Light Greek yogurt is a creamy, protein-packed dairy product originating from Greece, traditionally known for its rich texture and tangy flavor. Made by straining regular yogurt to remove excess liquid, it delivers a thick consistency while maintaining fewer calories and reduced fat compared to traditional options. Typically composed of cultured milk, live probiotics, and minimal sugar, light Greek yogurt is celebrated for its high protein content, which supports muscle repair and sustains energy. It also contains calcium for bone health and probiotics that promote gut wellness. However, some varieties may include added sugars or sweeteners, so it's important to check labels when choosing a healthier option. Versatile in use, it pairs well with fruits, granola, or savory dishes, making it a staple in Mediterranean cuisine and a modern favorite for health-conscious eaters worldwide.
