Dairy products won’t make you skinny, evidence says
Adding a couple of servings of milk or yogurt to your daily diet probably won’t help you drop any pants sizes, according to a new analysis of past studies.
Some research has suggested dairy products may help people feel full for longer, or that the calcium in milk and yogurt can prevent the build-up of fat tissue. But those remain unproven theories.
“The results are not very consistent,” said Dr. Frank Hu, a nutrition researcher from the Harvard School of Public Health in Boston who worked on the new review.
“Overall, I think the evidence doesn’t support the claim that dairy products are beneficial for weight loss,” he said.
