Four pots of yoghurt a week 'protects against diabetes'

[Northerner]

A small pot of yoghurt every other day reduces the risk of getting type 2 diabetes by more than a quarter, new research suggests.

Consuming an average of four and a half 125g pots of yoghurt per week appears to cut the risk of developing the disease by 28 per cent, Cambridge University scientists found.

Higher consumption of other low-fat fermented dairy products, such as fromage frais and cottage cheeese also seems to protect against the disease, according to the study of more than 4,000 people.

I do wish they would stop it with these over-simplistic headlines! 🙄

I'll get my pots of cinnamon flavoured yoghurt out then! 🙄

Drivvel, drivvel and yet more drivvel!

The simple truth is that a balanced diet is what everyone needs (assuming all is well). A little bit of this, a little bit of that plus a little bit of what you fancy.
