Probiotics for Health

European Yogurt Maker

This $40 item is on my 'wish list' at Amazon.com and will be ordered next week. A yogurt culture is now on its way. Another method is to add store-bought yogurt (containing live culture) to heated whole milk. The mixed product is maintained at a low temperature for several hours. Said to be mighty delicious.

Shirley likes fruit mixed in, so any kind of fruit preserves should work perfectly well. I suspect that once I start Shirley on this she will not want to go back to yogurt off the grocery store shelf. Imagine adding strawberry preserves and some ripe banana slices to this home-made treat.

BTW, Shirley continues to drink around 95 ounces of water from our AquaLiv system daily. Initially she noticed that never did she get fluid-overload from extra water consumption and she lost 7 pounds (water weight I am sure). As well, recently she stopped her evening Lasix dose, taking only the morning medication without untoward results.

As for me, I continue consuming six pints daily and have had to reduce my evening Lantus insulin dose. And I feel better overall since starting hydration with better water.
