HOW TO GET THE MOST OUT OF FOOD CHOICES. THIS WEEK: YOGHURT
BAD: WITH GRANOLA AND HONEY
Yoghurt is the only really good part of this trio. Add a small portion of nutty granola and two teaspoons of honey and you’ll typically take in around 19g of added sugar that is bad for your teeth and waistline — that’s almost two-thirds of the daily limit for an adult.
GOOD: RAITA DIP
Swap higher-fat dips for raita, made with unsweetened natural yoghurt, and your waistline will thank you. A 2 tbsp serving has less than 70 calories, while the same amount of sour cream dip can supply well over 100 calories. The mint and cucumber aren’t in enough quantities to be of benefit, though.
BEST: GREEK 5 PER CENT FAT WITH BERRIES
Greek yoghurt is higher in protein than other types as some of the fluid is strained, making it more filling. The 5 per cent fat variety is a good compromise between creaminess and excess saturated fat. Adding a big handful of berries to a 100g portion makes for a healthy breakfast.
