is there any benefit to plain yogurt over flavored yogurt?

[audiophyle]

does the gi value vary much between plain yogurt and flavored yogurt? I bought some plain yogurt today and it is the nastiest most disgusting crap i've ever tried to eat. worse than cottage cheese any day. If there is a significant difference between the two, than what can you do to plain yogurt to make it edible besides dropping in a ton of splenda?

flavoured stuff (sugar free) is usually sweetened with aspartame and stuuff so th GI shouldnt change

fat free flavoured yogurt, sweetened with artificial sweeteners (aspartam) is as good as plain yogurt

You can also add cinnamon and aspartam to your plain yogurt if you don't like its taste

BA,

What kind of protein do you buy? I am kind of a wimp when it comes to protein for shakes and such, so I am looking for something that tastes good!

Thanks

I use whey protein post workout and before bed i use miceller protein

at all other times i use Met Rx Protein +
it's low carb and low fat and the chocolate flavour is the most awesome supplement flavour i've ever ever tasted :thumbsup:

And the regulars know my take on protien shakes vs. real food.

Whey isolate post workout only, and real food for your other meals.
