Danestress Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 Quick question. I keep seeing low carb sites where people talk about full fat yogurt being preferable. Which is fine with me, because I LOVE full fat greek yogurt. But why is that considered better for low carbers than low fat? I checked, and the full fat and low fat have the same carbs per 8 ounces.

happypamama Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 I believe it is partly because a lot of low-carb plans focus on eating real, whole foods, and yogurt naturally has fat, but mainly because the fat helps carry the flavor and helps fill you up so that you are satiated longer.

Ellie Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 Low-carb diets also include high fat (and protein). :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
