The Indian yogurt, also known as Kefir or Mewedoke, is a fermented milk drink that originates from the Caucasus region. It is made from the milk of cows, goats, or sheep, and is sometimes made from plant-based sources like soy or coconut milk. It is a combination of yeast and bacteria that form together with the milk protein to produce yogurt. It should be added to cold or room temperature milk, never hot milk, to preserve the good bacteria. It is usually stored in glass containers.

Are Mushrooms Good For Weight Loss
The Indian flatbread known as "kulcha" is not specifically helpful for weight loss alone. There is no single food that can assist in weight loss, however incorporating certain foods as part of a healthy dietary system along with increased physical activity can be beneficial. Kulcha is a rich source of protein which provides many health benefits including aiding in weight control. A study conducted on a group of obese rats and published in the journal Bioscience, Biotechnology, and Biochemistry in 2017 found that consumption of kulcha helped to reduce weight, lower cholesterol and triglyceride levels in the blood. Thus, kulcha consumption may help reduce the risk of obesity. However, more human studies are needed to determine its effect on weight loss. When using kulcha for weight loss, it is important to consider calorie and nutritional intake, as one cup of kulcha made with skim milk can contain more than 100 calories, while the calorie content in homemade kulcha can vary depending on the ingredients used.
