Ryazhenka is a fragrant fermented milk drink. It is made from milk and sourdough (sometimes cream is added). This product has a delicate, slightly sweet taste. But fermented baked milk is known not only for its taste, it is also a useful product, which contains probiotics and prebiotics. These substances have a positive effect on the immune system, stimulate digestion, improve the condition of the skin and are responsible for the biosynthesis of vitamins.
Ryazhenka is a product that is almost always present in the diet of every athlete. Fermented milk drink normalizes the work of many organs, which leads to excellent health and increased efficiency.
But like all other products, in some situations fermented baked milk can be harmful to health. Who can drink fermented baked milk, and who should refrain from using it? What is the role of this fermented milk product in sports nutrition? What is the chemical composition of the drink? Let's figure it out!
Nutritional value, calorie content and chemical composition
The rich chemical composition of fermented baked milk gives this product valuable properties, even though the calorie content is quite high for a fermented milk product.
In addition to beneficial bacteria, fermented baked milk contains vitamins:
- vitamin C;
- vitamin PP;
- vitamin A;
- B vitamins;
- vitamin C;
- beta carotene.
It is also rich in fermented baked milk and minerals:
- phosphorus;
- potassium;
- magnesium;
- sodium;
- iron;
- calcium.
Only 500 ml (this is an average of two glasses) of this fermented milk drink - and the daily dose of essential vitamins and minerals will be in the body. You do not have to worry about the deficiency of phosphorus and calcium, which leads to dental problems, adversely affects the condition of hair and nails.
Ryazhenka is a high-calorie fermented milk product. However, do not be afraid of the calorie content. The lactic acid contained in the drink has many beneficial properties and benefits the body, which fully justifies the extra calories.
In fermented baked milk with 1% fat there is only 40 kcal, in a product where the fat content is 2.5% - 54 kcal, in 4% - 76 kcal, and in 6% - 85 kcal. When choosing a product, give preference to a fatty one, even if you are on a diet, as only a high-fat drink will benefit due to the sufficient amount of lactic acids. Low-calorie fermented baked milk is depleted in useful compounds and will not be able to endow the body with a sufficient amount of vitamins and minerals.
The composition of the BZHU product with a fat content of 2.5% per 100 g is as follows:
- Proteins - 2.9 g;
- Fat - 2.5 g;
- Carbohydrates - 4.2 g.
But the composition of the BZHU product with a fat content of 4% per 100 g looks like this:
- Proteins - 2.8 g;
- Fat - 4 g;
- Carbohydrates - 4.2 g.
Thus, only the fat content changes, but the quantitative content of proteins and carbohydrates remains practically unchanged.
On average, one glass of fermented baked milk (which is 250 ml) contains 167.5 kcal.
Many are afraid of the high calorie and fat content of the product - for this reason, it is often excluded from the list of dietary products. But is it right? Let's take a closer look at the benefits of this product for the human body.

Naturally, there are not so many glycoproteins in fermented baked milk, but you should not get too carried away with this drink.
