7 Common Myths About Dairy Products

By: Getdistributors

Only Source of Calcium

Dairy products are however a major source of calcium. But, there are several plant-based alternatives like kale, broccoli, tofu, and fortified non-dairy milks that are also equally rich in calcium.

Lactose-free products go through specific processing that removes lactose. However, they still have dairy components and may not be safe for those with dairy allergies.

Lactose-Free  Means Dairy-Free

Intake of dairy products is not always connected with weight gain and  when included as part of a balanced diet.

Leads to Weight Gain

High in Fat

Although whole milk and some cheeses are rich in saturated fats, there is a wide range of low-fat and fat-free choices such as skim milk, low-fat yogurt, and reduced-fat cheese.

Dairy Causes Acne

The dairy products can be a reason for acne to aggravate for some people. This varies depending on the amount of dairy they eat and their general health conditions.

Raw Milk is Safer & Healthier

Compared to pasteurized, raw milk is more vulnerable to foodborne illnesses because pasteurization kills harmful bacteria. Health authorities strongly prohibit the use of raw milk because of the serious health risks associated with it.

Dairy Causes Osteoporosis

Contrary to many myths, dairy products are connected with a lower risk of osteoporosis because of their calcium and vitamin D content, which is essential for bone health.
