Yogurt For Your Health

Yogurt is fermented milk. It has animal protein and several other nutrients found in dairy foods, like calcium, vitamin B-2, potassium, magnesium. It is “probiotics”. Probiotics are human friendly bacteria, which are naturally present in the digestive system. It is not only good for your stomach rather for complete body. So it is clear after my speech that how much a recipe is healthy, if it is made using yoghurt. Below I have shared 5 recipes which you must try.
