What is healthy fast food?

Within our product range, healthy fast food means the products that are:

There is nothing stronger than a habit, yet we recommend something new when you find yourself in the situation when you are looking for a snack. You may try drinking yoghurt JO, FIJI or SMILGELĖ drink, a pack of yoghurt or curd dessert, coated cheesecake or a piece of fermented cheese!

The Rule of Three is an advise of nutritionists. People willing to lead healthy lifestyle should get some vitamins, mineral acids and other useful substances contained in milk on daily basis. It’s quite easy, you only have to consume a small quantity of a milk product three times a day, for example: a small amount of yogurt for breakfast, a piece of fermented cheese or curd for lunch, and a glass of warm milk in the evening...

Can someone, who does not drink milk, eat yogurt?

In most cases, yes. About one third of people in the world cannot drink sweet milk, since their bodies do not tolerate milk sugar – lactose. Yet, such people can consume the so-called sour milk products (made of fermented milk): yogurt, clabber, sour curd and sour curd cheese, sour cream. Milk with reduced content of lactose is made for such people. We suggest trying MŪ.

Is it possible to get excess weight when consuming milk products? In the end, some of them have rather high fat content?

Well, yes, if you eat pure butter spoon after spoon.

You should be temperate in eating, whatever it is – milk products or any other product. Moreover, you should learn to combine products, and then the food you eat will supply your body with healthy and necessary agents instead of polluting it. In fact, human body digests fat contained in milk products faster and easier than that contained in meat or fried food!

Will I be healthy if I drink milk every day?

Health consists of many factors, yet it is true that daily consumption of milk products makes you healthier!

Which milk is better for my health – natural grandma’s “cottage” milk or the one available in the shop?

The so-called cottage milk comes in different quality. We do not recommend buying it from strangers, since you don’t know where their cows pasture, are they healthy or not, under what hygiene conditions they are milked and how the milk is made ready for sale... Drinking milk processed in the industrial way does not taste worse, is not less good for health or beneficial, and you can trust its quality – professionals take care of that; milk is checked in laboratories several times, processed thermally, and provided in a hygienic package.

Milk products help burn fat

We often get letters with questions, what products should one choose – fat-free, low-fat or fatter, the so-called ‘natural’...

Each of us shall make one’s own choice. At the time being, there are 2 cardinally different opinions. Supporters of one side radically calculate even those several grams of fat contained in yoghurt, meanwhile others claim that this is a worthless effort and try to eat the fattest possible milk products. We reprint an article defending the latter theory.
