Yogurt is a creamy, tangy dairy product made by fermenting milk with beneficial bacteria. Originating over 4,000 years ago in Central Asia, it has become a staple in cuisines worldwide, from Mediterranean tzatziki to Indian raita. Packed with protein, calcium, and probiotics, yogurt supports gut health, boosts immunity, and aids digestion. While full-fat versions can be rich in saturated fat, low-fat and plant-based alternatives offer lighter options. Whether enjoyed on its own, blended into smoothies, or drizzled over salads, yogurt is a delicious and versatile addition to a healthy diet.
