Most of the dairy products, including yogurt are known to have low glycemic index. As such, they are great for those who have been diagnosed with diabetes. However, in order to get the most out of your yogurt consumption, it is important to choose the type of product that you buy. Always read the product labels and only select the type of yogurt that has live and active cultures.

It is also important that you pay close attention to its nutrient facts. Go for yogurts that have high protein but low carbohydrates.
