How is fermented greek yogurt produced?
A multiple-step process called fermentation, which takes place in the laboratory, produces a wide range of fermented foods such as sour cream, yogurt and kefir. Fermentation is the process of converting carbohydrates to alcohol or carbon dioxide gas. The process takes place in a microclimate under anaerobic conditions. This prevents bacteria from growing, and it also allows the enzymes in the food, which chemically change the food but do not interfere with its nutritional value, to act more slowly and evenly.
The process involves three steps: lactose fermentation, osmotic dehydration and microorganisms fermentation. In the first step, lactose is converted to lactic acid. In the second step, moisture is removed from the food by osmotic dehydration. The final step involves the growth of microorganisms such as bacteria and yeast.
These microorganisms break down proteins, carbohydrates and other compounds into smaller components that can be used as food for human beings. The process of fermenting foods results in several different by-products such as flavours, colourings or aromas. During this process, live strains of bacteria break down lactose into lactic acid and carbon dioxide. The lactic acid acts as a preservative and survives cold temperatures.
Benefits of fermented yogurt:
- It is higher in calcium than dairy products that are not fermented.
Fermented Greek yogurt is a probiotic food that contains active Lactobacillus casei cultures that have been clinically shown to provide numerous digestive and immune system support. It has incredible benefits for your gut and immune system, including the prevention of diarrhea. This fermented greek yogurt protein is a vegetarian-friendly food, offering protein and several other benefits such as potassium and vitamins A, B12 and B6. Fermented yogurt also helps to improve the body’s ability to absorb fat-soluble nutrients like riboflavin (B2), calcium and folate.
- Is a good source of vitamin B12, riboflavin, folate, thiamin and pantothenic acid (B6).
Riboflavin is an antioxidant known to protect cells from cellular damage. Added calcium and potassium help maintain the normal function of the muscles and nerves.
Yogurt is an excellent source of calcium and has nearly twice the amount of protein and riboflavin, an antioxidant known to protect cells from damage. It is high in other B vitamins, and it is a good source of vitamins B6 and B12, ferritin (an essential nutrient for iron absorption), potassium and phosphorus.
- Yogurt contributes to normal carbohydrate metabolism and the maintenance of normal bones and teeth.
It is an excellent source of potassium and phosphorus, which helps regulate the fluid balance in muscle and other tissues.
