Epigamia Greek Yoghurt- the delicious way to lose weight.

 Everywhere around me are advertisements of miracle products claiming to help people lose the stubborn inches off their bodies . While it’s necessary to run, Lift and push- the most crucial element of weight loss is diet. It’s not just counting calories that matters, but also eating the kind of food that nourishes while helping keep the unwanted fat at bay. One such nutrient generally ignored is dairy and what has health journals, magazines and internet buzzing is Greek yoghurt one of its form.

What differentiates greek yoghurt from the regular kind is the preparation which involves straining of whey lending it a thicker consistency and some health benefits too. Straining whey removes some part of  lactose, fat and sugar which decreases its calorie content. For those obsessed with Protein, Greek yoghurt contains twice the amount of yoghurt than the traditional variety. Sodium content in greek yoghurt is half that of the traditional counterpart and hence makes it suitable for patients suffering from hypertension or kidney disorders.

Yoghurt not only makes for a wonderful side or dessert but is also a great breakfast option. To make our lives easier, Epigamia  launched its range of flavoured yoghurt that come with a pack of granola and even a spoon making it a healthy and viable option for breakfast on the go. For those who don’t like plain yoghurt, try Epigamia’s different flavours from mango, blueberry , strawberry to banana and vanilla- my kids just can’t help gorging on these. The yoghurt not only taste good and are a great source of nutrients they don’t add anything to the waistline either .A 90g jar of Epigamia yoghurt contains only 107 kcal and 2 g fat  since it is prepared from double toned milk. Easily available in most grocery stores this is affordable and a good source of nutrition.
