Yogurt

So over the #weekend I made #parfait . I found @mich_andkay at a supermarket close to me. I was so so happy. But due to the fact I am watching what I take in, I #decided to check the #importance and #health #benefits of #greek #yoghurt . I was #blown away hence my #sharing my #discovery today.
What is Greek yogurt?

Greek, or strained, yogurt isn’t just a fad. This dairy product, which is different from regular, sweeter yogurt, has quadrupled in production from 2008 to 2013. Greek yogurt makers add an extra step to their process so that excess water, #lactose , and minerals drain out. What’s left is a creamy, rich yogurt with less #sugar , more #carbs , and a tart taste. The acidity also makes it easier for your body to absorb other nutrients.

One serving is packed with nutrients

Check the nutrition chart below to see which vitamins and nutrients a plain cup of nonfat Greek yogurt has.

An average serving, depending on the brand, can have 12 to 17.3 grams of protein.

A cup of plain Greek yogurt can help you meet the recommended dietary guideline of three daily servings of low-fat or nonfat dairy products. People who have lactose intolerance may also find Greek yogurt easier to digest because of the bacterial breakdown of the milk’s sugars.
