It will depend upon what types they are, but a smoothy is probably a little healthier.



Healthier in what respect??

A low-fat yogurt would contain fewer calories and more calcium and protein than a smoothie. But look out for high-fat yogurts and those with artificial sweeteners, and if you already have a lot of dairy it's wise not to get too much.

A smoothie made with whole fruits contains far more vitamins and fibre than a yogurt. But they can be very high in calories and very sugary and acidic, which may also have a bad effect on your teeth.

They are both generally healthy products and can be incorporated into a healthy diet in moderation.



I'd say it depends on fat content. A full fat yogurt would be less healthy than a smoothie made with skim milk and ice and fruit, but a smoothie made with cream would be worse than a lowfat or nonfat yogurt.



Typically yogurts, but if you get a non sugary variety of smoothies, then they can be jsut as healthy.



I'd say yogurt, because smoothies can get really sugary. The best yogurt to get would be Activia :)
