Yogurt & Health

Bone health

Consuming fermented milk products such as yogurt is linked with healthy growth of bones when we’re young, reduced bone loss when we’re older, and a lower risk of broken bones in our old age. These benefits seen at all stages of life are achieved through several mechanisms. Not only do yogurts deliver nutrients vital for strong healthy bones, but they also contain prebiotics and probiotics, which may benefit the bones by modifying the microbiota that inhabit our gut.
