Many are the ones who in recent years have abandoned the traditional summer dessert, ice cream, for a much more promising and healthier: iced yogurt.
But don't rush. Maybe that's not the case. Unlike classic yogurt, this iced dessert contains a high amount of sugar.
"The fact that the name contains the word 'yogurt' does not guarantee what you have in your cup," says David Katz, founder of the Center for Prevention Research at Yale University. "We're not talking about an alternative to yogurt but to ice cream," he told the Wuffington Post.
In the research conducted by the Center, he found in this dessert additives such as: gourmet gum, maltodextrin, sodium citrate, cellulose gum, phosphate dinosaur and propylene glycol monosters (ingredients that you might not want to see) where to look in the internet. Others contained coagulants, even algae. While others contained synthetic substances.
As Katz adds, "Just because we don't know something is harmful doesn't mean it's not. Often supplements are an indicator of how far a food is from its physical state.
However, one of the world's largest food companies has been advising consumers for years that "if something has more than five ingredients or you don't recognize any of them, don't consume it."
