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!!

I’m a recent convert to kefir Davida1968! A friend has been making it for years and gave me some last month and I’ve been surprised at how easy it is!

I sometimes have it neat first thing or dolloped on a pudding. My DH still prefers flavoured yogurts and finds the kefir too sour.

Having spent many summers in Greece,I think full fat Greek yogurt with fruit,nuts ,a little Greek honey is wonderful.

Plain yogurt and we make our own from UHT skimmed milk, we make a pint at a time and have it with cornflakes, or just fruit and nuts.
