Fruits and yogurt

A lot of you might love the combination of yogurt and freshly chopped fruits every morning. But it is really considered as an unhealthy combination. The bacteria in yogurt acts on the natural sugar that's present in the fruits which leads to toxins, allergies and cold. The acid that the fruits contain can become problematic to your digestion when it mixes with the protein of yogurt. This can at times give you allergies.
