As a healthy food, yogurt is rich in nutrition and delicious, and is deeply loved by people. Many people think that drinking a cup of yogurt after a meal can relieve greasiness and help digestion, especially many friends who are in the period of weight loss do not forget to have a cup of yogurt after a meal. So, in a full stomach, can drinking yogurt really help digestion?

People often say "drinking yogurt after meals to help digestion" means that drinking yogurt can promote the secretion of gastric acid, and the probiotics contained in it can inhibit the reproduction of harmful bacteria in the intestinal tract, which has a certain effect on maintaining the health of the digestive system. It can indirectly help the digestion of food. However, in the case of full stomach, drinking yogurt will increase the feeling of fullness instead, and it will not help digestion, and it may lead to obesity in the long run.

First of all, from the perspective of the human digestive system itself, digestion refers to the process in which macromolecular substances such as carbohydrates, proteins, and fats ingested by the human body are transformed into small molecular substances that can dissolve in water under the action of digestive enzymes. , Digestion requires regular gastrointestinal motility and digestive enzymes. When the human body consumes sufficient dietary fiber and vitamin B1, it can effectively promote gastrointestinal motility, thereby promoting food digestion.

However, yogurt itself does not contain dietary fiber, and the content of vitamin B1 is not rich. Drinking yogurt cannot correct irregular or low-frequency gastrointestinal motility, and yogurt does not contain digestive enzymes, so it cannot promote gastrointestinal motility. Digestive enzymes to aid digestion.

Secondly, judging from the calories of yogurt itself, yogurt is a food with a strong sense of satiety, and it also contains a certain amount of sugar. Drinking yogurt after a meal will increase the body’s extra energy and increase the appetite. Moreover, drinking yogurt after meals for a long time will also increase the risk of obesity.

In addition, although the probiotics in yogurt can maintain the health of the intestinal digestive system, most of the colonies contained in yogurt are not acid-resistant. When these colonies enter the intestinal tract through the stomach, the strong acid environment in the stomach will cause most of them to lose active. Therefore, drinking yogurt after meals does not directly promote digestion.
