100 Dairy Calories | Healthy Eating Advice from Herbalife

Dairy foods are some of richest sources of potassium and calcium, they're fortified with vitamins A and D... but if you're not paying attention to how much fat you're taking in, you can rack up your calories pretty quickly! So let's look at what 100 calories looks like from different dairy foods.

Nonfat milk adds up to 100 calories in 9 oz. (270 ml). If you switch over to full-fat milk, you're going to get about 5.5 oz. (175 ml) for 100 calories. Four tablespoons (65 ml) of half and half adds up to 100 calories, so it can add up quickly if you put half and half in your coffee. 

If you turn to cottage cheese for your dairy fix, you'll get about a full cup (150 g) of non-fat cottage cheese at 100 calories. The full fat version will be about half a cup at 100 calories. 

Yogurt is very nutritious if you choose the right one. If you're looking at non-fat plain Greek-style yogurt for 100 calories, you can get a full cup (200 g). If you choose the sweetened yogurt with fruit at the bottom, you'll be picking up a lot of sugar, which means 100 calories is about half as much as non-fat plain Greek style yogurt.

When it comes to cheese, here's the rule of thumb: the creamier your cheese, the higher the calories per serving. If you're looking at frozen dairy desserts, pay attention because your portions will be very small for 100 calories.

Dairy foods can be very nutritious, but you need to know how to make the right choices. Just make sure to read labels carefully, and choose wisely when you go grocery shopping.
