How do you pack so much protein into Chobani Greek Yogurt?
We use an authentic, family recipe, resulting in the jaw-dropping 14-18g of protein you’ll find in every 6oz cup of Chobani. But that’s not the whole story. We strain Chobani, which makes it creamy by removing the excess liquid from our yogurt. This liquid consists of water and whey. Whey is naturally found in milk and contains several nutrients including whey protein. Our proprietary straining process allows us to separate and remove only the liquid portion of the whey, leaving the whey protein. We do this because our bodies need 20 different types of amino acids for proper growth and muscle development, but we can only make 11 of these. The remaining nine, called essential amino acids, must come from dietary sources like whey protein, which contains all nine essential amino acids. In fact, whey protein contains more essential amino acids than any other type of protein; Chobani’s high whey protein content makes is a perfect pre- or post-workout fuel.
