With so many yogurt options on the shelves, how do you know which one is best while dieting?
Here’s a quick two-step method to help you choose:
1️⃣ Check the protein content.
Use The Protein Test: Take the grams of protein, add a 0, and compare it to the total calories. If the calories are equal to or less than that number, it passes.
Example:
Maple Hill – 180 calories | 13g protein
130 calories or less? No — does not pass the Protein Test.
Siggi’s – 120 calories | 18g protein
180 calories or less? Yes — passes the Protein Test.
2️⃣ Check the added sugar.
Look for the line that says “Includes Xg Added Sugar” on the label. Aim for a lower number in order to reduce the amount of added sugar you’re eating.
Use this simple checklist next time you’re in the dairy aisle to make smarter, higher-protein choices.
