Benefits of Yogurt

Yogurt is an excellent source of protein and calcium for strong and healthy bones. Deborah Orlick Levy, a nutritionist for MomLifeTV, explains how yogurt can also help reduce your risk of diabetes. Choose low fat or plain yogurt. Most other kinds are high in sugar. Sweeten it naturally with your own fruit or berries.
