Short Answer:<\/strong><\/h3>\n

No, yogurt is not Paleo but..
\n\"is<\/p>\n

Yogurt is Healthy Though!<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Dairy may not have a place in the Paleo diet because it is unnatural for human to consume milk<\/a> coming from animals like cows, sheep and goats. Dairy consumption has proven association with many diseases like diabetes, heart diseases and cancer. Majority of the population are somewhat allergic to dairy products or lactose intolerant causing bloating and diarrhea.<\/p>\n

Yogurt, being a dairy, may not be considered Paleo but has something good to offer to the body. \u00a0Yogurt is a fermented dairy product made from bacterial fermentation of milk converting lactose to lactic acid and has been used for ages as part of one\u2019s diet because of its probiotic content. \u00a0It has a tangy taste, creamy taste and usually white in color.<\/p>\n

Yogurt is rich in calcium, vitamin D, protein and probiotics. It introduces beneficial bacteria that are healthy for the gut and helps digest food. During the fermentation process of yogurt making, most of the sugars and casein protein it contains are consumed so it may be a good alternative for those people who are lactose intolerant but may not also be enough for others who are very sensitive.<\/p>\n

The Take Away..<\/strong><\/h3>\n

For strict Paleo followers, although yogurt may offer health benefits, it is still not Paleo because of its dairy nature.\u00a0 Most yogurts undergo too many processes and have additives like sugar<\/a>, thickeners, emulsifiers and stabilizers that may increase the risk of obesity.<\/p>\n

But if you are someone who is not lactose intolerant and decide to consume dairy, your best option would be raw, pasture-raised, grass \u2013fed, full fat yogurt or make your own yogurt using coconut milk instead!<\/p>\n

What Experts Say About Yogurt… Is It Paleo?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

\u201cShortly after the glycemic index was developed in the early 1980\u2019s, it was discovered that milk, yogurt and most dairy foods had low glycemic responses.\u201d \u2013 Dr. Loren Cordain<\/a><\/p>\n
