FDA Allows Yogurt Claim For Reducing Type 2 Diabetes Risk

Signage is seen outside of FDA headquarters in White Oak, Maryland

Recent findings from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) suggest that incorporating yogurt into your diet may help reduce the risk of type 2 diabetes. The FDA has approved a claim from Danone North America, the maker of popular yogurt brands, stating that regular consumption of yogurt could potentially lower the risk of developing diabetes.

The FDA's decision allows for this health claim to be featured on yogurt food labels, provided that it is not misleading to consumers and meets certain criteria. While the evidence supporting the relationship between yogurt intake and reduced diabetes risk is limited, it is deemed credible by the FDA.
