Carbs and Fiber in Chocolate Frozen Yogurt Food Item: Frozen yogurts, chocolate,
soft-serve Chocolate Frozen Yogurt and DietNot permitted on low carb diets, ice creams (like Chocolate Frozen Yogurt) are typically high calorie foods with no dietary fiber and not much nutrition. Very roughly, water accounts for about 60 percent of ice cream weight, protein about 4 percent, fat about 10 percent and carbohydrate (mostly sugar) about 25 percent. Because sugar is one of the major ingredients, ice cream can be high on the Glycemic Index, which means it can cause a rapid rise in blood-glucose levels, leading to excessive insulin production and a sudden drop in blood sugar. Other ice creams can be high in fats, including saturated fat. Bottom line: whether or not you are into low carb dieting, if you want to lose weight, manage your blood sugar levels and stay healthy, keep your intake of ice-cream and other sugary-carb foods to a minimum. For more details about carbs in ice cream, see below. Note: Nutritional values in some ice creams can vary, so the above carbohydrate details for Chocolate Frozen Yogurt are intended as a guideline only. |
