The other comments mentioned how Greek yogurt has more protein relative to normal yogurt. To add to that, dietary protein has been experimentally shown to induce a greater rise in satiety hormones like cholecystokinin (CCK), peptide YY (PYY) and glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) than carbohydrates and fats. These hormones, via different pathways, tell your brain that you’re full and suppresses your appetite (hence satiety signals).
