Recent ads stating that the consumption of dairy products mainly milk is good for you and that it promotes weight loss is totally misleading according to scientists and health researchers. Though milk may provide the body’s daily calcium intake, it is also loaded with fats that are inherent of the product making it more of a cause of obesity than it’s bane. Statistics are telling the truth that these claims are totally false and bogus for while bones may benefit from calcium it has no bearing on weight loss and can even increase the chances of heart disease. A more healthier diet would be in accordance with the food triangle that provides all the necessary nutrients and dietary fiber needs for one to maintain good health. Combined with proper exercise and lifestyle changes proves to be a better solution than increased intake of milk and calcium supplements. Experts warn of the ill effects of such misleading advertising that costs thousands of dollars but may have no health benefits so be warned.
