DO YOU KNOW THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN FERMENTED YOGHURT AND PROBIOTIC YOGHURT?
Fermented yoghurt and probiotic involve bacterial cultures, but probiotic yoghurt has specific strains of bacteria added for additional health benefits beyond basic fermentation.
Regular fermented yoghurt relies on the bacteria naturally present or added for fermentation, while probiotic yogurt intentionally includes strains like Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium known to have positive effects on gut health.
Fermented Yoghurt process:
Fermented yoghurt is made by culturing milk with bacteria, typically Streptococcus thermophilus and Lactobacillus bulgaricus, which convert lactose into lactic acid, resulting in the characteristic texture and tangy flavor.
Probiotic yoghurt:
While it contains live cultures, these are primarily the starter cultures needed for fermentation, not necessarily strains with specific probiotic benefits.
Benefits:
Fermentation improves lactose digestion, increases the bioavailability of some nutrients, and contribute to a healthy gut environment.
