Yogurt

The ultimate health food, yogurt, may prevent allergic attacks, say researchers at the University of California, Davis. They found people who ate two 8 ounce cartons of yogurt with live cultures (specifically lactobacillus bulgaricus and streptocus thermophilous) per day came down with fewer colds and almost 10 times fewer allergy symptoms than those eating the same amount of yogurt with killed cultures. Other research found that women with recurrent yeast infections had almost seven times fewer infections when they ate yogurt containing live cultures. (in this case, lactobacillus acidophilus). Of course, yogurt is also a substitute source of bone building calcium.
