Your body may prioritize using the readily available carbs for energy, potentially leading to increased fat storage (lipogenesis) if you consistently exceed your caloric needs.

Expert Tips

For a creamier texture, use full-fat Greek yogurt, but be mindful of the increased calories. To prevent ice crystals, add a tablespoon of gelatin powder to the yogurt mixture before freezing. To lose weight, measure your ingredients to accurately track your calorie intake. Eyeballing can lead to overeating, even with healthy snacks.
