A new book out called the Four Corners Diet by Dr. Jack Goldberg (a biochemist) states that you can subtract 1 gram carb for every ounce yogurt you eat (if the label states 14 g. then 14-8 = 6 grams carbs to count).
The doctor said he demonstrated in his own laboratory that the carbs are reduced and goes on to to explain this in his book.
I don't believe the author has any financial investments in any yogurt companies (he even gives recipes on making your own), and the coauthor of this book is Gretchen Becker, a well-respected diabetes researcher who has diabetes herself. She wrote a best selling book on type 2 diabetes a few years ago.
Personally, yogurt has never stalled me and helps me lose weight, so I don't count the full amount and do the subtraction that Dr. Goldberg recommends. What do you think?
