Correct; also dairy products have a low glycemic index, and diets
rich in such foods tend to lower the risk of diabetes and obesity
if they are also low in fat. It is likely that a high percentage of
people who eat lots od dairy products also consume other low gycemic
index foods. The study would have been more revealing if the weight of
the participants had also been taken into consideration.
