According to the nutritionist, yogurt is the most useful of the products presented. Nutritionist Mikhail Ginzburg compared yogurt, ryazhenka, and kefir, named their beneficial properties, and talked about the health hazards.
According to the doctor, all fermented milk products have a symbiotic microflora, which is unique in that it does not allow bacteria to multiply, which has a toxic and inflammatory effect.
Their daily consumption is very important, especially for those who have been ill with coronavirus, as such products help restore the microflora.
“Beneficial bacteria also protect against coronavirus, as they stimulate antiviral immunity. Studies show that fermented dairy products and symbiotic bacteria block the enzyme by which viruses enter the cell and make it difficult for the infection to spread,” Ginzburg said.
However, fermented milk products have a number of defects that should not be forgotten:
- In particular, kefir can have a negative impact on the gastric mucosa if it is too acidic.
- Fatty milk is used in the preparation of ryazhenka, and therefore this product should be avoided when losing weight.
- When choosing yogurt, pay attention to its composition, as sugar-containing fermented milk products are harmful to health.
According to the nutritionist, yogurt is the most useful of the products presented, followed by kefir and ryazhenka.
