People trying to lose weight to improve their cardiovascular health need not avoid dairy products, a new study finds [1].Good luck.
As reported by heartwire , a recent study has shown that replacing carbohydrates with protein from soy or milk can reduce systolic blood pressure (BP). On the other hand, critics of the US Department of Agriculture's (USDA) "food pyramid" guidelines point out that there is no scientific basis for insisting on meat or dairy groups in dietary guidance when meat, dairy products, and eggs are the only sources of cholesterol in a diet.
A new study, presented as a poster by lead author Dr Bruce Bailey (Brigham Young University, Provo, UT) here at Obesity 2011, suggests that dairy consumption within a weight-maintenance diet does not have any impact on important cardiovascular risk factors.
Still think they have any idea what they are talking about?
