Is frozen yogurt bad for you?

Frozen yogurt has some positive health attributes, but the amount and manner in which a person consumes it impacts its health value. Relative to ice cream, frozen yogurt typically has fewer calories and much less fat content. However, people sometimes each too much and add high-calorie toppings.

Fresh fruits, granola and nuts are among the most beneficial toppings to add to frozen yogurt to get antioxidants, fiber and protein, according to SFGate. Minimizing serving sizes to 4 or 5 ounces limits calorie intake, reports Glamour. Artificial sweeteners in no- or low-sugar options can actually enhance a person's craving. Dessert toppings significantly increase calories.
