How much protein is in that yoghurt?

Eating yoghurt is a great way to spread your protein intake throughout the day. We compared products to see which contains the most protein.

There’s only a little protein in coconut yoghurts. Soy yoghurts have a bit more, but dairy yoghurt has the most. Greek-style yoghurts have been strained and are the highest in protein.

Serving sizes vary so we’ve compared 130g of yoghurt (about 1/2 cup) to one size 6 egg, which contains 6.7g protein. But remember to check the serving size as you may be eating more, or less, than that.
