According to a study presented during the Congress of the European society of cardiology, people who regularly consume meat and dairy products, there is a lower risk of heart disease, and premature death. However, such correlation takes place only when they are fairly moderate use, established scientific experts.
The work has shown that the regular presence in the diet of meat and dairy products reduces the chance of heart disease by 22 %, and the probability of premature death by 25 %. A similar pattern was identified on the basis of the analysis of more than 218 000 people.
Separately, scientists have noted the need to maintain a certain volume of servings of meat and dairy products. They spoke about what a day is useful to eat no more than three servings of “milk” (it’s the equivalent of six slices of cheese or three cups of yogurt). As for meat, it is recommended to eat no more than one serving of red meat, i.e., not more than 150 grams.
According to the researchers, their findings clearly differ from those known today dietary trends.
“Maybe that someone will be outraged, but we have found that cheese and meat products have a positive effect on life expectancy and cardiovascular health,” he said in this regard, the Director of the research Institute of public health, McMaster University Salim Yusuf.
