Is fat good for you? It’s being seen as a much more healthy option theses days. For many years skimmed or semi skimmed milk has been viewed as better for you, but it seems now that full fat milk may be good for your heart.

It boosts levels of good cholesterol in the bloodstream,and bad cholesterol wasn’t increased. Other studies have also shown that full fat dairy is linked to lower levels of diabetes. Their findings add weight to the idea that full fat milk is no worse than low fat and may even be better for you.

Volunteers who ate low fat or full fat cheese over a three week test period were found to have no change in their cholesterol levels. We have been told by the experts to opt for low fat dairy, and that has blossomed into a multi million pound industry, but it seems that we may not be reaping the benefits we were told to expect.

What will lower your cholesterol is a plant based diet. If we eat more grains,fruit and nuts,we will have less saturated fat intake.Vegetarians were found to have less cholesterol than meat eaters.

So maybe what we take from this is that a vegetarian diet is the best option, and then we can include full fat dairy, which seems to be beneficial, contrary to the message we have been given over the years.
