You may have heard that one of the reasons that regular yogurt is so good for you is because it contains live cultures which have numerous health benefits and are especially good for the immune system. But what about frozen yogurt? The answer is that some do, but only those that haven't been heat treated. Some yogurts are heat treated to increase shelf life and this destroys the live cultures. Although one might think that the freezing process also kills the live cultures, it actually only makes them dormant and the heat from our bodies will make them active again. To make sure that a brand of frozen yogurt contains live cultures, look for the NYA Live & Active Cultures seal on the container.
