It is not advisable to drink yogurt on an empty stomach. The survival of Lactobacillus acidophilus is closely related to the PH value in the gastrointestinal tract. According to the results of bacteriological culture test in medical research department, Lactobacillus acidophilus grows and reproduces well in the environment above PH 5.4, but it is difficult to survive below PH 2. For example, if you drink yogurt on an empty stomach, the PH value of gastric juice is generally around 2, and Lactobacillus acidophilus will be killed or its vitality will be seriously reduced, thus failing to achieve the health care effect that yogurt should have. Therefore, the most suitable time to drink yogurt should be within 2 hours after meals. At this time, the PH value of gastric juice has generally risen to about 5, which is more suitable for the survival and growth of Lactobacillus acidophilus, thus contributing to its unique health care function.
