseases, such as eczema and asthma.
In fact, the findings of scientists from the Institute of Food Research, also claims that probiotics could increase immunity to the pollens of plants which usually triggers fever flu.
The digestive system is closely related to immunity. Therefore, some parts of the body's defense system within the intestine.
Good digestion, will be able to patch the 'leaky gut', ie allowing intestinal allergen proteins from digestion, seeping into the bloodstream.
Claire Williamson of the British Nutrition Foundation, revealed that probiotics can stabilize an unbalanced gut condition, due to consume antibiotics.
Probiotics can also help overcome the irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and constipation problems, diarrhea, cramps, and fatigue.
But be careful, most probiotic supplements are unable to meet outstanding claims of efficacy that is written on their labels.
According to Professor of Microbiology at the University of Readings, Glenn Gibson, a single dose should contain at least 10 million probiotic bacteria, to ensure the number of bacteria that can survive until the intestine, through the acids contained in the stomach.
While Claire Hanike, a dietitian from St. George's Hospital London, said, at least every probiotic supplement should contain at least one billion bacteria.
If not, the supplements would not be too effective for your intestinal problems. Now, instead of doubt, you better be drinking yogurt.
