Eat More Yogurt?
Author: fiona08 29th, 2008

Lactobacillus acidophilus and bi?do bacterium are common benign bacteria found in the human gut. They are known as probiotic, which means they promote friendly bacterial growth, because they create acids that keep bad bacteria from multiplying. These pro-biotic bacteria, which are the same ones used to produce yogurt, are protective against illness and damage caused by in?ammation. Thus, eating yogurt with live cultures in it may be protective and another strategy to feel younger for longer. Other foods that are known for their probiotic qualities include garlic, asparagus, chicory, barley, and oatmeal.
