1, you can lose weight by drinking yogurt.
(1) Dairy products are rich in calcium. Supplementing foods rich in calcium can prevent blood pressure from rising, which is very beneficial to prevent cardiovascular diseases. Dairy products and calcium also have the effect of losing weight. On the premise of not increasing the total calorie of the diet, increasing the intake of calcium in the diet can significantly reduce the proportion of fat in the human body and reduce the probability of obesity.
(2) Animal experiments also found that calcium supplementation with inorganic calcium such as calcium carbonate can also prevent obesity, but the effect is obviously different from dairy products, especially low-fat yogurt. Experts believe that there may be other substances in dairy products that are beneficial to fat decomposition.
(3) Drinking yogurt after meals can also activate digestive enzymes in the stomach, thus accelerating gastrointestinal peristalsis and reducing fat. Don't forget to do more abdominal breathing, thin waist and abdominal muscle exercise and eat snacks. Eating snacks will only make you fatter.
2. Eight Benefits of Drinking Yogurt
(1) Prevent colds
Eating yogurt can reduce the probability of upper respiratory tract infection 12%. People who drink yogurt regularly have a much lower chance of catching a cold than those who don't drink yogurt regularly.
(2) promoting digestion
Women with indigestion can usually drink yogurt in moderation, which can promote the secretion of gastric juice, thus improving appetite and strengthening digestion.
(3) Prevention of constipation
Many women have constipation. You may not know that preventing constipation is one of the benefits of women drinking yogurt. Yogurt produces a large number of short-chain fatty acids to promote intestinal peristalsis and a large number of bacteria growth, thus changing osmotic pressure and preventing constipation.
(4) Reduce the irritation to acne and relieve acne symptoms.
Yogurt is rich in high-activity inorganic mineral trace elements such as zinc, and some derivatives of vitamin A and vitamin E, which is helpful to transform and excrete some toxic substances in the body, reduce the irritation to acne, relieve acne symptoms and help to heal.
(5) Prevention of osteoporosis
Adequate nutrients play a key role in the prevention and treatment of osteoporosis, and trace elements such as calcium and vitamin D are the most critical. Yogurt provides high vitamin D, and the combination of calcium and vitamin D has more obvious benefits for bones.
(6) improve immunity
Yogurt containing a large number of active bacteria is helpful to improve lactose intolerance, constipation, diarrhea, enteritis, helicobacter pylori infection and other diseases. The Human Nutrition Research Center of the US Department of Agriculture is conducting research on the elderly at Tufts University. Researcher Gene Mayer said that yogurt can not only improve the intestinal environment, but also improve human immunity. Coincidentally, a recent study in Taiwan Province Province also found that yogurt can improve the therapeutic effect of some anti-inflammatory drugs.
(7) Office workers drink yogurt in the afternoon to prevent radiation.
For those office workers who sit still in front of the computer after lunch and are always covered by electromagnetic radiation, drinking a cup of yogurt at lunch time is very beneficial to their health. In addition, drinking yogurt in the afternoon can also relieve tension and work pressure.
Studies have pointed out that vitamin B can improve the body's ability to resist radiation damage, and yogurt rich in B vitamins just plays this advantage. Yogurt can also reduce radiation damage and inhibit the decrease of lymphocyte number after radiation. Tyrosine in yogurt is very helpful to relieve people's fatigue caused by excessive psychological pressure, high tension and anxiety. After lactic acid bacteria fermentation, protein, peptides, amino acids and other particles in yogurt become tiny, and the content of free tyrosine is greatly increased, making it easier to absorb. Drinking a cup of yogurt at lunch or after lunch can make office workers relax and be full of energy all afternoon, which is more conducive to improving work efficiency.
(8) Prevention of gynecological infection
For women with diabetes, yeast infection in female private parts is a common problem. A small study found that diabetic female patients with chronic yeast infection, as long as they drink 200 ml of sweet yogurt every day, can reduce the pH value of female private parts from 6.0 to 4.0 (the normal value is 4.0-4.5), and the yeast infection will also decrease.
3. When is the best time to drink yogurt?
(1) Drink yogurt in the morning to absorb nutrition.
Nutrition is most needed in the morning, but you can't drink it on an empty stomach. It can be mixed with some coarse grains, bread and eggs, which can effectively absorb the nutrients in yogurt.
(2) Drink yogurt two hours after meals.
After eating yogurt, the gastric juice is diluted and the pH value rises to 3-5. This environment is very suitable for the growth of lactic acid bacteria, especially drinking yogurt within 2 hours after meals, and the effect is the best.
(3) Drink yogurt to supplement calcium at night.
According to research, yogurt is a good source of calcium in food. From the point of calcium supplementation, it is more beneficial to drink yogurt at night. According to experts, the blood calcium content of human body is the lowest from evening to early morning 12, which is beneficial to the absorption of calcium in food. At the same time, there are few factors that affect the calcium absorption of human body during this period. Although milk also contains high calcium, compared with it, lactic acid contained in yogurt can combine with calcium and promote its absorption.
4. Precautions for drinking yogurt
(1) Don't drink yogurt on an empty stomach.
On an empty stomach, the ph value of human gastric juice is below 2, while the ph value of lactic acid bacteria in yogurt is above 5.4. If you drink yogurt on an empty stomach, lactic acid bacteria will be killed by gastric acid, and their nutritional value and health care function will be greatly reduced. After meals, the gastric acid is diluted, and the ph value is 3-5, which is suitable for the growth of lactic acid bacteria, so please remember to drink yogurt within 2 hours after meals, and the effect is the best.
(2) Don't heat and drink yogurt.
Once the yogurt is heated, the lactic acid bacteria contained in it will be killed by high temperature, and the physical characteristics will change, resulting in precipitation, and the unique taste of yogurt will disappear. Without lactic acid bacteria, the nutritional value and health care function of yogurt are also reduced, so yogurt cannot be heated. You can buy and eat now in summer and drink at room temperature in winter.
(3) Rinse your mouth with boiling water after drinking yogurt
Some bacteria and acidic substances in yogurt can cause some harm to teeth. Especially for children, if they don't gargle in time after drinking yogurt, it is particularly easy to cause dental caries. Therefore, after drinking yogurt or lactic acid bacteria drinks, rinse your mouth with boiling water in time.
(4) Don't take medicine with yogurt.
Taking medicine with yogurt instead of boiling water is taboo, so don't do it. Antibiotics such as chloramphenicol and erythromycin and drugs for diarrhea will destroy and kill lactic acid bacteria in yogurt.
In short, when drinking yogurt at ordinary times, as long as we pay attention to the above four aspects, long-term adherence to scientific yogurt is of great benefit to health and weight loss.
