Composition and beneficial properties of fermented baked milk

The properties of fermented milk product are explained by the rich composition of nutrients. Among the vitamins, group B predominates - choline, riboflavin, niacin and ascorbic acid, and among minerals - calcium, potassium, sodium, chlorine, phosphorus, iron and fluorine, copper and tin.

The most beneficial for facial skin are saturated, monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fatty acids. These substances:

participate in the formation of cell membranes;
normalize metabolic processes;
stimulate the construction of epithelial tissue cell membranes;
increase the production of collagen and elastin, hyaluronic acid and glycosaminoglycans;
prevent the narrowing of small peripheral capillary blood vessels, increasing the supply of oxygen to the tissues;
stop inflammatory processes.

calcium: in 200 ml of fermented baked milk - 1/4 of a person’s daily need for this element;
phosphorus: in the same 200 ml of drink - 20% of the daily intake;
the protein contained in fermented baked milk is absorbed by the stomach much faster and easier than milk protein;
lactic acids improve appetite;
organic acids are needed for general cell rejuvenation;

4–6% fermented baked milk perfectly relieves fatigue and tension: its calorie content makes it a real natural and completely harmless energy drink. Ryazhenka is a fairly high-calorie product, and this indicator depends on its fat content:

1% contains 40 kcal (per 100 ml);
2.5% is 54 kcal;
in a 4% product 67 kcal;
Ryazhenka at 6% will give the body 85 kcal.
