Why can live yoghurt be used as probiotics for animals?
Live yoghurt can be used to provide some live microorganisms to the animal’s digestive tract. However, it has some distinct disadvantages when compared to ProBiotic LIVE: + the concentration of live micro-organisms present in the yoghurt is unknown but will tend to be relatively low and will depend on the freshness of the yoghurt and the conditions in which it has been stored. After opening, the microbial concentration can become depleted. + the actual strains of microorganisms contained within live yoghurts will tend to be chosen for taste and texture properties rather than a probiotic benefit. Hence the microorganisms contained within the yoghurt may not produce any probiotic benefit.
