Yogurt has several anticancer properties.
One strain of L. acidophilus, has shown to inhibit the growth of certain cancer cells. Studies have found a reduced incidence of breast cancer among people who eat large quantities of yogurt and other fremented milk.
It can prevent carcinogenic substances, including bile salts, in the intestines from actually becoming carcinogenic, and can keep harmful substances from being absorbed by the body.
Yogurt can reduce the level of unhealthy enzymes in the stool. In one study cancer promoting stool bacteria were three times less active in patients fed milk containing L. acidophilus every day for 4 weeks.
