People who regularly consume Greek yogurt are less likely to develop lung cancer, specialists said in a new study published in the journal JAMA Oncology.

The study authors analyzed data from 1.4 million people in the United States, Europe, and Asia and found that eating fiber and yogurt reduced the risk of lung cancer. Citizens with the highest consumption of yogurt had a 33% lower risk of developing cancer than those who did not eat the product at all.

According to scientists, the use of two or more servings of yogurt per week helps to reduce the risk of developing adenoma in the rectum.

Besides, yogurt can normalize high blood pressure in women, and the probiotics in this product can relieve lupus symptoms. Also, yogurt can prevent heavy metal poisoning, replenish vitamin deficiencies and lose weight.
