US:Yogurt makers can claim that their products can reduce the risk of Type 2 diabetes
#1

– The FDA decision allows yogurt companies to make a “qualified health claim” that regular yogurt consumption – at least two cups or three servings per week – may lower the risk of Type 2 diabetes.

– The claim must specify that there is limited scientific evidence supporting it. The FDA said there was some evidence linking yogurt intake and reduced risk of Type 2 diabetes “irrespective of fat or sugar content.” But this finding was based on observational studies that measure associations instead of a cause-and-effect relationship between a substance and disease, it added.

As for me, it's always encouraging when foods we enjoy can have potential health benefits. Although the FDA's decision is intriguing, I think it's essential to approach it with a balanced perspective. While yogurt might offer some advantages regarding Type 2 diabetes risk reduction, it's crucial to remember that correlation doesn't always imply causation. Nonetheless, it's a positive step forward in understanding how dietary choices can impact our health. Also, have you ever explored the concept of sugar balance? It could be an interesting addition to consider alongside yogurt consumption for overall wellness.
