Plain yogurt FAQ
Does plain yogurt contain sugar?
Yes, plain yogurt contains some amount of sugar, even if it's labeled as "unsweetened." The sugar in plain yogurt is naturally occurring lactose. A regular serving (about 1 cup or 245 grams) of low-fat plain yogurt contains about 12 grams of sugar. For reference, the American Heart Association recommends a maximum daily sugar intake of 25 grams for women and 36 grams for men.
Is plain yogurt gluten-free?
Yes, plain yogurt is naturally gluten-free as it's made from milk, which does not contain gluten. However, those with severe gluten intolerances or celiac disease should be cautionary, as some yogurts can become contaminated with gluten during the manufacturing process, especially if processed at plants that also process gluten-containing foods.
Is plain yogurt keto?
Although plain yogurt contains some carbs due to the natural sugars (lactose), it can still be included in a keto diet in moderation. A one-cup serving of plain low-fat yogurt contains about 17 grams of total carbs. Typically, a strict ketogenic diet aims for a daily intake of only 20-50 grams of carbohydrates, so portion size should carefully be considered.
Is plain yogurt high in protein?
Yes, plain low-fat yogurt is high in protein. A typical one-cup serving of plain low-fat yogurt provides about 13 grams of protein, which amounts to around 26% of the daily recommended intake for an average woman and around 21% for an average man. For context, experts generally recommend that an adult should consume 46-56 grams of protein per day.
