Why Lassi?
Lassi (pronounced LAH-see) is fresh yogurt blended with room temperature water. Yogurt by itself can clog the channels of the digestive and elimination systems, but once it is transformed into Lassi, it actually aids digestion. Thinning yogurt with water and blending it changes the molecular structure so it is more easily assimilated. You can drink either Sweet Lassi or Digestive Lassi before or with lunch.
