THE PHILOSOPHY BEHIND

While you have got quite some information on types and benefits of healthy diet, with Mediterranean diet leading the pack, now we can add one source specifically: Greek yogurt.

GREEK VS. REGULAR YOGURT

But what is ‘Greek’ yogurt in comparison to ‘regular’ yogurt?
 
Greek yogurt is fermented as a type of probiotic with bacterial live cultures in milk, and with less sugar than regular yogurt. After fermentation, most of liquid whey is strained off which makes the yogurt more consistent and concentrated – with more protein.   
 
Additional to those nutrients highly beneficial for our health too, besides protein, such as
 
  • vitamin B-12
  • calcium
  • probiotics
  • iodine
