Hi Team! Our recent Grocery Store videos (link below this post) have raised some questions regarding making the best choice when shopping for your home, so I decided to create a blog addressing each one.
To begin, let’s talk yogurt. That creamy deliciousness that can be a healthy snack hero or a sugar-coated villain. But no worries, we’re here to help you make the right decision!
First rule: Ditch the neon colors and cartoon characters. They’re there to distract you from the real star: the NUTRITION LABEL!
Here’s what to look for:
- Sugar: Less is more! Aim for “no added sugar” or under 10g per serving. ❌
- Live cultures: These little guys are your gut’s BFFs, so look for “live active cultures”.
- Protein: Aim for 10-20g per serving. Greek yogurt is your friend here, but don’t forget the Icelandic and Aussie options!
- Fat: Choose low-fat (2%) or fat-free if you’re watching calories, but full-fat can offer satiety and some vitamins. ⚖️
Bonus tip: Plain yogurt is your blank canvas! Add fresh fruit, nuts, seeds, or spices for a flavor fiesta.
Remember, healthy eating shouldn’t be a chore, so have fun exploring! And if you want someone else to handle the shopping and cooking for the week, give us a call!
