First seen Dec 18, 2025 · Last updated May 16, 2026 · Updated 25 times

Summary

This study tested whether a yogurt enriched with lactoferrin, a protein found in milk, could improve iron levels in 50 women with gestational diabetes. Participants ate either the special yogurt or a regular one for a period, and researchers measured changes in their blood iron stores. The goal was to see if this simple dietary change could help manage iron status without extra supplements.
