Goat Yogurt for Better Health

Naturally rich in A2 protein, goat milk yogurt is an alternative to cow’s milk yogurt for lactose-intolerant people or those seeking a dairy-based yogurt with better digestibility due to the smaller fat molecules and different milk proteins in goat milk. Laura Chenel Probiotic Goat Milk Yogurt has the added benefit of:

• 
  1 billion probiotics per serving from BB12®, which studies have shown support the body’s immune and digestive systems and promote gastrointestinal health;
• no preservatives, artificial colors or flavorings;
• seasonal fluctuation in texture and consistency is normal and prove it’s made from the extremely fresh milk of pastured goats. In summer, the yogurt is lighter and thinner while in winter, its texture is thicker and richer.
