A doctor with 23 years of experience tells why it is better to choose fermented milk products, not ordinary milk
I should mention about harm to milk, as followed by natural questions - what about sour milk?
Here the answer is unequivocal: fermented milk products are very useful.
About the benefits of sour milk
It is produced through fermentation (fermentation). In the process of fermentation, complex biochemical reactions take place, the product is saturated with useful lactobacilli and becomes probiotic: valuable substrate for beneficial gastric flora.
The beneficial properties of probiotics are known: improving bowel function, reducing or completely disappearing flatulence, cramps, diarrhea or constipation, heaviness in the abdomen, etc. Read my note about the benefits of sauerkraut, in theory, all this can be attributed to fermented milk products.
Why is kefir healthier than milk
As for the harmful beta-casomorphin-7, then in the process of fermentation it collapses. In whole or in part, largely depends on the processing of the product. There are no detailed studies on this score, as they say in the scientific literature, much remains "Intriguingly unknown".
For example, it is known that in cheeses there is practically no beta-casomorphin-7.
It can be assumed that the longer the product ferments, the less this substance is in it.
Nobel laureate Ilya Mechnikov highly appreciated fermented milk products, especially yogurt and Bulgarian yogurt, and believed that they are very important for health and longevity.
So you shouldn't be afraid of kefir.
Just do not drink it at night, otherwise your appetite will break out. Why - I explained right here.
