TIP OF THE DAY -- #1 WEIGHT LOSS FOOD

Health editor Janice Kerr came across an interesting study recently in the Journal of the American Medical Association. According to Harvard School of Public Health lead researcher Dariush Mozaffarian, M.D., people who ate at least one serving of yogurt a day lost almost a pound every four years. Those who skipped a serving each day gained weight.  The study was run over a twenty year period with nearly 120,000 participants.

Glad I made the right choice this morning. :^)

Wow, they found 120,000 people (or maybe just 60K) who ate yogurt every day. Amazing!

Me, too, Penelope!

Nathan, why does that surprise you? Have you ever noticed how much linear footage is devoted to yogurt in supermarkets? Yogurt sales are huge in the U.S.

And a discussion of what constitutes "Greek" yogurt will cause pounds to drop too.
