Organic Caspian Sea Yoghurt Starter (Matsoni): A Timeless Tradition for Gut Health
Discover the exquisite taste and health benefits of Organic Caspian Sea Yoghurt, also known as Matsoni. This unique yoghurt, originating from the Caucasus and Caspian Sea regions, has been revered for centuries for its distinct flavour and powerful health properties.
What is Matsoni?
Matsoni, often called the “yoghurt of longevity,” is a mesophilic yoghurt known for its gentle fermentation process at moderate temperatures (20–25°C). Unlike thermophilic yoghurts that ferment at higher temperatures, Matsoni retains a smoother texture and a subtle, tangy taste, preserving essential probiotics crucial for gut health.
Historical Legacy
Matsoni has deep roots in the diets of Caucasus inhabitants renowned for their longevity and vitality. Traditionally fermented in clay pots, this creamy yoghurt was cherished for its nourishing qualities and delicious flavour. Its enduring popularity reflects its health benefits and cultural significance.
Health Benefits
Organic Caspian Sea Yoghurt is packed with probiotics, vital for maintaining a balanced gut microbiome. Scientific research underscores the benefits:
- Improved Digestion: Probiotics in Matsoni aid lactose digestion, making it easier on the stomach for those with lactose intolerance. They also promote regular bowel movements and alleviate bloating and constipation symptoms.(Reference: Effect of fermented milk containing Lactobacillus casei strain Shirota on constipation among women in Singapore, Journal of Digestive Diseases, 2020)
- Enhanced Immunity: A robust gut microbiome supports a strong immune system, helping to defend against infections and harmful pathogens.(Reference: Probiotics and immune health, Current Opinion in Gastroenterology, 2021)
- Nutrient Absorption: The fermentation process enhances nutrient bioavailability, ensuring your body absorbs more essential vitamins and minerals from your diet.(Reference: The impact of probiotics and prebiotics on mineral metabolism, Current Nutrition Reports, 2017)
