Is drinking yogurt equal to supplementing probiotics?
First of all, it must be clear that drinking yogurt does not mean supplementing probiotics.
Lactobacillus bulgaricus and Streptococcus thermophilus were added in yogurt production. These two kinds of lactic acid bacteria are beneficial to human body, but their effects are very limited. Some yogurts that focus on the concept of probiotics mainly contain beneficial bacteria such as Lactobacillus acidophilus and Bifidobacterium. If these probiotics are sufficient, it is indeed more advantageous than ordinary yogurt, but it is hard to say whether the survival rate is up to standard.
Therefore, although the nutritional value of yogurt is high, it is not enough to drink yogurt to supplement probiotics. You must take more high-quality professional probiotic products.
What are the benefits of probiotics to human body?
The benefits of probiotics to human body have become an indisputable fact. But in people's subconscious, probiotics are mainly used to regulate gastrointestinal discomfort. In fact, probiotics have many functions. Let's take a look at the unknown advantages of probiotics:
1, prevent or improve diarrhea: Bad eating habits or taking antibiotics will upset the balance of intestinal flora, which will lead to diarrhea.
2. Relieve the symptoms of lactose intolerance: Lactic acid bacteria can help the human body decompose lactose, relieve discomfort such as diarrhea and flatulence, and can be eaten with milk.
3. Enhance human immunity: Probiotics can regulate low or high immune activity to a normal state by stimulating the immune function in the intestine.
4. Reduce serum cholesterol: Probiotics can reduce serum cholesterol levels. In addition, long-term supplementation of probiotics can also help prevent bone loss and osteoporosis.
5. Promote the health of intestinal digestive system: Probiotics can inhibit the reproduction of harmful bacteria in the intestine, reduce toxins and promote intestinal peristalsis, thus improving intestinal function and defecation.
6. Help to absorb nutrition: If you ingest probiotics every day, you can not only inhibit the production of harmful intestinal flora, but also provide a good growth environment for beneficial intestinal bacteria and create a healthy intestine.
7. Prevention of reproductive system infection: Lactobacillus acidophilus and Ligafu bacteriostatic spray in yogurt can inhibit the reproduction of Candida albicans in vagina. Double-blind controlled trials in Europe have confirmed this. Patients were supplemented with active probiotics 10ml daily. The results show that the incidence of reproductive system infection is greatly reduced, and long-term supplementation of active probiotics is helpful to repair the microcirculation of reproductive system.
Everyone needs probiotics! Especially people with low immunity, such as the elderly, pregnant women and children. This kind of people have low immunity and are easy to get sick, especially children. Cold and fever are the biggest worries and headaches for all parents.
