If you’ve switched to soy milk because of problems digesting cow milk—you might enjoy an added benefit besides fewer stomach troubles. New research suggests drinking several glasses of soy milk daily may be just as helpful for shedding pounds as cow milk!
Researchers from Northern Illinois State University tracked women on an eight-week, low-calorie diet. They either had three cups of fat-free milk each day or light, calcium-fortified soy milk.
The women in each group lost an average of 8.8 pounds—regardless of which milk they drank. So tip your cup and enjoy this diet-friendly drink!
