Flavored yogurt can be beneficial as a source of protein, calcium and other nutrients. However, it can also contain high quantities of added sugar, which can contribute to excessive calorie intake and health problems such as obesity and heart disease. It is therefore important to read food labels and choose flavored yogurts in moderation, favoring those which contain less added sugar. Non -flavored yogurts can also be a healthier option, as they do not contain added sugar and can be embellished with fresh fruit for natural and healthy flavor.
