so many yoghurts !!!

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.

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

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.

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 eat the weightwatchers ones at 50 calories or less ,I use greek natural for cooking .I also make my own when I can be bothered/have time ,the family prefer home made

Full fat, no sugar, with live cultures.
Yeo and M&S are my favourites.

Sweetened ones contain quite s lot of sugar or artificial sweeteners - no thanks.

Like janeainsworth I eat the full fat, live cultures. I used to make it myself but have not done that for a while now. Often eat with a sprinkle of ground up seeds & nuts, occasionally fruit. I don't really like sweetened yoghurt. Might add OH will only eat the sweetened varieties, still I make sure it is the active sort.

I buy the fat free, plain ones and add my own flavouring such as fruit. If necessary, I add a sugar substitute.

I’d rather have the fat than the sugar. I like thick plain yoghurts best with a handful of walnuts or blueberries.

Actimel fat free no added sugar first thing in the morning and Activia sugar free after dinner.

Best yogurt. Full fat Greek. Add your own berries etc . Lovely

Full fat, live cultures for me too
I do like plain full fat Greek yogurt too, add fruit from the garden or a banana.

Easiyo yogurt for us. It is so easy to make and there are lots of flavours. Once I had tasted it I never wanted any other kind. My favourite is the basic Greek yogurt and I add fruit or a teaspoon of jam to flavour. Once made it lasts up to two weeks in the fridge although I can never keep it that long!

I favour Waitrose full fat Greek yogurt and, on their own (without accompaniments) Activia, which are full of millions of live cultures to keep your gut healthy.

One can also make healthy yogurt in a home by inserting lemon choice in the fresh milk. After inserting, keep milk for 5 to 6 hours and your yogurt is ready with healthy bacteria.

I have a simple solution, I loathe yoghourt, all yoghourt, so never have to worry myself about choosing any.

I usually just buy little pots of supermarket own brand low sugar fruit yogurt. I do occasionally buy other types if they take my fancy but I have to check the ingredients first as many contain pork gelatine.

I'm pre-diabetic, so desperately trying to give up sugar.
So many yoghurts are full of sugar, so I've just switched to
natural yoghurt, but even that contains some.
I make 'overnight oats' with fruit, yoghurt and oats etc.

Full fat Greek yoghurt for me, I've trained myself to like it instead of the "fruit ones. I add some fruit, chopped apple, blueberries etc - and museli and nuts and seeds, so it is a real meal. I get Lidl Milbona (bargain) or Tescos own.

Low fat means full of sugar or sweeteners. I think full fat is more satisfying.

Natural yogurt - I use it with strawberry jam for 'afters'.
I make a savoury sauce to use with rice. I have a recipe for a yogurt cake which I made some years ago.
Dilute the yogurt......it's a lovely cool drink on a hot summer day.
You can add milk shake powder and whisk , adding ice cubes ....lovely in summer.

I make my own in the slow cooker. Really easy. Full fat milk, nothing else except a little of the leftover live yoghurt from the previous batch to get it going (fermenting)

Much of the stuff you buy in supermarkets isn’t live and is full of unnecessary added ingredients. Check the ingredients on the back.

If you just want something sweet for a dessert that’s fine. If you actually want something with health benefits then not so fine.

henetha the sugars you are talking about may not be added. Milk contains a natural intrinsic sugar called lactose. Read the ingredients list to be sure.

Much of the lactose ought to be broken down by the fermentation process anyway in natural live yoghurt.

Skyr.
I tried it first in Iceland in 1979! Now Arla do it and it's available in supermarkets here. It's the only yoghurt I buy these days and it has a number of healthy features.

Thanks Anja... I had a vague idea that some sugars are sort of natural, but am not sure if they are safe for my pre-diabetic state or not,.
