My 1st attempt in making Yoghurt

Today is my first attempt in making Home-made Yoghurt. Eureka !! It works…

WHAT IS YOGHURT?

 

Yoghurt is a form of lactic acid or fermented milk. It can be prepared from cow's milk, goat's milk or Soya milk, with Yogourmet starter which contains friendly bacteria (L. Bulgaricus, S.Thermophilus, L. Acidophilus). Yoghurt has been used since Biblical times as a food and to eradicate intestinal putrefaction and autointoxication. The Newlife Yoghurt Maker features precise automatic temperature control throughout the fermentation process, ensuring quality yoghurt every time.

BENEFITS OF YOGHURT

 

  • Rich in predigested protein and easily assimilated calcium and other minerals.
  • Beneficial in relieving constipation. Clears up symptoms of colitis and bowel diseases, fights urinary tract infection, bladder infection, anemia, hormonal imbalance and skin problems.
  • Aids the body in the manufacturing of the B Vitamins.
  • Resolves bad breath, gas and indigestion.
    If yoghurt should cause temporary intestinal gas, it is an indication that the body's need for it is great. The beneficial bacteria of yoghurt is waging war with the health - destroying bacteria already residing there. Discomforts disappear when the beneficial bacteria multiply sufficiently.
  • Restores the intestinal floral (friendly bacteria) destroyed by antibiotic therapy and meat eating.
  • Effective in controlling antibiotic induced gastrointestinal symptoms, e.g. diarrhea.
  • It has bactericidal value.
    An eight oz jar of yoghurt has an antibiotic value equivalent to fourteen penicillin units. The most potent yoghurt for antibiotic factors is that which is 7 days old.
  • Helpful in cases of Candida and vaginal yeast infection.
    · Helps cure anal itching.
  • Yoghurt reduces cholesterol and thus risk for heart disease.
  • Prevents Estrogen levels in women.
  • Prevents osteoporosis and dental disease.
  • Prevents "Tourista" - diarrhea experienced by the travellers as a result of foreign bacteria in the food and water.
  • It strengthens the immune system.
