Yogurt- in food vs direct consumption

[Guest guest]

Hi, I'm new to all this, and had 2 questions about the yogurt:

-in the BTVC book, it is not specified that the yogurt be made with

goat's milk. Is it equally benefitial if cow's milk is used instead?

-my son is refusing the yogurt. I have been using it in recipes.

(ex. fish pg.111) Does using the yogurt in recipes give the same

effect for the child/GI system, or should I persue in trying to get

him to ingest it directly?

Thank you for all your support.

Hi ,

I make my daughter's yogurt from cow milk...... although I have made goat yogurt

as well. If your child never had any previous issues with cow dairy products,

you can use cow milk. If, when using the yogurt in a recipe, you are HEATING it,

then you are killing all the beneficial bacteria. It's fine to use it still, but

it becomes just like cheese or whatever...... no live bacteria. So, you DO need

to get the good flora down there somehow. Have you tried any smoothies? Freezing

the yogurt is not optimum for keeping the good guys alive either..... so you

might want to add frozen fruit chunks to a blender full of chilled yogurt and

give it a whir.
