Greek Yogurt Recommendation Ranking
Greek yogurt," a health food, is now quietly booming in Tokyo. Its high nutritional value, high in protein and low in sugar, makes it popular among women on diets and men on muscle training regimens. In this issue, we will introduce the top 3 recommended Greek yogurt restaurants in Tokyo in a ranking format.
In addition, we will also thoroughly explain the "merits & demerits of Greek yogurt" that you should know before eating it!
4 Advantages of Greek Yogurt
- High protein, low fat, and diet-friendly
Because the water content of Greek yogurt is cut off more thoroughly than that of regular yogurt, the amount of protein is about twice as much! Easy to feel full. - Effective in improving the intestinal environment
Rich in lactic acid bacteria, it is easy to improve intestinal flora. Good for women who hope to relieve constipation. - Rich and tasty even without sugar
Creamy texture due to the draining process. The sweetness of the ingredients is satisfying without the addition of sweeteners. - Can be freely arranged for both sweets and meals
Can be enjoyed as a dessert topped with honey and nuts, or as a dip with salt and olive oil.
Four disadvantages of Greek yogurt
- Slightly expensive
The process requires a lot of ingredients because of the water that is discarded in the process. As a result, it is more expensive than regular yogurt. - Sourness may be strong
Natural type may be difficult to eat for those who do not like sour taste. - Fat content is not zero.
Low fat does not mean zero fat, so excessive consumption may cause calorie overload. - May take time to digest
Because of the high protein content, people with weak stomachs should try it in small quantities.
