Yogurt powder

Yoghurt powder is a dried milk product used as a commercial food ingredient. The figures here describe the powder rather than yoghurt prepared with added water. It mainly provides carbohydrate and protein, and also contains calcium. Per 100g, it provides 54g of carbohydrate, all of which is sugars, 35g of protein, 1300mg of calcium and 1.5g of salt.

Protein is needed for the growth and repair of body tissues, while calcium helps maintain bones and teeth. The sugar and salt content may be relevant to people monitoring their intake. When the powder is used in other foods, the final nutrient content depends on the amount used and the other ingredients. Full nutritional figures are in the tables below.
