Milk is often celebrated as a symbol of health, but does its consumption always align with well-being? A recent Swedish study published in BMC Medicine <\/a> explored the relationship between fermented and non-fermented milk consumption and the risk of ischemic heart disease (IHD) and acute myocardial infarction (AMI).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Key Findings of the Study<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

This longitudinal study followed 100,775 participants (59,998 women and 40,777 men) without a history of IHD or cancer at baseline for up to 33 years. During the follow-up, 17,896 cases of IHD, including 10,714 heart attacks, were documented. The findings revealed significant differences between fermented and non-fermented milk:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  • Non-Fermented Milk<\/strong>:\n
      \n
    • Women consuming more than 1.5 glasses daily showed a progressively higher risk of IHD and AMI.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • For example, women drinking 4 glasses daily had a 21% higher risk of IHD compared to those consuming only 0.5 glasses per day.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • This trend was consistent across whole, medium-fat, and low-fat milk varieties.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • In men, no similar increase in risk was observed.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Fermented Milk<\/strong> (e.g., yogurt and kefir):\n
        \n
      • No association was found between fermented milk consumption and the risk of IHD or AMI in either sex.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

        Biological Basis of Milk and Heart Health<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

        Among women consuming high amounts of non-fermented milk, changes in plasma proteins linked to cardiometabolic processes were observed:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          \n
        • ACE2<\/strong> (angiotensin-converting enzyme 2): Elevated levels of this protein were associated with milk intake and may contribute to the increased risk.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        • FGF21<\/strong> (fibroblast growth factor 21): Lower levels of this protein suggest reduced metabolic flexibility.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

          What Does This Mean for Daily Life?<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

          The findings suggest that milk consumption should be moderated, especially in women who drink large quantities of non-fermented milk. Fermented dairy products, such as yogurt, remain a safe option and show no connection to increased heart risks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          Conclusion<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

          While milk offers numerous health benefits, this study highlights the importance of moderation and choosing the right type of dairy. If you're a milk enthusiast, consider incorporating fermented options, which may be a better ally for your heart health.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
