It is confusing! There are all these new ones, too, such as kefir yogurt and skyr yogurt, to name but two.

I now only buy plain full fat yogurt and add flavourings myself. I also make my own, with a spoonful or two from a commercial yogurt as starter.

I agree that it is confusing. We are not helped by the constantly changing advice. Now cream, whole milk and full fat yogurts are being recommended because of the nutrients they contain.

My choice is a low sugar yogurt, because I eat it with fruit. It is impossible to read all the labels to make comparisons though.

Like most food it has to have fat or sugar or it would be tasteless.

Maybe natural yogurt is best, full fat if your health and figure will take it. Then you can flavour it yourself .

I like Mullerlight but I go to slimmers world so I am indoctrinated.

Whilst shopping yesterday I spoke to a lady who was sorting through the stacks of yoghurts as was I. We both agreed there were so many different types it was difficult to make a healthy choice. Fat free, low fat, sugar free but high in fat, natural, ones with added bacteria, Greek with or without honey, plus of course all the flavoured varieties. Can anyone say which is the healthy one to choose. I am trying to eat healthily but must confess become totally confused when buying yoghurt. Is it better to have high fat rather than the low fat as they have more sugar. Can anyone recomend a good one as i have yog every morning for breakfast with berries, nuts and seeds and dont want to be fooling myself it is healthly when it isn't!!
