In recent years, lactobacillus drinks have flooded the market, and various brands of lactobacillus drinks have emerged, and lactobacillus drink advertising slogans can be seen everywhere in TV commercials to promote intestinal health, promote digestion, and enhance resistance, which have taken over the digestion-oriented yogurt industry in minutes. Who is better than lactic acid beverage and yogurt? First of all, in terms of mechanism of action, both of them work through the probiotics contained in the product to regulate the balance of intestinal flora. Lactobacillus drinks mainly contain Lactobacillus casei, while yogurt mainly contains Bifidobacterium bifidum and Lactobacillus bulgaricus, both of which belong to the genus Lactobacillus and can ferment sugar to obtain energy and produce large amounts of lactic acid. And the rest of the physiological functions are similar, however, after many experts and scholars continue to explore, experiment, has confirmed that bifidobacteria is the most beneficial flora in the intestine, the number of bifidobacteria is reduced or disappeared is a sign of “unhealthy” state, bifidobacteria is considered to be the barometer of human health. The number of bifidobacteria in the gut decreases with age, so increasing the amount of bifidobacteria in the body is also a way to maintain a healthy body. Yogurt seems to be more advantageous in terms of strains of bacteria. In supermarkets, both lactobacillus drinks and yogurt are placed in the dairy shelf, but lactobacillus drinks are not equal to milk. Although lactobacillus drinks also contain lactobacillus and milk in their composition, the content of milk is very little, and the content of protein, fat, iron and vitamins is also much lower than that of yogurt, and data show that the protein content of 100 grams of yogurt is generally around 3%, while lactobacillus drinks are only 1%. However, in addition to retaining all the nutrients of fresh milk, yogurt also produces a variety of vitamins necessary for human nutrition during the fermentation process, and is easy to absorb, especially for people with lactose indigestion. While lactic acid bacteria drinks are also divided into active lactic acid bacteria drinks and inactive lactic acid bacteria drinks, inactive lactic acid bacteria drinks generally do not have the efficacy of active lactic acid bacteria drinks. In terms of nutritional value, yogurt is superior. In terms of baby consumption adaptability, yogurt is more favorable to baby’s hydration and absorption due to smaller casein clots in milk, while yogurt also increases the acidity in baby’s stomach. Chilled lactobacillus drinks can affect appetite if eaten in excess, making children reluctant to eat regular meals. In addition to the above, the nutritional value of lactobacillus drinks is much lower than yogurt and milk, so if you feed your baby with lactobacillus drinks instead of milk or yogurt, it will easily cause malnutrition. From the above, it seems that lactic acid bacteria drinks have no advantage over yogurt, so what makes it so able to seize the domestic market so quickly? The bacteria used in the fermentation process of yogurt are usually poor in acid resistance, and it is difficult to reach the stomach when drinking, so the gastrointestinal conditioning effect is very limited. Although the protein content of lactic acid bacteria drinks is only about 1/3 of that of yogurt, the probiotic bacteria contained in them are more acid-resistant and have stronger growth activity, and have better gastrointestinal health functions. For people with frequent constipation and bloating, food in the intestine cannot be digested and discharged in time, and harmful bacteria keep multiplying in the intestine, which can cause many digestive diseases. In addition to the functions of the digestive system, the intestine is also the largest immune system in the human body. People with low immunity can also drink more lactic acid bacteria drinks to improve their health. Thus, it seems that yogurt and lactobacillus drinks have their own advantages and disadvantages. If you want to supplement nutrition, yogurt beats lactobacillus drinks, and if you want to use it for daily intestinal health, lactobacillus drinks may be more suitable for consumption.
