FitDexYogurt — whole milk: how many calories?
Yogurt — whole milk carries 61 calories per 100 grams; a typical portion (150 g) comes to 92 calories. The tables below give the same figure in cups, spoons and slices.
- Protein3.5 g
- Carbs4.7 g
- Fat3.3 g
- Fibre0.0 g
- Protein5.3 g
- Carbs7.1 g
- Fat4.9 g
- Fibre0.0 g
Where do the calories come from?
- Protein 22%
- Carbs 30%
- Fat 48%
The shares are calculated from the calorie value of the macros: protein and carbohydrate are 4 calories per gram, fat is 9. Fibre is counted inside the carbohydrate and there is no alcohol in this list, which is why the three shares always add up to one hundred percent.
What do these numbers mean on the plate?
Yogurt — whole milk carries 0.6 calories per gram: 100 calories come to 164 grams. This is the typical range of cooked home food — as the portion grows the calories grow with it, and both move at the same pace.
A typical portion is 150 g. Because tables are written per 100 grams, counting the portion as 100 grams too is a common mistake; for Yogurt — whole milk that means understating the calories by 33%.
In calories, one portion (150 g · 92 kcal) comes to: 150 g Milk — whole. Milk — whole page
One portion every day adds up to 33,398 calories a year — roughly a 4.3 kg difference. This is a linear estimate and an upper bound: as weight changes, daily needs change with it. Build your own timeline
In dairy, fat content is what varies most between two products sharing a name: the “light” version can drop to a third of the calories at the same weight.
Household measure equivalents
| Measure | Gram | Calories | Protein |
|---|---|---|---|
| Tablespoon (15 ml) | 15 g | 9 kcal | 0.5 g |
| Small glass (100 ml) | 103 g | 63 kcal | 3.6 g |
| Glass (200 ml) | 206 g | 126 kcal | 7.2 g |
| US cup (240 ml) | 247 g | 151 kcal | 8.7 g |
| Bowl (300 ml) | 309 g | 188 kcal | 10.8 g |
| 1 serving | 150 g | 92 kcal | 5.3 g |
Cup and spoon equivalents come from the food's bulk density, not from volume: a cup holds 200 millilitres, not 200 grams. Packing and how finely something is chopped move these numbers by 10-20%. Convert your own measure
How much of the daily reference intake?
| Nutrient | Daily reference | 100 g | 1 portion · 150 g |
|---|---|---|---|
| Calories | 2,000 kcal | 3% | 5% |
| Fat | 70 g | 5% | 7% |
| Carbs | 260 g | 2% | 3% |
| Protein | 50 g | 7% | 11% |
| Fibre | 25 g | 0% | 0% |
The reference values are the figures EU Regulation 1169/2011 gives for an average adult — the %RI column on labels rests on the same numbers. They are not a personal target; the fibre row is not in the regulation, the 25 grams there is EFSA's adequate intake for adults. Work out your own calorie needs
Where does it sit within its group?
It is number 2 of the 7 foods in the Breakfast and dairy group by calories per 100 grams. The group averages 196 kcal; Yogurt — whole milk is 69% below that average.

| Food | Calories | Difference | Protein |
|---|---|---|---|
| Strained yogurt — fat-freeGood swap | 89 kcal | −3 kcal | 15.3 g |
The “good swap” mark only appears when an option lowers the calories without also lowering protein and fibre per 100 calories. Unmarked rows save calories but give up nutrient density. Try it with your own portion
How long does it take to burn one portion (150 g)?
- Walking — brisk (5.6 km/h)23 min
- Running — 8 km/h (7:30 min/km)10 min
- Cycling — 16-19 km/h13 min
These minutes are the NET burn for a 70 kg body: the resting calories that would have been spent sitting on the sofa anyway are already taken out of the total. A heavier body gets the same work done in less time. Calculate with your own weight

Which claims could its label carry?
EU Regulation 1924/2006 ties every label claim to a numeric threshold. Yogurt — whole milk meets 1 of them:
- High protein23% of its calories come from protein · threshold: at least 20%
A claim on a label rests on that product's OWN laboratory analysis, whereas the numbers here come from average composition tables. The list is therefore not a permit but an estimate of which side of the threshold a product sits on. For drinks, the calorie and fat thresholds are set per 100 millilitres and are lower.

Apply these numbers to your own portion
- Cups to grams converterCups, spoons, slices, handfuls — all converted to grams and calories. The difference: every food is computed with its own density, because a cup is a volume, not a weight. The same 200 ml glass holds 6.6 g of popcorn and 282 g of honey.
- Food swap calculatorWhat do you gain by replacing something you eat with a lighter alternative at the same weight? 80 foods, computed at your own portion. The difference: it marks the swaps that cut calories without cutting protein and fibre.
- Calorie calculatorEnter your height, weight, age and activity level to see your daily calorie needs, basal metabolic rate and macro split in seconds. The same formula as the FitDex app.
- Calories burned calculatorWork out the calories you burn across 27 activities, scaled to your weight and duration. What sets it apart: it subtracts your resting burn, so you see the extra the exercise actually bought you.
The values are averages taken from standard composition tables; a 10-15% difference between two products with the same name is normal, and the cooking method can double that gap. This page is for information and is not medical advice.
