#15 How to Make Home-made Yogurt - The Miracle Food for Your Gut Health
Manage episode 408158927 series 3560971
Yogurt is an excellent way to replenish your gut with its probiotic cultures. However, it is best to make your own from a good yogurt starter as described in this video. Even the healthier brands of yogurt found in the health food stores are somewhat lacking in their live strains of probiotics. So if you make your own yogurt you can replenish the strains every two months with the yogurt starter powder to insure the highest quality cultures. In addition, the ancient texts of Ayurveda stated that the yogurt needs to have an alkaline taste or else if it is too acidic the acids could kill off some of the friendly bacteria cultures in the yogurt. Yogurt could be very channel-clogging and create ama (heavy undigested food which remains undigested in the gut) if not taken in the correct way.
This video describes various ways to take yogurt properly in order to prevent this clogging from occurring. Also explained is why yogurt is better than kefir, and which foods don’t combine well with yogurt. It’s important to have a thorough understanding about yogurt as it is one of the more important foods to help us retain robust health into old age, yet it has to be both prepared correctly and taken as described in the ancient texts or else this important food can just sit in the gut, rotting and fermenting if we aren’t aware of these issues.
