Strawberry and Mango flavored yogurts are a hit in the summer season. Flavored yogurt is a much better alternate to ice-creams given the rate of obesity and nutrition deficiency in children. However, if you are swapping the ice-cream with packed/store-bought flavored yogurts then mind it these packs contain oodles of refined sugar, artificial color/flavor and just traces of fruit. And, did you know that live cultures or the probiotics cannot survive in sugar. So the very purpose of consuming yogurt (a probiotic) fails when you consure commercial flavored yogurt.
