摘要
Fermented milk and other dairy foods are consumed globally since ages. Dairy foods are nutrient-rich foods and sources of microorganisms with probiotic properties. A variety of probiotics and starter cultures are used to generate different milk-based foods. Dairy foods have gathered optimism in view of their nutritive value, potential for gastrointestinal health, and prevention of hypertension and infectious and noninfectious diseases such as esophageal, colorectal, and urinary bladder cancer.
