"Im Gegensatz zu herkömmlichem Joghurt wird beim griechischen Joghurt
die Molke länger abgetropft." Deshalb enthält dieser auch mehr Eiweiß.
Außerdem hat griechischer Joghurt einen höheren Fettgehalt von bis zu 10
Prozent. Inzwischen bieten immer mehr deutsche Molkereien die Variante
"Joghurt griechischer Art" an.
Improving bone health
Eating Greek yogurt may improve bone health, as it is rich in calcium
and protein. Calcium promotes bone health and can reduce the risk of
osteoporosisTrusted Source, a degenerative bone disease. Consuming
enough protein is also vital for bone healthTrusted Source.
Boosting metabolism Research
Trusted Source suggests that eating a high-protein diet may increase
the number of calories a person burns per day. It is best to include
some protein with every meal. Despite its protein content, eating
Greek yogurt alone is unlikely to make a person burn more calories.
But eating Greek yogurt, as part of a balanced diet that includes
enough protein, fibrous carbohydrates, and healthful fats may aid
weight loss and boost metabolism.
