Why is Greek-style natural yogurt classified as moderately processed (NOVA 3) and what additives does it contain?

The product is classified as NOVA 3 because it undergoes pasteurisation, the addition of cream and skimmed‑milk powder, and the introduction of live lactic cultures, but it contains no added emulsifiers, colourings, sweeteners or preservatives.

How does the saturated fat content in this yogurt affect a heart‑healthy diet?

Saturated fat in this yogurt is relatively high; consuming it regularly can raise LDL cholesterol, so heart‑healthy eaters should limit portions and balance it with other low‑saturated‑fat foods.

Is the milk in this yogurt a concern for lactose‑intolerant individuals?

Because the product is made from whole milk and contains milk powder, it still contains lactose; while the straining process reduces lactose compared with regular yogurt, it may still cause symptoms for those with lactose intolerance.
