What’s better for you, full fat or low fat? Full fat milk or skimmed milk? It’s so confusing , we’re being bombarded with conflicting information the whole time.

Latest reports now indicate that people who drink skimmed milk are more likely to develop Parkinsons disease. A major study found a significant link between consumption of low fat dairy such as yogurt, milk and cheese and the neurological condition. The researchers processed data from 130,000 people over 25 years. Of the people who drank skimmed or semi skimmed milk more than twice a day, 39% were more likely to  develop Parkinsons, than those who consumed it less than once a week.  Crucially, the same link wasn’t seen in consumption of full fat milk.

They also analysed how often people ate other forms of low fat dairy, the researchers found that those who consumed at least three servings a day  had a 34% greater chance of developing Parkinsons, than those who consumed less than one serving a day.

Around 127,000 people in the UK have Parkinsons which causes tremors,slow movements and muscle rigidity. It progressively destroys cells in the part of the brain that controls movement. There is currently no cure and no way of stopping its progression. Experts suspect that low fat dairy products have the potential to raise the  risk of developing it and to hasten its progression.

Researchers believe low fat dairy consumption reduces levels of protective chemicals in the body. Eating full fat lessens this impact and so may stave off the onset or the progression.
