Marketing Claims
The marketing claims are generally well-supported by the nutritional profile and nature of dahi. 'Good for Bones' is justified by the calcium content. Claims like 'Builds Immunity' and 'Soothes digestive tract' are linked to the benefits of probiotics (active cultures), which is scientifically plausible. The claims are based on the inherent properties of the food and are not misleading.
