Health effects of yogurt
Yogurt has a role to play in dietary improvements in the following groups:

- Growing children: yogurt is a convenient and tasty way to help growing children meet their calcium needs
- People at risk of type 2 diabetes: 80 g of yogurt daily has been associated with 14% reduction in risk of T2D
