About Skyr yoghurt

Skyr is a traditional Icelandic dairy product that's technically a cheese but resembles thick, creamy yogurt. Known for its rich texture and tangy flavor, Skyr is made using skim milk and a specific bacterial culture. It's high in protein, offering a substantial boost for muscle repair and satiety, while being low in fat due to the use of skim milk. Skyr is also a good source of calcium, aiding in bone health, and contains beneficial probiotics that support gut function. Its origins date back to Viking-age Iceland, where it has been a staple in the diet for centuries. While Skyr is generally considered healthy, some flavored varieties may contain added sugars, so checking the label is important for maintaining balanced nutrition. Whether enjoyed plain or as a base for fruit and granola, Skyr is a versatile and nutrient-packed option suitable for many diets.
