Greek yogurt is a creamy and versatile dairy product originating from Greece, favored in Mediterranean cuisine for its rich taste and nutritional benefits. Known for its thick texture, it is created by straining regular yogurt to remove whey, resulting in higher protein content. Packed with probiotics, Greek yogurt promotes gut health and supports digestion. It contains essential nutrients like calcium for bone strength, potassium for muscle function, and vitamin B12 for energy production. Typically lower in carbohydrates than regular yogurt, it is suitable for various diets, including low-carb and high-protein regimens. However, fat content can vary; full-fat versions are higher in saturated fats, while non-fat options provide a lighter alternative. Greek yogurt is an excellent snack, smoothie base, or substitute for sour cream in recipes, offering a creamy boost to meals while supporting a balanced diet.
