I'm trying to introduce more yoghurt into my diet but what are the health benefits and which type is the best to choose?

The lactobacillus in yoghurt feeds the intestines, maximizes nutrients you can absorb into your body, insures the digestive system stays healthy, and stabilizes the immune system.
"Yoghurt has strong medicinal properties, including the ability to stimulate the immune system and kill bad "bugs" or bacteria in the human gut. ...research at the University of California at Davis showed that eating live-culture yoghurt was associated with higher-than-average levels of gamma interferon, a key component of the body's immune system."

Hi yoghurts are very good for you, the ones that are the best are fat tree natural yoghurts and bio youghurts as these contain live cultures that help keep you stoumach healthy, Any yoghurt that also has probiotics in are really good for you, Activea are good for bloating as they contain bifidus digestivum, Also if you arnt keen on eating yoghurts theres them yoghurt drinks than you drink 1 day there the same a yoghurts but you drink them.
