Eggs, coffee and potatoes are among the foods health experts think get a bad rap for bad reasons.

Eggs, potatoes, coffee: These kitchen staples, among others, have gained bad reputations, nutrition experts say, but don’t necessarily deserve it. In fact, registered dietitians, doctors and nutrition professors are increasingly advising people to eat them.

Nutrition advice is ever changing, which can leave consumers uncertain about which foods are actually healthy. NBC News asked nine health experts about the foods they think have been wrongly villainized. Here are some of the items they listed and the benefits people may miss out on if they forgo them entirely.

    Around my area, I have stony field organic probiotic yogurt. It contains whole milk, culture, vitamin d, and pectin, and nothing else. (Idgaf about organic, but I wanted full fat probiotic, zero sugar. It’s not cheap, but my instant pot has a yogurt setting so I can just make more.)

    That brand may not be available by you, but if you look for a multi-probiotic yogurt (multiple strains; this variety has 6), you’ll be more likely to find something good, in my experience.
