Benefits of Greek Yogurt
Nutrition Benefits
Greek yogurt may be known for its high protein, but that’s just part of the story. Learn all about the benefits in every serving of Oikos Triple Zero.
Cultures
Cultures are the key to turning milk into yogurt. They also do the all-important job of helping break down the lactose in milk.
Protein
Every 5.3 oz serving of Oikos Triple Zero has 15 grams of high-quality protein, which means your muscles are gonna love it. Get the details here.
Calcium
It’s a must for supporting strong bones, and you’ll find a good source of it in every 5.3-ounce serving of Oikos Triple Zero.
Lactose
Because of the way it’s strained, Greek yogurt such as Oikos Triple Zero contains less lactose, and therefore less total sugar and fewer total carbs than the base of regular yogurt.
Gluten Free
No worries here: our Greek yogurt does not contain gluten, and doesn’t come into contact with ingredients that contain gluten during the production process.
How OIKOS TRIPLE ZERO GREEK YOGURT IS MADE
Greek yogurt is special because it’s strained. Sounds simple, but that one extra step makes the difference between everyday and epic.
Step 1: Milk a Cow
We source all our milk from high quality partner farms.
Step 2: Pasteurize
Pasteurization is a standard heating process that kills undesirable bacteria to make sure milk is safe to consume.
STEP 3: Culture & Ferment
We add yogurt cultures to milk for fermentation, which helps to create that characteristic tangy flavor Greek yogurt fans know and love.
STEP 4: Strain
This is where the magic happens. We strain our Greek yogurt to remove a portion of the liquid. What’s left: an ultra-thick, ultra-creamy base that’s high in protein, versatile in recipes and basically genius on a spoon.
STEP 5: Flavor it Up
Or not. Whether you like your Greek yogurt loaded with flavor or plain is up to you. Either way, it’s Greek, and it’s good. Check out Oikos Triple Zero and Oikos Remix Greek yogurt.
