Things to look out for when making yogurt

A friend showed me how to make yogurt. Home-made yogurt! It sounds like a great idea!

It is so important to have good bacteria in our gut. They are like soldiers, they will chase out the bad guys and defend the territory. We are always exposed to the bad bacteria from the environment,from our food, hence we need to constantly boost up our good bacteria guys in our gut.


I succeeded after a few failed attempts and it gave me a great deal of satisfaction to see them taking shape so nicely.  Most importantly, they taste great! I took them in the morning with spirulina, maca powder, dates syrup and a dash of oil.

After finishing 3 tubs of it yogurt in the morning (and I don't take them everyday!), i began to feel strange in my stomach.  On further check with my Indian friends, they said they take yogurt as their dishes are usually very spicy (hence heaty) and hence they need something (like yogurt) to balance (cool) them down.  And they always take it after a meal, not on an empty stomach.

Food is our medicine.  We have to be careful, when adopting some of the diet from other culture, especially if you have health conditions.

有一位朋友教我做酸奶。 我开心极了!

我们的肠道应有多一些好菌,那是如此的重要。他们就像我们的士兵,能帮我们把坏人赶出去,捍卫领土。我们一直在跟有害细菌接触。因此,我们需要不断增强好菌在我们的肠道。

失败几次后,我终于成功了!看见们渐渐的成形,让我有很大的满足感最重要的是,它们的味道太棒了!我加了螺旋藻,玛卡,红枣糖浆和少许油,都是好东西!

可是, 我吃了三瓶自己做的酸奶以后,(我不是每天吃!)我开始觉得肚子怪怪的我的印度朋友询问之下,他们说他们的饮食是非常辣(属热性,因此,他们需要一些比较凉性的东西来平衡(如酸奶。因此他们总是饭后才用,而不会空腹使用

 所以食物就我们的药我们必须要小心,如果你身体已有状况,不可轻易采用其他文化的饮
