"FDA's Decision: Yogurt's Impact on Diabetes Risk and Blood Sugar Levels"
The FDA has approved qualified health claims allowing yogurt manufacturers to state that regular consumption of yogurt may reduce the risk of type 2 diabetes, based on limited scientific evidence. While some research supports the potential benefits of yogurt for diabetes prevention due to its probiotics and protein content, not all yogurts are ideal for maintaining steady blood glucose. It's recommended to choose unsweetened yogurt with live active cultures and high protein content, and to consider other diabetes-friendly foods such as berries, beans, and avocados as part of an anti-inflammatory diet.
