When young women ate yogurt with cereal for breakfast, their blood sugar stayed much lower after eating than when they ate a coconut-based cereal breakfast.

See the scientific wording

In young women, consuming a breakfast of Greek yogurt with granola results in a 52% lower two-hour blood glucose incremental area under the curve compared to a breakfast of cultured coconut product with granola, suggesting that high-protein dairy-based meals may more effectively moderate postprandial glucose spikes.

  1. Study: The effects of cultured dairy and non-dairy products added to breakfast cereals on blood glucose control, satiation, satiety, and short-term food intake in young women.

    When young women ate Greek yogurt with granola instead of a coconut-based product with granola, their blood sugar stayed much lower after eating—because the yogurt had more protein, which helps slow down sugar spikes.
