Health benefits of full-fat dairy foods

Consuming full-fat foods such as cheese, yogurt, and milk may not be as harmful as previously believed, especially when considering the interaction of their components and accompanying nutrients. Although they contain certain amounts of saturated fats (about 5 grams per 30 grams of cheese, 150 grams of yogurt, or 200 milliliters of milk), studies have shown that their effect on blood cholesterol levels varies. Ingredients like protein, calcium, and the fermentation process help modulate fat absorption and cholesterol levels in a neutral or even beneficial way. For instance, calcium in dairy products may bind with fatty acids, reducing their absorption, while live bacteria in kefir may decrease cholesterol absorption. Overall, research indicates that consuming these foods in moderation, while considering their nutritional components, can be part of a healthy diet without increasing the risk of high cholesterol or cardiovascular disease.
