Description

Khalid Alsaleem and Mahmoud Hamouda stir defatted rice bran into probiotic low fat yogurt and measure what improves and what suffers, in this 2024 study. The bran, a milling byproduct, carries fiber, protein building blocks, vitamins, and protective compounds. Four doses, from half a percent to two percent, were tested over twenty-one days of cold storage.

Probiotic counts rose with the bran, holding up better through storage, especially at one and one and a half percent. Nutrition improved across the board, and the yogurt grew firmer and thicker while weeping less liquid. Color paid a price: higher doses darkened the yogurt and lowered taste scores, with two percent clearly too much. The authors settle on up to one and a half percent as the sweet spot for a functional yogurt people will still enjoy.
