Abstract
Dairy foods are heterogeneous by type, and contain various nutrients, which could be beneficial or deleterious for health. Current evidence from several meta-analyses on dairy consumption supports a neutral or moderately beneficial association with cardiometabolic disease (1–5). For example, meta-analyses of prospective cohort studies indicate that higher compared with lower yogurt consumption is inversely associated with the development of type 2 diabetes (2, 3). Similarly, higher consumption of milk and cheese is inversely associated with stroke risk (1, 6). Unfortunately, the results of many studies on dairy consumption and incident cardiometabolic diseases are derived from a single, baseline dietary intake measure. Repeated measures of dairy intake are preferred, in order to obtain more up-to-date consumption level...
Description
Funding Information: SSS-M has received unrestricted grants from the Global Dairy Platform, Dairy Research Institute, and Dairy Australia for a meta-analysis on cheese and blood lipids (2012) and a meta-analysis of dairy and mortality (2015). She received the Wiebe Visser International Dairy Nutrition Prize, and has received recent research funding (2019) for epidemiological studies on dairy products and cardiometabolic diseases from the Dutch Dairy Association and the Danish Dairy Research Foundation. IALS reports no conflicts of interest.
