Is Greek yogurt superior to regular yogurt?

 

Greek yogurt is more popular than ever - but is it any better for us?

 

Yes, according to fitness and nutrition expert Amanda Russell. All yogurt is strained. Regular yogurt is strained twice, while Greek yogurt is strained three times. That’s what gives it a thicker consistency. That extra straining leaves Greek yogurt with less whey, lactose, carbs and sugar - and twice the protein, which makes it the healthier choice.
