Speaker 1: If you regularly buy yogurt, you will know that there
Speaker 1: are literally hundreds of different varieties, which can make it
Speaker 1: almost impossible to know which are better for you, especially
Speaker 1: since the labels are so tiny you can barely see them.
Speaker 1: So today Leanne and I have got our magnifying glasses
Speaker 1: out and picked out three of our favorite varieties to
Speaker 1: share it with you. Hi, I'm Susie Burrow and O'mileanne Wood,
Speaker 1: and as two of us jay Is leading dieticians, we
Speaker 1: bring you the Nutrition Catch Product Review, a weekly chat
Speaker 1: on new products and old favorites that you can find
Speaker 1: in supermarkets. Now, Leanne, I'm not a massive yogurt eater,
Speaker 1: but let's be honest. My clients all love it, my
Speaker 1: kids love it. So there's a lot, isn't there.
Speaker 2: There's so many and I love one of the best
Speaker 2: things I love about yogurt besides the taste, because I
Speaker 2: do think it's delicious, it's filling. I actually find it
Speaker 2: one of the most filling snacks for fat loss. So
Speaker 2: yogurt's probably something that I would have, if not every day,
Speaker 2: every other day.
Speaker 1: And it is. It's proven actually on the list of
Speaker 1: most satisfying foods. That's right up there. I want to
Speaker 1: say it's in the top ten with potato, things like
Speaker 1: rolled oats, eggs, apples, oranges. It's really really known for
Speaker 1: those benefits. But of course, you know, in the past
Speaker 1: we've spoken about yogurt on the main potty where we've
Speaker 1: looked at the different types. There's Greek, there's protein, there's natural,
Speaker 1: and so what we want We've done kids before, We've
Speaker 1: done kids' flavored pouches, so we've really isolated it. We
Speaker 1: want to be very clear, this is not all yogurt.
Speaker 1: This is very specifically fruit based yogurt. So this is
Speaker 1: for people who are looking and enjoy a sweet yogurt.
Speaker 1: And if I think back to when I first studied
Speaker 1: as a dietitian back in early two thousand and this
Speaker 1: was kind of the yogurt that was out there. There
Speaker 1: was plain natural and there was sort of sweet fruit yogurt.
Speaker 1: And there's been massive transformations in yogat in general in
Speaker 1: terms of sugar content and the ranges that are available
Speaker 1: in those twenty years. And yeah, I think our listeners
Speaker 1: will really enjoy this. So I've tried to choose a
Speaker 1: few different options for different reasons, and I was just
Speaker 1: a special shout out today we get some help with
Speaker 1: the potty. We have some girls who do some great
Speaker 1: research for us and this A lot of this has
Speaker 1: been done by Bronti who works for me. It actually
Speaker 1: helped me with some yogas for an article. So I'll
Speaker 1: shout out to Bronte because she does a lot of
Speaker 1: the hard work for us going through and getting this together.
Speaker 1: And also a big shout out to Amy, who helps
Speaker 1: us a lot with our product reviews, So thanks for that.
Speaker 1: So she made it pretty a lot easier for me
Speaker 1: than getting my glasses out trying to read these labels.
Speaker 1: So I picked three from those that she sent through.
Speaker 1: And the first one, le Anne I want to talk
Speaker 1: about is the Dairy Farmers Thick and Creamy, and I've
Speaker 1: just chosen strawberry. The flavors are pretty similar when it
Speaker 1: comes to the nutritional profile, but I've just randomly chosen strawberry.
Speaker 1: Now at the time that we are recording this, they're
Speaker 1: on sale for two dollars fifty for two coals. Now
Speaker 1: they usually I believe, retail at two fifty each. Now,
Speaker 1: the thing about this Dairy Farmers, it's been around for
Speaker 1: as long as I can remember, It was actually one
Speaker 1: of the first yogurts that I really remember talking about
Speaker 1: with my clients. As I said twenty years ago, it
Speaker 1: comes in larger tubs, but there's also the individual tubs
Speaker 1: that used to be Leyan one seventy. Now I noticed
Speaker 1: there one fifty. Not by chance. Everything is like everything
Speaker 1: a little bit, it's smaller. I'll go through thereas first.
Speaker 1: So first it's milk, followed by milk solids, and then cream.
Speaker 1: As soon as we see cream, that's suggestive of not
Speaker 1: only being creamy but also high and fat. Strawberries are
Speaker 1: seven percent, which is pretty good actually for a yogurt,
Speaker 1: followed by sugar, so that is added sugar thickener which
Speaker 1: is a modified starch, natural flavors, lemon juice, concentrate, milk, minerals,
Speaker 1: natural color which I thought was interesting putting a color
Speaker 1: even to make it look a bit brighter, mineral salt.
Speaker 1: Some live yogurt cultures. Now, one of the things that's
Speaker 1: really evolved in the past few years has been this
Speaker 1: focus on gut health, digestive health, and adding different bugs
Speaker 1: to yogurts or in some there'll be naturally occurring. Now
Speaker 1: the issue, of course, is we don't know if all
Speaker 1: of them are indicative of improvements in gut health, but
Speaker 1: certainly there's a lot that are added. And these ones
Speaker 1: look very familiar to me, the types that are in
Speaker 1: this actual yogurt, but they don't specifically mark it on
Speaker 1: gut health benefits. I'm going to compare per hundred grams
Speaker 1: even one hundred mil, even though this is a slightly
Speaker 1: larger serve. So it comes in at just over one
Speaker 1: hundred calories at four hundred and seventy seven kilo dules
Speaker 1: per hundred, which translates this one hundred and fifty gram
Speaker 1: tub to just shive two hundred, so not an insignificant
Speaker 1: number of calories for a snack. It's got three point
Speaker 1: six grams of protein per hundred, and that equates to
Speaker 1: four point five which is not overly high for yogat.
Speaker 1: Now we can get high protein yogurts that can have
Speaker 1: upwards of twenty grams per serve, so certainly it's not
Speaker 1: a high protein product. It's not low in fat. It's
Speaker 1: six point three grams of fat per hundred and four
Speaker 1: point one gram saturated, so not a low fat product,
Speaker 1: not being marketed as such. I believe there's also a
Speaker 1: ninety seven percent fat free variety or used to be
Speaker 1: of this brand, and that's because, of course it is
Speaker 1: the creamy added and there's certainly a group of these
Speaker 1: yogurts which are really marketed on being thick and creamy.
Speaker 1: When you scan the ingredient list, they generally have some
Speaker 1: cream added carbohydrate in total ten point seven grams per
Speaker 1: hundred it's just ten point five grams of sugars. Now.
Speaker 1: The other thing Leland that I noticed when going through
Speaker 1: these was that there's an increasing number of yogurt brands
Speaker 1: who are really specifying whether this sugar's in the yogurt
Speaker 1: are added versus naturally occurring, which is really useful for
Speaker 1: consumers and for us in determining actually how much sugar
Speaker 1: there is that's been added compared to the naturally occurring
Speaker 1: sugar lactose which is in dairy. This has not done
Speaker 1: that for us. So this is fifteen point seven gram
Speaker 1: so just over three teaspoons per one hundred and fifty
Speaker 1: gram tub, but we can't say how much of that
Speaker 1: is added. Even though sugar is quite high in the
Speaker 1: ingredient list, not any significant amount of fiber as you
Speaker 1: would expect it's yogurt, and calcium we like in a yogurt,
Speaker 1: don't really amd because that's a really rich natural sauce.
Speaker 1: And so when we see plant based yogurts, we really
Speaker 1: like them to see you have calcium. And this has
Speaker 1: got two hundred milligrams per one hundred and fifty gram serve,
Speaker 1: so it's reasonable. Now, it tastes good. I know that
Speaker 1: if you're a yogurt lover, it's delicious. I personally don't
Speaker 1: generally recommend these full fat, creamy yogurt To me, it's
Speaker 1: more like a dessert. It's not as bad as some
Speaker 1: of the ones out there. You know, some of the
Speaker 1: ones I've been looking at have got closer to six
Speaker 1: tea spoons of sugars, which is huge for yogurt. You know,
Speaker 1: almost two breads worth of carbohydrate per serve. Now this
Speaker 1: is less than that, but still not insignificant. With three
Speaker 1: tea spoons, keeping in mind that it's recommended we have
Speaker 1: no more than five to six teaspoons of added sugar. Admittedly,
Speaker 1: this wouldn't all be added, but I would estimate at
Speaker 1: least sort of two teaspoons probably is so yeah, to me, man,
Speaker 1: it's more of a dessert than a nutritious addition in
Speaker 1: the diet. Where do you sit on these four fat,
Speaker 1: creamy yogurt.
Speaker 2: Yeah, And my main clientele is working with females or
Speaker 2: fat loss, so I'm all about that volume based seeding.
Speaker 2: I'd rather than eat more for less calories. So it's
Speaker 2: definitely not something I would be recommending for the bulk
Speaker 2: of my clients just because it is higher calorie. It
Speaker 2: is as they market, thick and creamy. The mouthfeel is beautiful.
Speaker 2: I have had it before, but I don't know. I'd
Speaker 2: sort of call it halfway between yoga a dessert. I
Speaker 2: do have clients who are very like, much like, I'm
Speaker 2: a hard no on you're giving me any sort of
Speaker 2: low fat dairy whatsoever. So I'm like, cool, I'll work
Speaker 2: it in. But it doesn't leave as a whole lot
Speaker 2: of wiggle room if you're having sort of one of
Speaker 2: these every single day, or a couple of times a
Speaker 2: day as well, if you're adding it onto your breakfast
Speaker 2: and you're having it with a bit of a snack
Speaker 2: as well, because it sort of is, you know, twenty
Speaker 2: thirty sometimes even forty percent depending on the brand, more
Speaker 2: calories than if you were to get sort of a
Speaker 2: lower fat variety as well. So not only is it
Speaker 2: a bit high fat, that actually adding the extra sugar,
Speaker 2: So you're kind of getting the double whammy in this one.
Speaker 2: But it is a nice product, you know, it's Aussie made.
Speaker 2: The thing I will point out that is that a
Speaker 2: lot of yogurts these days will add in live yogurt
Speaker 2: cultures to be like the natural Greek style yogurt's, like
Speaker 2: the good quality ones that actually positively impact your gut health.
Speaker 2: But unless they're really specifying how much, I just kind
Speaker 2: of glaze over it. And I had a look on
Speaker 2: the Dairy Farmer's website and I was disappointed to note
Speaker 2: that they don't really mention at all. They just say
Speaker 2: the addition of live yogurt cultures. So I really don't
Speaker 2: think that it adds any real positive, you know, clinical
Speaker 2: impact compared to the other two that we're going to
Speaker 2: mention today. Susy actually specify the amount. So I wouldn't
Speaker 2: be buying this if I was looking for something to
Speaker 2: positively add some probotics into my diet or to positively
Speaker 2: really impact my gut health. This is something that I
Speaker 2: would be purely buying ay because it's Ossie made, it's
Speaker 2: a nice it's nice tasting, it's got a great texture,
Speaker 2: or just because I really quite enjoyed this brand. I
Speaker 2: don't see there being many sort of health benefits from
Speaker 2: buying this besides the amount of calcium, which you're going
Speaker 2: to get pretty much in every yoga brand anyway, So
Speaker 2: there're are on a whole lot of I guess health
Speaker 2: reasons I would buy this, but I do admit it
Speaker 2: does taste good and there is a beautiful mouthfeel with it,
Speaker 2: So I'm sort of I don't know, five six out
Speaker 2: of ten, I guess.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I agree one hundred percent. But that leads on
Speaker 1: to the next one I've chosen. Now. I wanted to
Speaker 1: include a jaw in a product because Gwener is such
Speaker 1: an amazing Australian company who have been producing great quality,
Speaker 1: delicious yogurt. Whenever I put a post up on yogurt
Speaker 1: on any of my social media, people always love Gawener
Speaker 1: and I think there's a nostalgia where that it tastes
Speaker 1: good and that sort of pot set model that they've
Speaker 1: always so I wanted to include one. Now they've got
Speaker 1: a really wide range and there's sort of Greek and
Speaker 1: then there's natural pot sets. So I tried to just
Speaker 1: pick one along the same lines, which was flavored. And
Speaker 1: we take a look at the nutritionals again per hundred
Speaker 1: we're coming in again one just over one hundred calories
Speaker 1: per hundred four grams of protein, so it's not a
Speaker 1: high protein product, similar using full fat milk. Actually, I'll
Speaker 1: go to the ingredients person and come back to that.
Speaker 1: So first pastors whole milk, cream, sugar, strawberry period coming
Speaker 1: in at just three percent compared to I think seven
Speaker 1: was for the dairy Farmer's product Natural Flavor, Life, probiotic cultures,
Speaker 1: and as LeAnn said, it specifies the amount, so it's
Speaker 1: a very very clean ingredient list. And what I noticed
Speaker 1: from looking at their website is that they're really going
Speaker 1: for that whole natural feel in the brand. In general,
Speaker 1: it's been a shift. I think in the old days
Speaker 1: there used to be a lot more lower fat products.
Speaker 1: I think they're really shifted away and come back to
Speaker 1: that real natural whole yogurt. So, as I said, the
Speaker 1: total fat is eight point nine, not a low fat
Speaker 1: product similar to the dairy Farmers using again cream and
Speaker 1: whole milk, six percent saturated fat, eight point six grams
Speaker 1: of carbohydrate, eight point three grams of sugars. They're listing
Speaker 1: a servers just one hundred meal. These do come in
Speaker 1: larger pots, so I should have said from the start
Speaker 1: this is one ki low and it's retailing for seven
Speaker 1: ninety five at Coals. So they don't have the individuals
Speaker 1: as they used to have a few, but they're not
Speaker 1: as freely available. It's certainly looking at sort of larger purchases,
Speaker 1: so I guess they're targeting people who like to add
Speaker 1: a big dollop of this kind of product to their
Speaker 1: museli in the morning, and hence they're looking for that mouthfeel.
Speaker 1: It's kind of that real wholesome, earthy vibe of the brand. No,
Speaker 1: as you would expect, minimal dietary fiber. The calcium is
Speaker 1: actually quite low, which I found interestingly, and at ninety three,
Speaker 1: which is half what we found in the dairy farmer's product.
Speaker 1: And I can't even consider really why that would be
Speaker 1: the case, because if it's all dairy, there wasn't calcium
Speaker 1: added on the dairy farmers, so I'm not quite sure.
Speaker 1: The calcium is relatively low on the product. So, as
Speaker 1: I said, I wanted to highlight because it's an amazing
Speaker 1: Australian brand. They've got an incredible range. You know, certainly
Speaker 1: when I'm cooking, I'll often turned to their Greek style
Speaker 1: slash natural yogurt pots because it's a beautiful product. But
Speaker 1: and you know, if I was comparing the Dairy Farmers
Speaker 1: to this, I'd probably say this is you know, it's
Speaker 1: difficult to say. It's got slightly less sugar, but it's
Speaker 1: got a better probietic ratio. But then the strawberry puree
Speaker 1: is much lower. You know, there's pros and cons basically,
Speaker 1: but I think in terms of an ethos for a company,
Speaker 1: it's a really good brand. And you know, probably if
Speaker 1: I was being honest, I would say steer towards the
Speaker 1: planar varieties of their yogurt, so the plain natural pot
Speaker 1: set or the Greek rather than this fruit variety. But
Speaker 1: you know, it's a they're nice Australian products in general.
Speaker 2: I'm just having to look at the Dairy Farmer's label.
Speaker 2: I think the reason that calcium is higher is because
Speaker 2: I have milk and then milk solids, and they also
Speaker 2: add in milk minerals, which that's why I'm assuming calcium
Speaker 2: is higher versus the Yanna label. I do like the
Speaker 2: Aner brand, and I think it's worth noting that it
Speaker 2: is a traditional Greek yogurt. We've talked about on the
Speaker 2: podcast before that Greek style is not Greek yogurt, so
Speaker 2: they actually specify there's more than one billion probotics in
Speaker 2: this in this yogurt here, so we've got the Acidophilus
Speaker 2: and the Bifferbacterum and the lacto bacillus as well, So
Speaker 2: it's got the good quality probotics which we know are
Speaker 2: researched and studied. But what we also do know about
Speaker 2: probotics is that we actually want a specific strain for
Speaker 2: a specific medical condition and a specific amount. So although
Speaker 2: an addition of probotics is great, particularly from food based,
Speaker 2: if we were looking more towards a supplement for a
Speaker 2: particular medical condition, we'd probably want a little bit more
Speaker 2: of a really specific strain. So I think that this
Speaker 2: is great in terms of a whole food product. I
Speaker 2: would definitely be using something like this if I wanted
Speaker 2: a traditional Greek yogurt. As you said, it does have
Speaker 2: a very clean ingredient list. However, clean doesn't mean healthy,
Speaker 2: like they've got the addition of cream and the addition
Speaker 2: of sugar, So I personally wouldn't be recommending this. I
Speaker 2: definitely do recommend your own as a brand, but not
Speaker 2: this one for my clients, because, as I said ninety,
Speaker 2: i'd say eight percent of my clients they're aiming for
Speaker 2: fat loss, and I'm not going to recommend a yogat
Speaker 2: that has additions of cream and additions of sugar, not
Speaker 2: for something that's eaten on a regular basis. And most
Speaker 2: of my clients, if they choose to consume dereit, they'll
Speaker 2: be having something like a yoga daily. So I really
Speaker 2: like it for a particular type of person, and I
Speaker 2: think you really, you know, if you're not really a
Speaker 2: yogic person and you love that mouthfeel, I think this
Speaker 2: is definitely a good one. But like you, I'd be
Speaker 2: going for something a little bit lower in sugar. But
Speaker 2: I do like the addition of the probotics in there,
Speaker 2: and I do like that as an Aussie company as well.
Speaker 1: I think you make a really good point, Leanne in
Speaker 1: saying that just because it looks incredibly healthy in terms
Speaker 1: of the branding and the company. You're right, it's still
Speaker 1: got cream and sugar added. It doesn't change that fact.
Speaker 1: But what I will say, like you, there is some
Speaker 1: fantastic products in their range, and in particular I love
Speaker 1: their kids pouches which don't contain any added sugars and
Speaker 1: they do specify that on the label. So hopefully what
Speaker 1: our yogurt manufacturers will hear from podcasts like this is
Speaker 1: we would love to see the relative amount of added
Speaker 1: versus naturally occurring sugars. That will really help us in
Speaker 1: our recommendations. And as I said, I love the brand,
Speaker 1: I love the pot set natural. I use it all
Speaker 1: the time and cooking, but yeah, I wouldn't go for
Speaker 1: this sort of sweetened one probably the only time I
Speaker 1: would perhaps use itly, add if if I had a
Speaker 1: client who was loving smoothies and we're using that to
Speaker 1: sort of get the sweetness without adding too much extra
Speaker 1: added sugar with a bit of yogurt, perhaps, but you
Speaker 1: know I wouldn't you know, it wouldn't be my general
Speaker 1: go to in this sort of category of a fruit
Speaker 1: based snack type yogurt.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and if I wanted like a sweet dessert, I
Speaker 2: would probably use something like a sweetened yogurt as a
Speaker 2: dessert option. I think that would be really lovely. But
Speaker 2: I just will make a point with the sugars. If
Speaker 2: you're then adding this with a sweetened musically and some
Speaker 2: honey or and some maple syrup on top, the addition
Speaker 2: of sugar to yogat then becomes a little bit of
Speaker 2: an issue versus if this is what you're using with
Speaker 2: some plain rolled oats and you know, some healthy fats
Speaker 2: like nuts and some seeds and that's it. But I
Speaker 2: don't really have a problem with the addition of sugar
Speaker 2: in it. So I think it really is a balance
Speaker 2: of what else you're doing in the day should be
Speaker 2: dependent on the type of yogurt that you choose and
Speaker 2: if it has additional sugars or not.
Speaker 1: True good point, all right, Well, the final one I've
Speaker 1: chosen ly am is the Activa low fat berries yogurt.
Speaker 1: Now this again comes in a larger tub as well,
Speaker 1: but this comes in a four pack four times one
Speaker 1: hundred and twenty five grams, and that was retailing for
Speaker 1: three dollars fifty so you know, at a reasonable price
Speaker 1: point for people. So these are the smaller tubs. So
Speaker 1: we look at the ingredients, whole milk seven point four
Speaker 1: percent fruit, which is, as we've seen, compared to the
Speaker 1: yauner products, reasonably high milk solids, and you're absolutely right,
Speaker 1: that's why the calcium would be higher. So that's a
Speaker 1: good pickup. There is a thickener in there, flavor stabilizes,
Speaker 1: and certainly that's what y'aonna market on the fact that
Speaker 1: their products don't contain a number of those thickness and
Speaker 1: additives compared to some of the yogurts, natural flavor, some
Speaker 1: lactic acid cultures and at the end some black carrot
Speaker 1: and black currant concentrates, so that's to give it the
Speaker 1: color as well, rather than using an actual color, some
Speaker 1: extra calcium adam and some stevia, which is interesting because
Speaker 1: that is a sweetener, a natural sweetener. So here the
Speaker 1: way they're achieving a product that doesn't contain any added sugar,
Speaker 1: they're using fruit in reasonably highmounts and then some stevia
Speaker 1: to sweeten it up naturally. So it's a really interesting
Speaker 1: formulation and from memory, this was one of the first
Speaker 1: sweet yogurts on the market that we're using that mix
Speaker 1: of a bit more fruit and a sweetener, but a
Speaker 1: natural one, because back in the eighties and nineties we
Speaker 1: had quite a lot of diet yogurts which use artificial sweetness,
Speaker 1: and there's still a few out there actually, So per
Speaker 1: serve per one hundred or I'll do one hundred gram,
Speaker 1: so it's shy of one hundred calories. So what's that
Speaker 1: coming in? About eighty eighty calories in one hundred grams
Speaker 1: or just about one hundred calories per tub. In one
Speaker 1: hundred and twenty five serve. You're getting six point one
Speaker 1: grams of protein, which is quite high, or four point
Speaker 1: nine in the one hundred. Total fat three points even
Speaker 1: saturated fat two point five. So that's why they're achieving
Speaker 1: relatively low fat by using not as much. Well, they're
Speaker 1: not adding cream to it. Total carbohydrate is relatively low
Speaker 1: six point three per hundred, seven point nine per one
Speaker 1: fifty tub, and five point four sugars per hundred and
Speaker 1: six point eight. Now, as I said, keep in mind,
Speaker 1: this is a product that markets on no added sugar,
Speaker 1: So these are the naturally occurring sugars coming from the
Speaker 1: milk and also the fruit and the calcium is big
Speaker 1: for a small tubbly an. It's two hundred milligrams because
Speaker 1: they have added a little bit in and concentrated those
Speaker 1: milk solids up. So it's one of my go tos
Speaker 1: if I'm honest. I like the serving size for people
Speaker 1: who like fruit yogurt and in particularly and for my
Speaker 1: clients who don't like protein yogurts, because protein yogat is
Speaker 1: a different category in itself, and we will review that
Speaker 1: in future episodes. But it's a very specific taste and
Speaker 1: it's really high in protein. Like I'm talking sixteen twenty grams.
Speaker 1: That's a lot in a snack food, for example. So
Speaker 1: I really I like this product. I use it. I
Speaker 1: like the serving stile. My feedback is it tastes good
Speaker 1: even though it's got some sweetness through it, and it
Speaker 1: really again markets on having some evidence behind the gut
Speaker 1: health related benefits for people who have irritable bout. I
Speaker 1: think it's true tubs that serves for days related to
Speaker 1: reduce bloating and feelings of abdominal discomfort, which is quite
Speaker 1: a lot, but still that the calories are quite low,
Speaker 1: so it fits I guess if you had it for
Speaker 1: breakfast or in a smoothie and then as a snack.
Speaker 1: But yeah, I like it. I recommend it. I think
Speaker 1: it's a good brand, and there's some evidence behind it.
Speaker 1: When it comes to the digestive health benefits I do too.
Speaker 2: On full discloser, I'd say probably about a year ago,
Speaker 2: I did work with Activy on Instagram around doing a
Speaker 2: few posts to support gut health months. I'm not working
Speaker 2: with them anymore, but I have previously. But I really
Speaker 2: do like this brand. I've used it, I've had it.
Speaker 2: I recommend it for my clients well before I work
Speaker 2: with them, and you know I still do now, and
Speaker 2: I'll tell you why. For a few reasons.
Speaker 1: I like that the.
Speaker 2: Tubs of portion size. As you said, there is actually
Speaker 2: some good quality research around two tubes a day reducing
Speaker 2: what they call digestive discomfort, so bloating sluggishness, and that feel.
Speaker 2: It adds lactase in there, so they don't market it
Speaker 2: as low lactose, but a lot of my clients who
Speaker 2: actually have a little bit of it, like a sensitive tummy,
Speaker 2: can actually tolerate it because of the addition of the
Speaker 2: lactase enzyme. I do like that it's a natural sweetener
Speaker 2: base with the stevia, and I do like that they
Speaker 2: actually have fortified with a little bit more calcium, because,
Speaker 2: as we know, a lot of you know, listeners and
Speaker 2: our clients don't actually drink a lot of milk or
Speaker 2: like milk in their coffees. A lot of people are
Speaker 2: going almond milk, oat milks very trendy lately, so we're
Speaker 2: not getting a whole lot of calcium in through our milks.
Speaker 2: So I think a little bit extra in the addition
Speaker 2: of cheese and yoga each day is actually really important,
Speaker 2: particularly you know, as we get a little bit older
Speaker 2: as well, or women you know, going through sort of
Speaker 2: pregnancy and breastfeeding as well. So I like it for
Speaker 2: many reasons, and I think it tastes really nice as well.
Speaker 2: Admittedly I wouldn't say it has the same mouth feel
Speaker 2: as the Dairy Farmers. That's definitely my pick today if
Speaker 2: you're looking for a rich and creamy yogurt, but this one,
Speaker 2: for me ticks pretty much all of the boxes. And
Speaker 2: in terms of the probotics, I've just looked up on
Speaker 2: the website and it has four point four billion probotics
Speaker 2: per serve, so really something that we're marketing as a
Speaker 2: probotic yogurt, not just like the first one. The dairy
Speaker 2: farmers Ones who said addition of live cultures, the middle
Speaker 2: one was a true Greek yogurt with over one billion,
Speaker 2: and the Activia is a true probotic with over four
Speaker 2: point four billion per small tub. So the goal is
Speaker 2: to get two tubs a day for digestive ease, and
Speaker 2: so you know, you're getting close to nine billion active
Speaker 2: bacteria per day. So that, you know, is my pick.
Speaker 2: They are a little bit more expensive, but they do
Speaker 2: go on sal quite regularly, so I sort of snapped
Speaker 2: two tubs, you know, two four packs up at the
