Nutritional Overview

Yougurt is a food item that can be part of a varied diet. Per 100g serving, it provides 52 kcal of energy, 3.0g of protein, 4.3g of carbohydrates, and 3.5g of fat.

It is a good source of protein, providing 3.0g per 100g (around 23% of its energy), approximately 6% of the UK Reference Nutrient Intake of 50g per day. Under UK/EU nutrition-claim rules, that meets the "high protein" threshold of at least 20% of energy from protein. Protein plays a key role in muscle repair, immune function, and keeping you feeling full for longer.

With only 2.5g of sugar per 100g, it meets the UK/EU "low sugar" nutrition-claim threshold. This makes it a suitable choice for those reducing their sugar intake as part of a balanced diet.

Each 100g serving contains 0.11g of salt, meeting the UK/EU "low salt" nutrition-claim threshold. The NHS recommends adults consume no more than 6g of salt per day, so choosing lower-salt foods like this one makes it easier to stay within that limit and supports healthy blood pressure. However Yougurt ends up on your plate, its 52 kcal per 100g still counts. Our daily food calorie calculator keeps an accurate running total of it.
