A drink that has a magical effect … one cup a day protects you from heart disease

A recent scientific study revealed what it described as the “magic effect”, when you drink a cup of milk daily, confirming that it greatly reduces the risk of heart disease.
British media outlets quoted the study authors as saying that “those who drank milk every day reduced the risk of coronary heart disease by 14 percent.”

Scientists also discovered that those who had a mutation that enabled them to consume large amounts of milk were less likely to have cardiovascular disease, after studying the health information of two million Britons and Americans.

The team of researchers also found that milk drinkers had low levels of cholesterol, which leads to clogged arteries, heart attacks or strokes.

Lead author and nutritionist at the University of Reading Vimal Karani said: “We found that among the participants who had a genetic variation associated with eating more milk, they had higher BMI and body fat, but more importantly, they had lower levels of good and bad cholesterol. “.

He continued: “We also found that those with genetic diversity have a significantly lower risk of developing coronary heart disease, and all this indicates that reducing milk intake may not be necessary to prevent cardiovascular disease.”

The miners found that regular milk drinkers generally had a higher body mass index (BMI) compared to those who did not drink milk. The team from the University of Reading, the University of South Australia, the South Australian Institute of Health and Medical Research, University College London and the University of Auckland have taken a genetic approach to milk consumption.

They looked at a variation in the lactase gene associated with digesting the milk sugars known as lactose, and they found that those carrying this substitute had a good way to identify those who consumed more milk.
