Greek yogurt is strained more thoroughly than traditional, low-fat yogurt, which is what gives it its thick, creamy texture and high protein content. This process also helps to remove some of the naturally occurring sugars and carbs. Why’s all this matter? Any food that’s low in sugar and carbs, high in protein, and has a bit of healthy fat, is sure to promote satiety. Simply put: Snacking on Greek yogurt may just help you feel fuller, longer, so you’ll be less tempted to snack on less wholesome fare. That’s something low-fat containers of ‘gurt can’t claim.
