Here are some trivia about yogurt that I recently learned about.
- Yogurt can be used as a face mask. Its soothing astringent qualities are a help to oily skin. Yogurt can even out your skin tone, lessen freckles, tighten pores and cleanse skin. Apply plain yogurt on your face, throat and chest. Leave it on for
twenty minutes then rinse with warm water. You can also repeat this
every day for a fresher and beautiful skin.
- Yogurt has many names like in Armenia, it is matzoon, in Egypt leben raib, Russians, who eat it
with black bread, call it varenetz, and in Yugoslavia, where there are
hundreds of centenarians, and where it is sold on street stands as ice
cream is sold in other countries, it is known as kisselo mleko.
- It takes about 1 pound of whole milk to make 1 pound of yogurt.
- Yogurt eases sunburn pain. Just spread yogurt on the painful area and leave it on for twenty minutes and then rinse with lukewarm water.
- Yogurt can be used in the production of toothpaste, mouthwash, facial masks, and suntan products.
- Yogurt soothes canker sore
Who knew yogurt can be used other than eating. :)
