Is Greek Yogurt Healthy?

Was screaming in my mind to close the damn door. I'm definitely gonna be one of those dads.

I bought the whole milk, plain, grass fed version Greek yogurt from this brand. Delicious

I was new to Greek Yogurt and started eating them earlier this year (2024). I'm a ice cream person so I wasn't used to Yogurt more or less Greek Yogurt.
But here is what I learned & others may need to know (to the best of my knowledge). I had to get the Zero Sugar type (for my health concerns).

1) My dietitian told me to get Chobani because it was the healthiest closest to organic with the most live and active cultures that do wonders for your health out of all the brands.
But she said any Greek Yogurt (because that is the healthiest yogurt) is the healthiest type of yogurt but for me with Zero Sugar because of dietary restrictions.

2) I have tried several brands from Chobani to Danone's Oikos. Most will have the dry powdery & water at the top, that is Not a bad thing & is actually excellent. It is just natural separation that happens with most products especially dairy. What that stuff is Whey from the milk. *(Health food stores charge a lot of money for it to sell to fitness people, there is a different process for it & they do it in bulk. Your not going to get any money from yours that's in the yogurt. ).
If you don't see a protective plastic film on top like some brands, it is still good Chobani uses only a silver foil to seal the container.
Actually better than the ones with the plastic film on top because it allows it to separate.
The plastic film protection ones are not as healthy. Because the reason they don't separate is that they are more processed to stop it from separating so you lose some nutritional benefits.

3) There are 2 methods well 3 if you don't want to mix it and eat it right away which is cool if you like to do it that way.
But to mix it there are two methods. 1 - Shake the entire container thoroughly and then stir with a spoon. or 2 - Stir the entire container thoroughly with a spoon until the Greek Yogurt is smooth and has a silky texture.

4) If it's spoiled you will see mold & smell funky not like the flavor the particular one you picked. Example you choose peach but there is no peach smell & smells like mildew.

Update: I tried recently different types (a little cheat from my diet) and on some the silver foil that comes off it states on it to lick the silver foil and scrap the sides and stir with a spoon.
So basically they are stating that, that stuff (the water & whey separation) is a okay to eat or as I mentioned okay to mixed in using whatever method you like to mixed it whether shaken before opening or stirring with a spoon.

Ive been getting greek yogurt for years. Plain and nonfat, one or two ingredients. High protein and decent probiotics, there are alot of store brand ones that are very affordable. I also did not know that the regular versions are actually better for you compared to nonfat, I gotta keep that in mind for next time

I love to take this yogurt and blend in blueberries bc I’m a blueberry addict. It is so good and satisfying.

Like 95% of yogurt sold in stores is no fat or low fat. It’s a damn shame. Feel like a maniac picking up every single kind of yogurt trying to find regular whole milk yogurt.

Fage Greek yogurt brand is the best. Brand they carry in Greece. Was so excited when it came to the Midwest grocery stores

[annsmith]

Buy the Fage yogurt ! It is the best yogurt out there ! IT is very filling and use the full fat --- it is substantial and you won't be looking for food in an hour.

If you want flavor, just add a little bit if honey and some fruit.
