Coconut Milk Yogurt

So over the weekend I tried making the coconut milk yogurt that I had posted about. It was a total fail! I woke up in the morning to soup. So tonight I am trying again! This time it's a different recipe and is already working much better. Here's the blog that I found it on: Kathy's Recipe Box. To make it, it cost me about $2.50 and I will have about 28oz of yogurt. This will save me about $5.00. It ends up being about equal to getting regular yogurt on sale or $0.53 for a 6oz serving. We'll see tomorrow how it worked.

I have been asked why feeding Bailey yogurt is so important to me. Here are so reasons why foods with probiotics are good for your health:

• Good bacteria make vitamins our bodies need and utilize such as B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, B12, A and K.
• Good bacteria produce essential fatty acids
• Good bacteria digest lactose
• Good bacteria regulates peristalsis and bowel movements
• Good bacteria digests protein into amino acids
• Good bacteria produce antibiotics and antifungals which prevent colonization and growth of bad bacteria and yeast/fungus
• Good bacteria support the immune system and increase the number of immune cells.
• Good bacteria balance intestinal pH.
• Good bacteria break down bacterial toxins
• Good bacteria have anti-tumor and anti-cancer effects.
• Good bacteria protects us against environmental toxins like mercury, pesticides, pollution and radiation
• Good bacteria break down and rebuild hormones
• Good bacteria help normalize serum cholesterol and triglycerides

Anything that can do this for our bodies is worth eating. Since she can't have regular yogurt, I feel that I need to provide her with something that can help her just the same.
