Originally, buttermilk was the liquid left behind after churning butter out of cream. It also refers to a range of fermented milk drinks, common in warm climates

Butter milk is one of the best drinks specially in summers. It helps keep your cool...

I found that the butter milk in the northern parts of India is thicker than that in the southern parts of India... Is there a specific reason for this?

Originally, the term buttermilk referred to milk that was left over after churning butter from cream. Now, it's often created by adding culture to pasteurized milk. Both methods yield that familiar buttermilk taste. Because buttermilk is low in both fat and calories, many use it as a substitute for regular milk or cream to help lose weight. Buttermilk also regulates bowel movements and the general digestive track, which also helps promote weight loss. You can drink buttermilk plain or add sweetener to it for a less tart taste. You can also substitute buttermilk for cream, half and half or milk products when baking.

Buttermilk is highly efficient in dipping the amount of heat produced in the body due to many internal and external conditions such as high temperature. Therefore, buttermilk is consumed large quantities during summer season

Buttermilk is also an excellent deep-cleansing agent. The skin is also nourished if you make a mixture of two teaspoons buttermilk and a few drops of almond oil and rose water. Before bath, apply this mixture over the face and neck. Allow it to stay for half an hour. Then wash it off.
Buttermilk also has a cooling effect on the head. Apply buttermilk for twenty minutes on your hair. Rub your hair well with fingers. Finally rinse your hair with warm water. You can add a few drops of lemon juice and honey for a lustrous and glowing result
Buttermilk is lower in fat than regular milk, since the fat has been removed to make butter. It is also high in potassium, vitamin B12, calcium, and riboflavin as well as a good source of phosphorus. Those with digestive problems are often advised to drink buttermilk rather than milk, as it is more quickly digested. Hence a daily intake of buttermilk is essential to keep the skin and body fit, supple and healthy.

Ayurveda describes the buttermilk as "Takra". It is the fatless liquid curd. To prepare takra the cream is churned in to butter and the churned buttermilk is called takra. It is the fluid remaining when the fat is removed.

Those with digestive problems are often advised to drink buttermilk rather than milk, as it is more quickly digested. Buttermilk has more lactic acid than skim milk.
