Natural yogurt 2% contains lactose which is broken down by fermenting bacteria, increasing its digestibility. Due to fermentation, even those with lactose intolerance can benefit from its advantages. Yogurt can be made from various types of milk, such as cow, sheep, or goat milk. During the fermentation process, some components of milk undergo transformation, for instance, lactose is partially broken down into glucose and galactose, and proteins become more easily digestible. Natural yogurt also contains larger amounts of bioavailable calcium, iron, and phosphorus, which supports the building of a strong bone structure. Compared to milk, natural yogurt contains more vitamin B12 and folic acid, as well as the enzyme beta-galactosidase, which supports the digestion process of lactose in the small intestine.
