Fermented milk is a dairy product created through the controlled fermentation of milk using beneficial bacteria, such as Lactobacillus or Bifidobacterium. Originating from various cultures around the world, including Eastern Europe, the Middle East, and Asia, forms like kefir, yogurt, and buttermilk showcase its versatility in cuisine. Rich in probiotics, fermented milk supports gut health by promoting healthy digestion and bolstering immunity. It also provides essential nutrients like calcium, protein, vitamin B12, and phosphorus, which contribute to bone strength, muscle development, and overall vitality. While generally considered beneficial, some varieties can include added sugars or high fat content, which should be consumed in moderation. Fermented milk is a staple in diets aiming for balanced nutrition and is often enjoyed as a beverage, snack, or cooking ingredient.
