There's a new yogurt in town: True Yogurt.

• It's no phony. The natural yogurt is made with 100% organic milk from a Vermont farm. Plus the peach and strawberry options contain real fruit and no artificial colors. (Vanilla is also totally pure.)

• You can trust your gut. The milk in True Yogurt is lactose free, and the yogurt is packed with five powerful probiotics along with the prebiotic inulin (a dietary fiber). Together, they work to help with digestion.

• It's full of flavor. Even the the plain has a subtle sweetness from the natural sugar in milk. And at less then 100 calories per container, it will get along well with your diet.

Intrigued? Discover true love at Whole Foods, Eli's Manhattan or Westerly Natural Market.

Thanks!

Prebiotics and Probiotics:

Prebiotics and probiotics can restore the balance of bacteria in your digestive tract. Probiotics are beneficial bacteria that can be found in various foods. When you eat probiotics, you will add these healthy bacteria to your intestinal tract. Common strains include Lactobacillis and Bifidobacterium families of bacteria.

Prebiotics are non-digestible foods that make their way through our digestive system and help good bacteria grow and flourish. Prebiotics keep beneficial bacteria healthy.

Prebiotics in the Diet:

Prebiotics that feed the beneficial bacteria in your gut mostly come from carbohydrate fibers called oligosaccharides. You don't digest them, so the oligosaccharides remain in the digestive tract and stimulate the growth of beneficial bacteria. Sources of oligosaccharides include fruits, legumes, and whole grains. Fructo-oligosaccharides may be taken as a supplement or added to foods. Yogurt made with bifidobacteria contain oligosaccharides.

Probiotics in the Diet:

Probiotic bacteria like lactobacilli are naturally found in fermented foods like sauerkraut and yogurt. Some foods will have added probiotics as healthy nutritional ingredients, which will be evident on the label.
