Almond milk yogurt more nutritious than dairy-based yogurt
Recent study comparing the nutritional profile and nutrient density of commercially available plant-based and dairy yogurts showed almond milk yogurt to be on top. The study was published in Frontiers in Nutrition on 25 May 2023.
“Plant-based yogurts overall have less total sugar, less sodium and more fiber than dairy, but they have less protein, calcium and potassium than dairy yogurt,” says lead author Astrid D’Andrea, a graduating senior whose paper was published May 25 in a special issue of the journal Frontiers in Nutrition titled Food of the Future: Meat and Dairy Alternatives. “But when looking at the overall nutrient density, comparing dairy yogurt to plant-based yogurt, with the nutrients that we looked at, almond yogurt has a significantly higher nutrient density than dairy yogurt and all other plant-based yogurts.”
