An Internet-famous yogurt with the selling points of "freshly made" and "high live bacteria" has recently become popular on social platforms.Because many consumers have reported that it has a significant "smoothing" effect after experiencing it, this yogurt has been nicknamed a "new laxative" by netizens, and even has the humorous nickname of "thinned yogurt".
Regarding the experience of this yogurt, the reactions of netizens can be described as polarized. Someone gave full play to their sense of humor and filmed a joke showing a large stack of paper towels given when purchasing yogurt, joking about "the fear of not having enough paper", implying its powerful laxative effect.
However, many netizens who have drank it said that the actual effect was mediocre and that the marketing promotion was too exaggerated. But another group of consumers confirmed its "power" and claimed that the experience was extremely "smooth", such as "running to the toilet 4 times in 4 hours" and even "being unable to get up while sitting on the toilet".
What's even more worrying is thatSome consumers posted their medical records on the review software, saying that after drinking it, they developed symptoms of vomiting, diarrhea, dizziness, persistent diarrhea and vomiting, and were eventually diagnosed as acute gastroenteritis by the hospital.
It is understood that this hotly discussed yogurt sells for as much as 49 yuan a cup. Its ingredient list shows that it contains an astonishing 10 billion active probiotics and rich dietary fiber. Regarding consumers' completely different reactions, the store clerk responded that "everyone's reaction is different," seemingly implying that individual differences are the main reason.
However, medical experts have expressed clear concerns. Doctors pointed out that the probiotic content claimed by the yogurt is 5 to 10 times higher than the recommended daily intake.Ingesting such a high dose of probiotics at one time can easily lead to intestinal flora disorder and cause uncomfortable symptoms such as flatulence and diarrhea.
At the same time, although its high content of dietary fiber is beneficial, excessive intake will accelerate intestinal peristalsis and increase stool volume, which may also cause diarrhea. In addition, the low-temperature characteristics of yogurt itself will also cause physical stimulation to the intestines, further promoting defecation.
The doctor emphasized that diarrhea is by no means the so-called "detoxification", nor can it be equated with fat loss.On the contrary, frequent diarrhea is extremely harmful: it will damage the intestinal mucosal villi and affect nutrient absorption; cause electrolyte imbalance (for example, hypokalemia may cause arrhythmia); and destroy the balance of intestinal flora, increasing the risk of future diseases such as intestinal polyps. People with low immunity and people with weak gastrointestinal function, such as children, the elderly, and pregnant women, are especially not suitable for drinking such products.
Doctors remind consumers: Do not believe in the misconception that "diarrhea is detoxification"! If you experience any physical discomfort after drinking such products, be sure to seek medical attention promptly to avoid delaying your condition.
