Could yogurt be the signature of a healthy diet?


● Its own nutritional content

● Its impact on concomitant and/or subsequent food intake

● Its relationship with healthy behaviors

(D’Addezio L et al. Med J Nutr Metab 2015; 8: 119-129)

Conclusions


Yogurt consumers have

● Better nutritional intakes

● Healthier dietary patterns

Active and low sedentary children and adolescents consume

more yogurt, specially boys

Yogurt consumption can be viewed as a signature of a

healthy diet and lifestyle
