No, bacteria inside it is alive but the yogurt itself is not, so no yogurt is not alive. Some people may think that it is, but yogurt is dairy that contains edibal bacteria, but the dairy, witch is the yogurt, is not accually alive.

  • Yogurt or yoghurt or yoghourt is a fermented milk product produced by bacterial fermentation of milk.
  • The bacteria used to make yogurt are known as "yogurt cultures". Fermentation of lactose by these bacteria produces lactic acid, which acts on milk protein to give yogurt its texture and its characteristic tang.
  • The live bacteria in yogurt are thought to have many health benefits, such as prevention of certain infections, calming of lactose intolerance, and lessening diarrhea.

Why would yogurt makers put live bacteria in the yogurt you eat?

The bacteria in yogurt is necessary for the creation of the yogurt - those bacteria are actually what is responsible for transforming the milk into yogurt. They are left alive for you to eat because science is finding certain bacteria are very beneficial for your digestive system and can thus have many beneficial affects on health in general. You can read more about this if you look up "probiotics". Because of this, it is even possible to take these bacteria in pill form to get the benefits without eating the yogurt.
