Lactic acid bacteria drinks and yogurt are both for drinking, which sounds like "milk" and "acid", so many parents use lactic acid bacteria drinks as yogurt for their children. In fact, lactic acid bacteria beverage and yogurt are completely different things. Although lactic acid bacteria beverage tastes good, its nutritional value is not as good as yogurt.
Nutritionists say that lactic acid bacteria drinks cannot be equated with yogurt, especially for children. If yogurt is replaced by lactic acid drinks for a long time, there will be health problems such as obesity and dental caries.
Extended data:
Yogurt drink is not yogurt.
A beverage labeled "active lactic acid bacteria". This drink contains active lactic acid bacteria, and the activity of lactic acid bacteria in a good quality active lactic acid bacteria drink will be stronger, and the number will reach a certain order of magnitude (10 8-1010), so some beneficial bacteria will enter the intestine and play a role in regulating intestinal flora.
Blended milk beverage. For example, in protein, the content of original yogurt is about 2.5g/ 100ml, while the content of protein in lactic acid bacteria beverage is only about 0.7%. The blended milk beverage is made of water, sugar and a small amount of milk without living bacteria, and its nutritional value is low, and there is no intestinal function of active bacteria. Similarly, because of the good taste and more sugar, it is easy to drink too much and increase the risk of obesity.
Yogurt is the fermented product of milk, and its calcium content, protein content and vitamin content are much higher than those of lactic acid bacteria drinks. For example, the content of protein in yogurt is about 2.5%, while the content of protein in lactic acid bacteria beverage is only 0.7%.
Therefore, yogurt has two advantages, one is the nutritional value comparable to milk, and the other is live lactic acid bacteria, but unlike pure active lactic acid bacteria drinks, yogurt can regulate intestinal function only if it is ingested for a long time.
