Yogurt & Probiotics
The origins of yogurt are not entirely known. In India, yogurt is called “food of the gods”; Persian folklore says Abraham owed his ability to reproduce and live to a ripe old age to his diet of yogurt. Regardless of the myths surrounding this milk and lactic acid based confection, we know it helps control our weight. Yogurt is rich in protein, riboflavin, calcium, B6 and B12; yogurt also contains probiotics, which are “good” bacteria found in yogurt that help balance body functions.

Natural Skincare
As part of a beauty regime, yogurt moisturizes and provides natural proteins, minerals and vitamins that help to nourish stressed, dry skin. Those of us who believe in DIY natural skincare advocate using facials made with plain yogurt, lemon juice and honey for acne. The acidity of the yogurt helps draw out impurities and excess oil in your skin. According to Dr. Ellen Marmur, associate professor of Dermatology and Genetics at the Mount Sinai School of Medicine in New York City, “there is good and bad bacteria on our skin… if the balance is off-kilter it can result in acne or rosacea.”

Posted at 14:56h, 20 JulyI sure do. I do yogurt facials and I get a different type of probiotics for internal. Since I do not do dairy I do fermented foods and kombucha which is even better than yogurt.
