This is because the goal of a keto or very low-carb diet is to limit carb intake so your body burns fat for fuel instead of carbs.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, not all types of yogurt are off-limits on a keto or very low-carb diet. In fact, there are several brands and types of yogurt that are perfectly suitable for such diets. The key is knowing which ones to pick and how much you can have.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Which_Yogurt_Is_Lowest_in_Carbohydrates\"><\/span><b>Which Yogurt Is Lowest in Carbohydrates?<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Plain, non-fat Greek yogurt is lowest in carbohydrates among all the dairy yogurt choices. It typically contains just 3.6 grams of carbs per 100-gram serving (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/fdc.nal.usda.gov\/fdc-app.html#\/food-details\/330137\/nutrients\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">11<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">). The whole-milk version contains approximately 4.75 grams of carbs per 100-gram serving (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/fdc.nal.usda.gov\/fdc-app.html#\/food-details\/2259794\/nutrients\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">12<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">), which is still relatively low in comparison to other types of yogurt.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Skyr, which is a type of Icelandic yogurt, is also low in carbs and has approximately 10 grams of carbs per 100-gram serving (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/fdc.nal.usda.gov\/fdc-app.html#\/food-details\/776018\/nutrients\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">10<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Some plant-based options, particularly coconut milk yogurt, are a great alternative for those who prefer a dairy-free option. However, it&#8217;s important to check the nutrition label as coconut milk yogurt may contain added sugars that can increase the carb count.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_Yogurt_Can_You_Eat_on_Keto\"><\/span><b>What Yogurt Can You Eat on Keto?<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Plain, whole-milk Greek yogurt is the top choice for those who are\u00a0 following a keto diet. It has low carbs and is also high in fat and protein, which makes it an ideal option to keep you feeling full and satisfied (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sciencedirect.com\/science\/article\/pii\/S0924224414002386\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">6<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you don&#8217;t like the texture or taste of Greek yogurt, plain, unsweetened whole-milk yogurt is acceptable. Just make sure you read the nutrition label and avoid any added sugars or flavorings, as they can quickly add up in carbs. You should opt for full-fat options and try to stick to 1 serving (approximately 5-7 ounces) per day.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Always consider your overall carb intake for the day when you include yogurt in your meals. If you&#8217;re close to your daily limit, it&#8217;s best to skip yogurt and choose a different source of protein.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Reasons why BetterMe is a safe bet: a wide range of calorie-blasting workouts, finger-licking recipes, 24\/7 support, challenges that\u2019ll keep you on your best game, and that just scratches the surface! <a href=\"https:\/\/quiz.betterme.world\/first-page-generated?flow=2228&amp;utm_source=Blog&amp;utm_medium=Blog&amp;utm_campaign=low_carb_yogurt\">Start using our app and watch the magic happen<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Is_Greek_Yogurt_Carb-Friendly\"><\/span><b>Is Greek Yogurt Carb-Friendly?<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Greek yogurt can be considered carb-friendly, but it&#8217;s important to choose the right type and <a href=\"https:\/\/betterme.world\/articles\/portion-size-guide\/\">portion size<\/a>. As previously mentioned, plain, non-fat Greek yogurt is the best option with the lowest carb count. However, even whole-milk Greek yogurt can still fit into a low-carb or keto diet as long as you keep track of your overall carb intake.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The difference in carbs between all types of yogurt is worth considering, as not everyone can tolerate the taste of plain low-carb Greek yogurt.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are three main types of dairy-based yogurt available on the market: regular, Greek, and skyr yogurt. All three types are made from fermented milk and are generally considered to be healthy options. However, each of them has a different manufacturing process that determines their nutritional value and carb content.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_Is_Regular_Yogurt_Made\"><\/span><b>How Is Regular Yogurt Made?<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Regular yogurt (also known as plain or whole-milk yogurt) is made by fermenting milk with live bacteria cultures (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/30506248\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">14<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">). The fermentation process produces lactic acid, giving the yogurt its tangy taste and helps in the breakdown of lactose (milk sugar).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Regular yogurt has a smooth, creamy texture and is high in calcium, protein, and vitamins B2 and B12 (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC9455928\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">1<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you&#8217;ve ever opened a tub of yogurt and noticed a watery layer on top, this is the liquid whey that is a natural byproduct of the fermentation process. Regular yogurt has a higher amount of liquid whey compared to Greek or skyr yogurt.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This liquid whey also contains carbs, which means regular yogurt has a higher carb content than the other two types. A 100-gram serving of plain whole-milk yogurt contains approximately 5.6 grams of carbs (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/fdc.nal.usda.gov\/fdc-app.html#\/food-details\/2259793\/nutrients\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">13<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/quiz.betterme.world\/first-page-generated?flow=2228&amp;utm_source=Blog&amp;utm_medium=Blog&amp;utm_campaign=low_carb_yogurt\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-30039 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/101.png\" alt=\"low carb yogurt\" \/>\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_Is_Greek_Yogurt_Made\"><\/span><b>How Is Greek Yogurt Made?<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Greek yogurt is made using a similar process to that for regular yogurt, but there is an additional step \u2013 straining. After fermentation, the yogurt is strained to remove the liquid whey, which results in a thicker and creamier texture. The straining process also removes some of the lactose and sugar from the yogurt, which makes it lower in carbs (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sciencedirect.com\/science\/article\/pii\/S0958694618302012\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">9<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A 156-gram tub of plain nonfat Greek yogurt typically contains approximately 6 grams of carbs (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/fdc.nal.usda.gov\/fdc-app.html#\/food-details\/330137\/nutrients\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">11<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">), or 3.6 grams per 100 grams of yogurt, which is less than the amount that is found in regular yogurt. It&#8217;s also higher in protein, making it a popular choice for those who are following a low-carb or keto diet.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_Is_Skyr_Yogurt_Made\"><\/span><b>How Is Skyr Yogurt Made?<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Skyr yogurt is similar to Greek yogurt in terms of taste and texture. It has been a staple in Icelandic cuisine for centuries and was only recently introduced in the United States.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Like Greek yogurt, skyr is also made by straining fermented milk to remove the liquid whey. However, skyr goes through an extra step of heating and cooling the milk before fermentation, which results in a thicker consistency and a slightly sweeter taste.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Skyr is also higher in protein and lower in carbs than regular yogurt, with approximately just 10 grams of carbs per 100 grams (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/fdc.nal.usda.gov\/fdc-app.html#\/food-details\/776018\/nutrients\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">10<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">).

While Greek and skyr yogurt are generally considered to be the lowest-carb yogurt types, whole-milk regular yogurt is also acceptable.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Here are some tips for incorporating yogurt into your low-carb or keto diet:<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_Choose_Full-Fat_Options\"><\/span><b>1. Choose Full-Fat Options<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Choosing full-fat yogurt isn&#8217;t just about adhering to the macro ratios of the keto diet; it&#8217;s also about making a mindful choice toward satisfaction from your meals.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Keto_Is_a_High-Fat_Diet\"><\/span><b>Keto Is a High-Fat Diet<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Fat is a key component of the ketogenic diet &#8211; it&#8217;s essential for providing the majority of your daily caloric intake (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/books\/NBK499830\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">7<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">). Full-fat yogurt aligns with this requirement and also helps keep you satiated longer (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/academic.oup.com\/nutritionreviews\/article\/73\/suppl_1\/23\/1819066\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">6<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This feeling of fullness is pivotal in maintaining portion control and avoiding unnecessary snacking, which can be a pitfall for many people on a strict carb limit.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Fat_Is_Necessary_for_Nutrient_Absorption\"><\/span><b>Fat Is Necessary for Nutrient Absorption<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">By opting for full-fat yogurt, you\u2019ll ensure that you&#8217;re not missing out on essential vitamins and minerals that are naturally present in dairy fat. These nutrients include vitamins A, D, E, and K, all of which are fat-soluble, which means they require fat to be properly absorbed by the body (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/books\/NBK218749\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">4<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Consider the quality of the fats in full-fat yogurt. These fats can include conjugated linoleic acid (CLA), which has been associated with various health benefits, including anti-inflammatory properties and improved heart health (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC7401241\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the context of a keto diet, these high-quality fats may contribute positively to your overall well-being.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Low_Fat_Options_May_Have_Added_Sugars\"><\/span><b>Low Fat Options May Have Added Sugars<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There&#8217;s also the matter of added sugars. When manufacturers remove fat from yogurt, they often add sugar or artificial sweeteners to compensate for the loss in taste and texture.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">These added sugars can quickly accumulate, pushing you over your daily carb limit and potentially knocking you out of ketosis.

Use Yogurt as a Substitute in Recipes<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One clever way to incorporate yogurt into your low-carb or keto diet is by substituting it for higher-carb ingredients in recipes. For example, you can use plain Greek yogurt instead of sour cream in dips and sauces or as a marinade for meats.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can even use skyr or Greek yogurt as a base for low-carb smoothies or frozen treats. Simply mix in some low-carb fruits, a low-carb sweetener, and any other desired toppings to make a delicious snack or dessert.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5_Try_Making_Your_Own_Yogurt\"><\/span><b>5.

In this way, you have complete control over the ingredients and can ensure that your yogurt is aligned with your low-carb or keto diet.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can find low-carb yogurt recipes for a homemade version online and the process is relatively simple.

However, you should always check the nutrition label and ingredients list to make sure there are no added sugars.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul><li><h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Does_Greek_yogurt_have_fewer_carbs\"><\/span><strong>Does Greek yogurt have fewer carbs?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3><\/li><\/ul><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Greek yogurt tends to have fewer carbs than regular yogurt. This is because Greek yogurt goes through a straining process that removes some of the lactose (milk sugar), which lowers its carb content. However, the difference is not huge, so if you prefer regular yogurt, you can still make it work on a low-carb diet &#8211; just avoid added sugars.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ul><li><h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_is_Greek_yogurt_lower_in_carbohydrates\"><\/span><strong>Why is Greek yogurt lower in carbohydrates?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3><\/li><\/ul><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Greek yogurt is lower in carbohydrates because it undergoes a straining process that removes some of the lactose (milk sugar) and liquid whey. This leaves behind a thicker, more concentrated yogurt with fewer carbs per serving.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul><li><h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Which_yogurt_has_the_lowest_grams_of_sugar\"><\/span><strong>Which yogurt has the lowest grams of sugar?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3><\/li><\/ul><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Plain, unsweetened Greek or skyr yogurt typically have the lowest grams of sugar compared to other yogurts.
