Ice cream is a delicious treat that everyone can enjoy. With plenty of flavors and toppings to choose from, there is no shortage of customization options to enhance the ice cream eating experience.

The primary ingredients for ice cream are milk and cream. Sugar is also a component, though, as a replacement, sweeteners can be used as well. One thing to watch out for is the cream, as it is high in saturated fats. As a result, many ice cream brands offer low-fat or zero-fat ice cream options.

Fruits are a popular addition to ice cream. Other additions include cookies and choco chips. The latter option increase the fat and calorie content, so its best to stick with fruits.

Scientists are working on creating a healthier ice cream, too. By adding antioxidants and probiotics, they hope to elevate ice cream into a food that offers additional health benefits aside from basic nutrition.

There are other frozen desserts available, ones that are healthier than ice cream. Frozen yogurt is a good choice as it is a good source of probiotics (or beneficial bacteria) that aids in digestion. Sorbet is also a good choice (it contains no dairy products).
