Thanks. Had heard skyr was good but wasn’t sure if it was better than full fat Greek.
One of the lowest in carbs at 3g per 100g is Fage Total 5% fat Greek yoghurt. It is not the cheapest, but is regularly reduced in Sainsburys and Tesco and it is IMO delicious. I add a generous dsp Erythritol, but artificial sweeteners are not everyone's choice. Low fat products will always be higher in carbs than full-fat ones. It is like a see-saw. But, as several have already said, ALWAYS LOOK AT THE LABEL!!!

Generally real greek yogurt is slightly lower carb than 'greek style', eg Waitrose Greek yogurt or Fage Total (5%), but there are a couple of good greek style that I've sampled recently (in case the imported stuff gets harder to find this year).
'Dorset Strained Yoghurt' is good but costs a but more,
Genuine Greek yogurt is also

How do you get the real thing and is organic better? Does anyone else worry about their gut microbiome (bio active stuff???)

Hi,
I have been having Lidl Greek style yoghurt for a long time but I believe eating a lot of it causes constipation. And it seems to cause me to feel tired so I am beginning to think I am allergic to large quantities of some dairy.
