Yogurt

If you're a fan of creamy yogurt, keep on keeping on! Yogurt is a fermented milk product rich in probiotics, live microorganisms that promote the balance of intestinal flora, which play an essential role in the immune system. They do this by inhibiting the growth of harmful gut bacteria and potentially reducing inflammation. Other foods rich in probiotics include kefir, miso, sauerkraut, pickles, tempeh, kombucha and buttermilk.
