Frequently asked qusetions about Yogurt
Q) What exactly is YOGURT?
A) YOGURT, also spelled yoghurt, is a
smooth, semi-solid dairy product made from
milk.  People all over the world have eaten
yogurt for thousands of years but, con-
sumption in the United States did not begin
in earnest until the late 1900's.  Yogurt makers
add live active food cultures to milk to make
yogurt.  These cultures multiply at carefully control-
led temperatures and cause milk to ferment (ripen).
During the fermentation process, the cultures change
lactose (milk sugar) into lactic acid. Lactic acid
causes fluid milk to thicken resulting in yogurt.
Q) What is FROZEN YOGURT?
A) FROZEN YOGURT is simply the process of
freezing the yogurt product in a sterile, carefully con-
trolled, USDA approved machine made especially for
dispensing soft serve products.  The process it uses to
create such a smooth texture and flavor is very similar
to the one used by many at home, with the old crank
type mixers to make homemade ice cream.
Q)What are LIVE-ACTIVE FOOD CULTURES?
A) LIVE-ACTIVE FOOD CULTURES that are used in making
yogurt are natural bacteria, similar to those found in our bodies
that help keep us healthy.  They play a very important role in many
areas of good health.  With the onset of processed foods and anti-
biotics, many of these "good" bacteris or cultures are stripped away
from our bodies natural flora, leaving us depleted in many ways.
With the re-introduction of these live, active cultures in yogurt we are
able to replenish our systems again with many of the needed
bacteria to help make us healthy again.

>L. (lactobacillus) Acidopohilus... for its ability to aid in digestion;  defense against
yeast infections and lower the levels of cholesterol in the blood.
>L. (lactobacillus) Bulgaricus…also for its ability to aid in digestion including
acid reflux, help in the taming of run away appetites, and
is extremely proteolytic (i.e., able to split proteins for easy digestion and
and absorption), enhansing digestibility of milk products and other proteins,
produces natural antibiotic substances, and effective immune enhan-
cements.
S. (streptococcus) Thermophilus…for its ability to provide antioxidant activity
that destroy harmful radicals in the body caused by stress, antibiotics,
aging, and the consumption of sugar, chlorinated water and other chemicals
and toxinspresented in the Standard American diet (SAD).
