Have you noticed lately, how yogurt is being marketed to young women to aid digestion? Yogurt provides live enzymes that help to digest food and provide healthy flora in your digestive tract. Even Silk Yogurt, a vegan brand, has jumped on the bandwagon, touting live cultures to aid digestion.
You know what else has live enzymes? Nearly every raw food and vegetable. Sprouts, nuts and raw fruit and vegetables can provide that same ease to your digestion that over-processed dairy and soy-based foods can. Squeezing lemon in your water every morning or putting a teaspoon of apple cider vinegar in water, with a little agave syrup can perform the same function. Eating chewable papaya enzynme tablets is a yummy, (note the word usage) cheap way to add enzymes to your diet.
This over-saturation of the dairy section in your grocery store, with brands like Activa and Nutriva, whatever, are merely ploys to get people to eat MORE dairy. Wake up people! Instead of having a salad with fresh veggies, indulge in an over-processed, sugary snack that will help you to digest even more dairy. Go figure. Are people too lazy to eat fresh foods, opting for conveneince? Well, in America yes. If it's on TV it must be good for you.
