Thanks Tanya. With endless rows of choice in the yogurt section of my supermarket, its good to know that there ARE some that are low in carbs, calories and sugar – all important for those of us losing or maintaining weight.

I imagine most of us pay attention to sugar content, fiber and protein when we purchase yogurt. However, I’m inclined to agree with ‘freelisa’ – when I saw the topic question, I also was hoping to find info pertaining to the regular grocery store variety of yogurts, and the claims of digestive benefits from some brands.

I bet she really wanted to know if the yoghurts advertised on tv constantly like Activia really populate your digestive track with beneficial flora and if so which brand ie yoplait or activia or dannon or no-name brands…sugar free or not, etc are best. When the average american asks to compare brands, they usually mean nationwide brands not obscure greek organic brands. Just saying…this answer was unhelpful. So, do brands like activia really give a health benefit as advertised?
