An awful lot.
Which live yogurts do people buy please. I was getting very confused at them all l settled for Goats milk live yogurt, (hub is lactose intolerant and we get lot goats product) but this one has modified starch in but was lower carbs higher fat than for instance the yeo valley which had no modified starch but higher carbs lower fat.

Not quite in the right ball park, but I just switched to Alpro, tastes ok, I'm going to try it for a few months if an effort to improve my cholesterol.
 
I like Alpro too. Low calories, low carb and tastes nice with berries.
 
I've been using Onken Natural Yogurt for some time with my breakfast, it's very tasty and only has 3.8g of carbs per 100g weight.
 
We use Lidl natural yogurt, 80p for 4 pots, I use one pot each for smoothies just right for us, The wife also uses if instead of cream in cooking, it takes the "high fat" out of the low carbing :dead:
 
Many thanks for the replies l think somewhere the root of my confusion was reading that food should have less carbs than fat. l will look at the total/100 grams instead.
Have to say l do like the goats milk yogurt and have 50 grams a day 2.5 carbs and 1.1 fat in it.

I make my own in an Easio yogurt maker - using a small pot of Yeo Valley bio-live yogurt as a starter, with uht skimmed milk a a little dried milk powder - so I've no idea what the carb ratio is! The pot states it has 9.8g carb - but I generally reserve some of each newly-made batch as a starter if I can.

I haven't found another suitable live culture - but if anyone knows a lower carb variety I'd like to try it out!

I make my own yoghurt as well from Yeo Valley bio-live and uht in a Severin yoghurt maker and I get 7 pots.
approx 1.50 for 7 pots, I have half a pot usually at breakfast with berries and the remaining half as desert at dinner.
