Why you shouldn't drain the liquid from yogurt: an expert explains

People often throw food in the trash as soon as it has lost its usual appearance. However, not all products that have changed their appearance are unfit for consumption.

For example, when liquid appears on the surface of yogurt, people don't hesitate to get rid of it. It turns out that there is no need to do so, says Karan Raj, an expert on TikTok.

According to the expert, the liquid that often forms on the surface of yogurt is very useful and has a lot of vitamins and nutrients. In particular, it contains protein, calcium, vitamin B12, and probiotics, which are so necessary for the intestines.

This mysterious liquid is actually just whey, which is known for its beneficial properties. It is formed as a result of some processes that take place during the manufacture of yogurt. The longer the yogurt stands, the more whey will be released. Raj claims that this is a completely normal and natural process.

Whey also makes yogurts more liquid, creating a familiar consistency. But it is unlikely to find whey in Greek yogurt, because by its structure, this product should be thick. Therefore, during the preparation of Greek yogurt, it is carefully filtered from whey.
