HEALTH BENEFIT OF YUGO “YOGHURT BASE MILK DRINK”
INTRODUCTION: YUGO milk drink is a yoghurt base drink, which undergo fermentation process before further processing, the major raw material for production of YUGO are milk, water, sugar and starter culture. Fermentation process involve is lactic acid fermentation. Lactic acid fermentation is used in many areas of the world to produce foods that cannot be produced through other methods.

The most commercially important genus of lactic acid-fermenting bacteria is Lactobacillus. Two of the most common applications of lactic acid fermentation are in the production of yogurt and sauerkraut.

The main method of producing “YUGO” yoghurt base milk drink is through the lactic acid fermentation of milk with harmless bacteria. The primary bacteria used are typically Lactobacillus bulgaricus and Streptococcus thermophilus, and NAFDAC law requires all yogurts drink to contain these two cultures (though others may be added as probiotic cultures). 

These bacteria produce lactic acid in the milk culture, decreasing its pH and causing it to congeal. The bacteria also produce compounds that give YUGO its distinctive flavor. An additional effect of the lowered pH is the incompatibility of the acidic environment with many other types of harmful bacteria. YUGO milk drink is a probiotic product (Probiotics are live bacteria in yogurt,) which has great advantages on health. The term "probiotic" originally referred to microorganisms that have effects on other microorganisms, a usage credited to Lilly and Stilwell (1965). Their conception of probiotics involved the notion that substances secreted by one microorganism stimulated the growth of another microorganism. The term was used again in 1971 by Sperti to describe tissue extracts which stimulated microbial growth.

The term probiotics was taken up by Parker in 1974 who defined the concept as, “organisms and substances that have a beneficial effect on the host animal by contributing to its intestinal microbial balance”. Later, the definition was greatly improved by Fuller in 1989, whose explanation was very close to the definition used today. Fuller in 1989 described probiotics as a "live microbial feed supplement which beneficially affects the host animal by improving its intestinal microbial balance". He stressed two important facts of probiotics: the viable nature of probiotics and the capacity to help with intestinal balance. [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Probiotic]
