Yogurt was popularly sold in the streets of Turkey
by thousands of street vendors during the 1940's.
contaminated food and the taking of antibiotics can cause the growth of undesirable bad bacteria in the intestine. By eating freshly-made EasiYo yogurt regularly, you can help maintain a proper healthy environment for the essential good lactic cultures to thrive and so reduce the disease and gas-producing bacteria within the intestinal tract.

Food, lifestyle, illness and the ageing process can all disrupt our internal balance. Eating freshly-made EasiYo yogurt every day can really help.
Nutrient-dense
For relatively few calories, freshly-made EasiYo yogurt is full of protein, calcium and essential vitamins and minerals to help provide the elements for growth and a good constitution.
Full of Protein and Calcium
Protein is the building material of the body and every tissue, whether muscle, skin, blood or nerve, contains it. The presence of additional milk solids in EasiYo yogurt make it a more concentrated source of protein than milk. Plus it has 30% greater absorption through the action of lactic cultures.
EasiYo’s high calcium content can help to keep bones and teeth hard and strong. Each cup (300gms) of EasiYo yogurt delivers 50% or more of the recommended daily requirement for nutritional calcium - 25% more than milk. Also EasiYo yogurt can be a good source of calcium for those with lactose intolerance.
Osteoporosis is a serious health problem, especially for women, and studies have shown that most people consume far less calcium than the daily recommended levels.
Many calcium supplements are not readily or effectively absorbed. Through the action of lactic cultures, yogurt can deliver more available calcium than milk, to help build and maintain a strong constitution.
EasiYo Aids the Synthesis of Vitamins
The lactic cultures in EasiYo yogurt have the property of being able to produce certain complex B vitamins (thiamine, riboflavin and niacin). They also produce folic acid which is essential for the nervous system development.
EasiYo is A Low Calorie Food
By substituting EasiYo yogurt for high calorie foods such as cream, mayonnaise, cream cheese or sour cream, you can help look after your weight without giving up the joys of eating.
EasiYo has approximately one tenth the calories of mayonnaise and one fifth the calories of cream. For example a bowl of EasiYo yogurt and fresh fruit is a delicious alternative to a bowl of ice cream.
EasiYo yogurt comes in regular (whole milk), reduced fat and low-fat varieties. Low-fat are unsweetened which makes them especially suited for those wishing to watch their weight or anyone who wants to sweeten their yogurt just the way they like it!
Essential Natural Fats
Fats are an integral part of a balanced diet, especially for children. The milk fats in EasiYo yogurt contribute to the body’s daily need for energy and help build and protect vital organs and membranes, such as the brain.
Although much of the yogurt sold in industrialised countries is produced from skimmed milk, traditional yogurt has always contained some 3-4% milk fat.
EasiYo Natural, EasiYo Greek and EasiYo Sweet Flavoured Yogurts are ones that provide this level of essential natural fats, making them a good source of energy and nourishment.
Enhance Digestion
The ability of EasiYo’s Yogurt cultures to pre-digest calcium, protein and other nutrients means they are better and more quickly absorbed by your body compared to milk. Also the lactose (milk sugar) is converted into lactic acid which improves digestion and hinders the growth of harmful microbes.
Lactose Intolerant
An estimated 70% of the world population lack sufficient lactase enzymes to effectively digest milk sugar. However, people with this intolerance can usually eat yogurt without any discomfort, since yogurt breaks down lactose into easily absorbed sugars.
EasiYo is an excellent food for the very young, the elderly, the ill and the convalescent – anyone who has difficulty with digesting milk properly.
Antibiotics
The prolonged use of antibiotics can sometimes have the effect of destroying lactic cultures from the digestive system, leaving it without defence against infections such as yeasts (thrush) etc. Eating plenty of EasiYo yogurt during and after a course of antibiotics can help maintain the “Good” bacteria cultures in the gut.
Scientific research into the benefits of ‘live and active’ cultures in yogurt continues… including the role they may play in the balance between good and bad cholesterol, the treatment of infant and travellers’ diarrhoea and gastro-intestinal infections, the enhancement of the immune system, and their effect on decreased activity of carcinogens. What we know is that lactic cultures are essential companions for human wellbeing.
