Bulgarian Yogurt/ Kiselo Mlyako

Bulgarian Yogurt/ Kiselo Mlyako is unique, worldwide famous fermented milk product. Since the antiquity it has been considered a food that sustains the human health , beauty and life longevity.

The ancient Thracians observed that the fermented milk exhibits better endurance compare to the fresh one. By adding fermented milk to boiled fresh milk they obtained a product known as “prokish” or “kvaseno mliako”. The regular and continuous preparation of “kvaseno mliako” resulted in the natural selection of the two lactic acid bacteria of Bulgarian Yogurt/ Kiselo Mlyako – Lactobacillus Bulgaricus.

In the early 1900s, while working at: the University of Geneva, the young Bulgarian scientist Dr Stamen Grigorov found the agent causing Bulgarian yogurt fermentation- known as Lactobacillus Bulgaricus.
It is considered that the Bulgarian Yogurt/ Kiselo Mlyako strengthens the immune system and helps prevent tumor growth, producing cancer-suppressing compounds. The Bulgarian Yogurt/ Kiselo Mlyako has been credited with having a number of healthy effects on the human body, including: reducing cholesterol, reducing unhealthy bacteria in the gastro-intestinal tract, increasing calcium levels thus helping against osteoporosis.
