24 Hour Yoghurt

24 hour yoghurt has been fermented for 24 hours and during this time most of the lactose and casein have been comsumed by the bacteria. This makes the yoghurt much easier to digest and can help to restore the beneficial bacteria in the gut. Including as many varieties of fermented food is vital for gut health. 24 hour yoghurt is perfect for individuals who suffer from diarrhoea as the high protein content can assist in firming up the stools
