VIVO’s unique formula lets you make real vegan yogurt using plant‑based milk. Our starter culture includes 12 probiotic strains to support digestion, immune health, and overall wellness.*\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe recommend using soy milk, since it typically provides at least 7 g of protein per 100 g. The more protein in the milk, the thicker your yogurt will be—check the Nutrition Facts label on the carton. Almond, rice, and coconut milk often contain about 1 g of protein per 100 g, which usually isn’t enough for a thick texture. If you want to use these milks, try adding a plant‑based protein powder (widely available online).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVIVO Probiotic Vegan Yogurt Starter is designed for fermenting plant‑based milk. Its high concentration of beneficial bacteria also allows it to be used in its pure form without fermentation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eProbiotic Vegan Yogurt Starter helps support healthy microflora balance and may help crowd out unwanted microbes.
