Is consuming yogurt the best way to get your robotics?

Well, the answer is no, it's not.

Unfortunately, the bacteria in yogurt gets killed at the stomach level.

Not to mention there's limited strains of microbes in yogurt.

I mean, sometimes there's two, sometimes there's

three. If you're lucky, you might have five or six. And the way that they rate these microbes

is by a unit called C-FU. And that stands for colony forming units. And so yogurt usually has about, I know, 3.6 CFUs. But here's the problem.

Most yogurt out there is pasteurized. And these microbes do not survive heat. So basically,

you're consuming dead bacteria. Not to mention the extra lactose, which so many people

have lactose intolerance, so they have digestive issues from that. Not to mention casein allergies.

It's the protein and milk. Many people are sensitive to that as well. And we won't even talk about

the added amount of sugar that they put in yogurt. Now, I am speaking

generally. There are certain yogurts out there that are way better than others, like the Bulgarian

yogurt, right? That's an awesome product. But the conventional yogurts are not going to give you

the probiotics that you really need. Now, what about kefir? Okay, well, kefir is very different than yogurt. The way they make

kefir is with a keifer grain, which are different strains of microorganisms, which includes friendly

yeast. But the word kefir is a Turkish word that means feel good after a meal. And this is probably why people like consuming

probiotics because it just makes their stomach feel better. And what goes on with your digestive

system has a huge influence on what's going on up here. You're going to feel better in your

head if things are better in your stomach. Now, Kiefer, compared to yogurt, has like nine times the CFUs.
