What should I know about probiotic yogurt?

One issue that confuses many consumers is that of probiotics in yogurt. As opposed to what most television and print advertising would have you believe, all yogurt contains live active cultures. The people who manufacture "probiotic" yogurt, however, claim that the bacteria in their products are more likely to survive digestion and make it to the colon.

Many of these companies have trademarked the bacteria they use, and they believe their studies justify their claims of superiority to regular yogurt. Experts are divided on the issue of whether probiotic yogurt is more effective than regular yogurt, and more studies need to be done comparing the two. While it's true that any yogurt with live cultures might ease some digestive ills, that doesn't necessarily mean that products labeled probiotic yogurt are superior.

One thing to be aware of is other ingredients that may be added to these products, such as high levels of sweeteners like high-fructose corn syrup and/or sugar. More commercial yogurts and yogurt drinks usually have the most sugar, so you may want to stick with unsweetened natural yogurt. Try adding fresh fruit or a touch of honey for sweetness.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
