About Blueberry greek yogurt

Blueberry Greek yogurt combines the creamy texture of strained yogurt with the sweet-tart flavor of blueberries, which are native to North America. Greek yogurt, a staple in Mediterranean cuisine, is thicker than regular yogurt due to its concentrated protein content. Blueberries provide antioxidants and vitamins, while yogurt is rich in calcium, protein, and probiotics. Together, this food serves as a nutrient-dense snack or breakfast option benefiting overall health. A serving typically offers high protein (up to 10-20 g depending on the brand), calcium, vitamin D, antioxidants like anthocyanins, and dietary fiber when blueberries are included.

Health Benefits

• Supports bone health due to high calcium and added vitamin D in Greek yogurt.
• Improves digestion with probiotics that promote a healthy gut microbiome.
• Boosts immune function through anthocyanins, the antioxidant pigments found in blueberries.
