Just FYI, Fage 0% fat free Greek yogurt has 5 gr of carbs, 0 sugar, 18 gr protein. I read somewhere (can’t remember where) that the Greek yogurt has higher protein, and probiotics are breaking down the sugar in half, so only 2.5 gr of net carbs. So Greek yogurt for the win!!
I’ve been indulging in daily Greek yogurt with fruits for a few months and not losing weight. This past week and a half, no yogurt. I did have strawberries last Saturday and gained 2 pounds the next day. So no fruit since last Saturday and I lost 2 pounds.
I wasn’t sure which was the culprit. I’m thinking fruit. I’m going to eat yogurt tomorrow and see what happens.
I will be interested in buying the dual ketone/glucose meter to see what the heck is going on with my blood sugar. I’m guessing I’m insulin resistant, hence not losing weight and sometimes gaining. My endocrinologist has told me for years that I’m prediabetic and I thought she is exaggerating…I guess not!!!π°
Keto works but honestly I felt so bad from the beginning. I then tried the Agoge diet plan and it also worked, but I did not feel bad at all, so I am sticking with the Agoge diet.
Thanks for doing this test. I love this yogurt from Sam’s. A Youtube competitor with an "app" that you scan the barcodes indicated that it is not "approved" by him which I find interesting since this yogurt has only one ingredient and no added sugar.
I looks like you had an insulin response. Insulin dropped your glucose and your ketones. So interesting. I think I will avoid it. Thanks for the video Nicole!
Although it dropped your ketones you were still in decent level of ketosis. Also worth noting that usually we don’t eat products in isolation so hard to say how it’ll play with other ingredients.
Thank you so much for testing these products and sharing with us Nicole ππ I was just wondering if you had put the nut butter in with the yogurt would it of put your ketones up with the protein and fat π€π₯°π
A couple months ago I found the big tubs of Two Good Yogurt in Vanilla and Plain at Winn Dixie. I was happy to find them and didn’t even know that Two Good had a plain option! The weird thing was that the macros were different for the serving sizes, so for some reason the big tubs must have different serving sizes than the single serve yogurts.
Haven’t used my coach yet. I wonder if I can return it and get the new one coming out in a couple weeks? Gonna have to contact them.
Always get full fat Greek yogurt!!
I ate Fage full fat plain yogurt a couple days as an after supper snack. I ate about 1/2 cup. It knocked me right out of ketosis! Down to 0.2! Two days of not eating the yogurt and my ketones are up to 0.7
There is some controversy on how much sugar there really is in plain yogurt because no one really knows how much the bacteria is using. The sugar / carb could potentially be significantly lower than whatβs on the label due to bacterial utilization.
I would also maybe retest the yogurt on a day where your ketones are more normal for you, the test couldβve been skewed because your ketones started unusually high for you. You may also want to try a full fat version.
I just had the Duncan Hines Birthday Cake & the Brownie (made both but had half of each and my husband had the other 2 half’s) since it was my daughter’s 3rd birthday. They were delicious!!! Love to know how they effect you though.
I buy carbmaster vanilla it has 5 g carbs 1g sugar and only 1,5 g of fat its very good and think that would be the winner out of all for $2,89 per 3 pounds.
Please let me know what you all think?
Do your fingers get sore from all this testing? I had gestational diabetes the last few months of pregnancy with my son and had to check 3 times a day and my fingertips got so sore!
Something I notice is that having couple carbs snack in a day won’t take you straight out of keto but if you continue for two three days good bye to keto!
As soon as I saw it was a nonfat yogurt I thought uh oh. Yeah that’s why I never get nonfat or lowfat anything, it’s always going to be higher in sugar.
Keto should not be followed by healthy people, and there must be medical supervision. If you want to get rid of fat or cellulite then definitely try the Agoge diet, it worked wonders for me..
For keto peeps who have a Aldi & tight budget. There is a big 32 oz. Plain whole milk full fat greek yogurt 3/4 c. That is yummy. 4 carbs, 9 fat. It is the Aldi Friendly Farms brand. It says 5 serv per whole container but I try to stretch it to 6 or 7. Hth
Yea you may want to check on that that is not the yogurt a drop like that does not seem to normal but I eat that yogurt my doctor said you check 30 hour then 2 hour I am pre diabetic and numbers did not do that I be concerned if even seen drop like that π
There’s an insulin food index scale that is more useful than glycemic scale for foods. Basically, it shows foods without fat will affect your insulin even if it doesn’t show in your blood sugar. Higher insulin will kick you out of ketosis and cause the blood sugar crash.
Keto is not worth it imo. It’s unhealthy and hard to follow. I recommend the *Agoge diet* because it is personalized and diverse and most importantly worked great for me.
Hey there Nicole. Was wondering if I think it was a video you had have you tried the kiss my keto bars? I have some and I think they are affecting me. With bloating and gas. I have read reviews on them and it has affected some others so Iβm really wondering if it is those bars affecting me.
I’ve been on the fence to get the KetoCoach, due to new dual one coming out, thank you for the heads up! Excited to see the results of the TWO GOOD yogurt. I just stocked up at my Raley’s today, they are on sale for $1!!! And not even close to expiration date! LOVE with the PK nut butters, been putting in the freezer for a little bit after add the nut butters and they are like a frozen yogurt treat! Gotta get some of the granola ya keep raving about too. So, there is some info out there about yogurt carbs actually being 1/2 the value as long as live cultures in the yogurt because the bacteria will actually consume/use the sugar in the process. Believe it’s from Dr. Phinney?? Blessings & KETO-On… be it clean, lazy or dirty!
I just got one of those Duncan Hines keto mug cakes from Walmart the other day along with the Birch Benders keto mug cake. Can’t wait to see your test results. I am so bummed used to be able to get the YQ plain greek yogurt in a large container, now it is no longer available! Is there some kind of keto friendly greek yogurt conspiracy? Even my Walmart does not carry any of the keto friendly yogurts.π«π€£
Thank you for doing these tests. π
Can you try magic spoon cereal?
Nicole, Sam’s Club has their own version of Sparkling Ice! Can you test/review that??
Need to do a built bar and some wine keto kicker PLEASE!
β₯οΈ you! Keep up the content!

Low fat is bad I wish they only sold full fat yogurt

Two hours mark is the max of blood sugar rise, unless pregnant then you do 1 hour.
I looks like you had an insulin response. Insulin dropped your glucose and your ketones. So interesting. I think I will avoid it. Thanks for the video Nicole!
Ooh! Keto mug cake! Canβt wait!
Can’t wait to see what 2 good and yq show. It was a big drop hmmmm π€π€π€π€
Although it dropped your ketones you were still in decent level of ketosis. Also worth noting that usually we don’t eat products in isolation so hard to say how it’ll play with other ingredients.

Keto made me so sick. I lost a ton of hair in a month’s time.

Why would you get non-fat on keto try full fat.
I buy carbmaster vanilla it has 5 g carbs 1g sugar and only 1,5 g of fat its very good and think that would be the winner out of all for $2,89 per 3 pounds.
Please let me know what you all think?
Yay!!! So I’ll wait for the dual monitor π₯³π₯³π₯³π₯³

You should avoid low fat anyways. It’s usually got extras in it for flavor
Edit
Oooh non fat is even worse
Amazing research
HeadsUpHealth.com/ will help you track this better over time and help you see how your health responds to food, keto, fitness etc… Pretty cool ..
How does it respond when you eat the other yogurt you normally eat? Wish you had shown that for the sake of scientific testing transparency. π
As soon as I saw it was a nonfat yogurt I thought uh oh. Yeah that’s why I never get nonfat or lowfat anything, it’s always going to be higher in sugar.
Keto should not be followed by healthy people, and there must be medical supervision. If you want to get rid of fat or cellulite then definitely try the Agoge diet, it worked wonders for me..
If your diabetic you check your glucose at 2 hours.
have you ever tried making your own full fat yogurt in the instapot? how would that compare?
Iβm curious to know why you retested after 3 hours, instead of the normal 2hr Post Prandial testing? Great video, as usual.

Why are you buying non-fat anything? That your problem. I canβt believe these low-fat foods are still being made. Itβs a real shame.
Yea you may want to check on that that is not the yogurt a drop like that does not seem to normal but I eat that yogurt my doctor said you check 30 hour then 2 hour I am pre diabetic and numbers did not do that I be concerned if even seen drop like that π
Awesome! Iβve had this in my fridge!
Iβm glad youβre willing to test yourself. Sticking myself all the time still scares me. π¬π±

Would be better with the fatty yogurt
Try CarbQuick π
