Many Benefits of Yogurt


Studies have shown that yogurt really helps with fat loss, when combined with a calorie reduced diet. Studies at the University of Tennessee have shown that three servings of yogurt a day can help you to lose 22% more weight, 60% more body fat, than a restricted calorie diet. In addition, 80% more abdominal fat was lost in the group with yogurt.

You can add yogurt to your morning cereal; pour it over a bowl of fresh fruit; throw it in the blender, add whatever you want, and make a smoothie; or simply spoon it from its store container and eat it like pudding.

What you may not know is that eating three 6 ounce (the standard single size container) servings of yogurt per day will provide you with about 1100 milligrams of dietary calcium. It will also give you high quality protein without loading up the calorie count. French women have long known that adding one or two servings of yogurt each day to their diets helps them keep their famously slim French profiles.

Other uses for yogurt: facial mask, good in calming acne prone skin, add 1 tsp honey to yogurt, mix, put on face for 15 minutes then rinse.

Yogurt is also a good marinate for chicken. It softens the chicken to make it soft and juicy. After marinating in yogurt, dip in flour coating (flour + salt +pepper+ paprika) then fry.
