In recent years, these types of foods have been blamed for raising&nbsp;the risk of&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.accessdata.fda.gov\/scripts\/InteractiveNutritionFactsLabel\/saturated-fat.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">cardiovascular disease<\/a>, the leading cause of death worldwide. But now, some scientists are saying our favorite milk-based&nbsp;goods may not be as harmful&nbsp;as we think.<\/p>\n<p>In a <a href=\"https:\/\/link.springer.com\/article\/10.1007%2Fs10654-017-0243-1#Sec11\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">report<\/a> published in the <cite>European Journal of Epidemiology<\/cite>, researchers concluded that dairy products don&#8217;t increase the chances of a heart attack or a stroke. The panel analyzed 29 studies from the past 35 years involving nearly 1 million test subjects, and they couldn&#8217;t find any associations between consuming dairy (both high- and low-fat) and mortality, coronary heart disease, or cardiovascular disease.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;There\u2019s quite a widespread but mistaken belief among the public that dairy products in general can be bad for you, but that\u2019s a misconception,&#8221; researcher and Reading University food nutrition professor Ian Givens told&nbsp;<em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/society\/2017\/may\/08\/consuming-dairy-does-not-raise-risk-of-heart-attack-or-stroke-study\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">The Guardian<\/a>.<\/em>&nbsp;&#8220;While it is a widely held belief, our research shows that that\u2019s wrong.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Study co-author Julie Lovegrove tells&nbsp;<em><a href=\"http:\/\/www.newsweek.com\/cheese-heart-disease-death-low-risk-health-605780\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Newsweek<\/a>&nbsp;<\/em>that this study proves dairy &#8220;can be&nbsp;part of a healthy, balanced diet&#8221; and that more research now needs to be done to discover dairy&#8217;s impacts on health.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>This news follows other recent studies&nbsp;that link health benefits to cheese. Scientists in Ireland found that eating curds&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/developer83.wordpress-developer.us\/culturecheesemag\/cheese-bites\/cheese-doesnt-raise-cholesterol-according-new-study\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">doesn&#8217;t raise cholesterol<\/a>, while a chemical compound in aged wheels could help&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/developer83.wordpress-developer.us\/culturecheesemag\/cheese-bites\/aged-cheese-help-live-longer\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">extend longevity<\/a> and lower the risk of liver disease. While this is great news for caseophiles, it&#8217;s probably wise to enjoy cheese in moderation, at least until&nbsp;more research is conducted and health organizations start changing their guidelines on saturated fats.<\/p>\n<p><em><small>Feature Photo Credit: Tess Kelly<\/small><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cheese and other dairy products high in saturated fat may not be to blame for cardiovascular disease<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":85,"featured_media":30492,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"wprm-recipe-roundup-name":"","wprm-recipe-roundup-description":"","cybocfi_hide_featured_image":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[17],"tags":[737,15150,2087,15151,6969,2565,15159,15152,13678,4160,15153,15149,15155,15157,15161,15160,15158,13679,15154,15156],"coauthors":[940],"class_list":["post-30490","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-cheese-bites","tag-butter","tag-cardiovascular-disease","tag-cheese","tag-cholesterol","tag-cream","tag-dairy","tag-diet","tag-european-journal-of-epidemiology","tag-health","tag-healthy","tag-heart-attack","tag-heart-health","tag-ian-givens","tag-julie-lovegrove","tag-liver-disease","tag-longevity","tag-newsweek","tag-saturated-fat","tag-stroke","tag-the-guardian"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v24.4 (Yoast SEO v24.4) -
