Can you drink yoghurt if you have diabetes?
Yes, but if you have diabetes, you should choose lean yoghurts with 0 or 0,5 percent fat. In addition, many yoghurts, especially fruit yoghurts, contain added sugar, so it is better to eat natural yoghurts. Therefore, when choosing yoghurt, diabetics should carefully check the information about the amount of fat and sugar added on the product label. It is also worth remembering that milk and its products, including yoghurt, contain natural sugar (lactose), which may also increase blood glucose levels. In some people with diabetes, this increase may be significant, especially after eating these products as part of the first breakfast. For this reason, it is better to eat / drink yoghurt with later meals and choose small packages of 100-150 g.
