A fudge bar that comes with a boost of probiotics and only contains 80 calories per serving is a dream come true for frozen treat lovers who have some serious health goals.

Data shows that the inclusion of probiotics in a diet is linked to weight loss and a reduction in BMI. And the fact that this pop contains 6 grams of protein per serving adds a satiety factor to eating this treat too, which may ultimately help people eat less over the long term and support their weight loss goals.

If you are a lover of the old-school fudge bars, making the swap to Yasso Chocolate Fudge Bars will provide you with the same satisfying taste but with an extra boost of weight management-supporting yogurt live cultures, protein, and micronutrients like calcium and potassium.
