Drinking 1% rather than 2% milk accounts for 4.5 years of less aging in adults

Posted by in categories: biological, life extension

A new study shows drinking low-fat milk—both nonfat and 1% milk—is significantly associated with less aging in adults.

Research on 5,834 U.S. adults by Brigham Young University exercise science professor Larry Tucker, Ph.D., found people who drink low-fat experience several years less biological aging than those who drink high-fat (2% and whole) milk.

“It was surprising how strong the difference was,” Tucker said. “If you’re going to drink high-fat milk, you should be aware that doing so is predictive of or related to some significant consequences.”
