Summary:
- A study conducted by researchers at Mass General Brigham found that eating yogurt regularly over time can help prevent the development of colon cancer.
- The study analyzed data from over 130,000 participants and found that those who consumed at least two servings of yogurt per week had a 19% lower risk of developing colon cancer compared to those who did not consume yogurt.
