Rumor: Drinking yogurt after meals is good for digestion,
Truth: It is very cruel that drinking yogurt after meals does not help digestion.
We often say that digestion requires regular gastrointestinal peristalsis and digestive enzymes. However, yogurt itself cannot correct the irregular gastrointestinal movement of the body, nor does it have digestive enzymes, which cannot really help digestion.
As for some yogurt and lactic acid bacteria beverages added with probiotics, the advertisement said that a bottle has [millions of active probiotics]. After being transported, stored and bought home, it is really hard to say how many can reach the intestinal tract in the end.
In addition, yogurt is a food with a strong sense of satiety, and most of the yogurt sold on the market contains sugar. If you are already full, drinking yogurt again means eating more sugar and calories, which will make you fuller and more difficult to digest.
Therefore, if you are losing weight but still want to drink a cup of yogurt, it is recommended to halve the amount of food you eat first.
