Greater total dairy, milk intake related to higher risk for stroke, mortality in angina

In patients with stable angina, increased risk for stroke and mortality was positively correlated with higher consumption of milk and total dairy intake, researchers reported in the European Journal of Preventive Cardiology.
Further, butter consumption was related to increased risk for acute MI, whereas cheese was found to lower this risk, according to the researchers.
“Our results support the suggestion that not all dairy products are alike regarding health and disease,” Anthea Van Parys, MS, a PhD student in the department of clinical science at the University of Bergen in Norway
