probiotic yogurt

Beneficial bacteria snack

Probiotic yogurt is yogurt containing live bacterial cultures believed to benefit digestive health.

All yogurt starts with bacterial fermentation, but probiotic varieties add specific strains—like Lactobacillus or Bifidobacterium—that survive digestion and reach the gut: She eats probiotic yogurt every morning for gut health.

Marketing often emphasizes these added cultures, though scientific claims vary in strength.
