Yogurt

Yogurt is a balanced source of calcium and protein. This nutrient dense Superfood contains active cultures that help keep the digestive system balanced.

did you know?

  • One cup of yogurt has as much potassium as a medium banana and 30% of the daily value for calcium!
  • For a lower calorie option, reach for plain, unsweetened yogurt.
  • Greek yogurt has about twice as much protein and less sodium than regular yogurt.
  • Yogurts with live & active cultures act as probiotics to help keep our digestive systems balanced.
  • When choosing a yogurt, consider the type of milk it is made from, the sweetener (if any) and whether or not it contains active cultures.
  • Yogurt combines well with sweet or savory ingredients, so look beyond parfaits to dips, smoothies, soups and other dishes made with yogurt.
