Healthy Foods That Are More Nutritious Than You Realize

11. Yogurt

If you push past the yogurts marketed to children with their high sugar content and the “diet” versions made with artificial sweeteners, yogurt can be a seriously healthy food and essential part of our diets.

Yogurt is full of good-for-your-gut probiotics, which helps boost our digestion, immunity and brain health. Yogurt is also an excellent source of calcium and protein for strong bones and can add creaminess to dishes without all the fat and calories of heavy cream. We love using yogurt in our Cajun Salmon with Greek Yogurt Remoulade to lighten things up, and it is especially delicious in our super-convenient Granola & Yogurt Breakfast Popsicles.
