8 Reasons Greek Yogurt Is Good For You

I offered my insights about the health benefits of Greek yogurt in this article for Women’s Health:

“I absolutely love the texture and taste of Greek yogurt,” says nutritionist Maya Feller, RD, CDN. “It’s such a great way to add a ton of nutrients to your diet, and I find that it’s super easy to incorporate into every single meal—not just breakfast.”

Of course, like all yogurts, not every Greek yogurt is created equal. “Ideally, you want your Greek yogurt to have about 200 calories, a minimum of 2 percent fat, less than 10 grams of total sugar, and at least six grams of protein per serving,” says Feller. “The lower the fat content, the more likely they’ll add extra sugar in, so you need to be mindful of that.”
