Incorporate Greek yogurt to improve your health
Yogurt is always included on healthy food lists (and not by accident)! Yogurt is highly nutritious and is an excellent source of protein, calcium and potassium. It provides numerous vitamins and minerals and is relatively low in calories.
Many people who are lactose intolerant can enjoy yogurt. Yogurt contains lower amounts of lactose than milk because the lactose in yogurt is converted to lactic acid by the bacterial cultures. Lactic acid bacteria in yogurt, acidophilus milk and fermented dairy foods such as kefir can help lessen the effects of lactose intolerance.
If you want to give your yogurt a nutritional upgrade, go for Greek yogurt! Greek Yogurt can pack about double the protein of regular yogurt thanks to its straining process, which removes the liquid whey along with some sugars.
Go ahead and add Greek yogurt to your healthy foods list if you haven’t already. Whether you choose plain, Greek, flavored or low-fat, yogurt is a nutrient-packed snack that nourishes you with a generous amount of calcium and protein, along with B vitamins and minerals, including potassium, phosphorus and magnesium!
