Proper British Now - Day 55 by MarkAllanson, on Flickr

Yes, you read that right. Turns out…

The study showed that children who drink full-fat milk every day weigh on average just over 4 kg less.

As a matter of fact…

Children who often drink milk with a fat content of 3% are less overweight. The thesis shows also that the children eat more saturated fat than recommended, but those children who have a high intake of fat have a lower BMI than the children with a lower intake of fat.

Now, isn’t that interesting? Gee, fat intake, and specifically saturated fat intake doesn’t seem to correlate to obesity. Hm. I wonder if doctors and dietitians read Science Daily.
