It's the same with low carb diets, high-fructose corn syrup, vaccinations, etc, there will always be the problem of researchers making results suit their own agenda. I'm not sure what the solution is. I see your point about milk fattening babies, but the study is looking at adults who consume all types of food and drink, not just milk. The suggestion is that when your diet is higher in calcium from dairy, a reduced amount of fat may be absorbed by the body. Hi Neil,

Would like to know a couple of things. First off: who is responsible for funding the studies? This "research" smacks of special interest. It would seriously surprise me to find that the dairy industry was not involved. Also, how do these studies stack up to others of their kind? I am aware of several studies that are just as well cited and specifically state the opposite result. Am all for drinking milk and getting calcium into my diet. I do it myself daily. But, more dairy as a weight loss supplement? Seriously? How does it make sense that the very product (milk) that is responsible for fattening up babies of all species...is now thought to do the opposite (ie.make us skinny)? Interesting.

I suppose people need to be in tune with their hunger though, because they could end up adding extra dairy to their diet on top of everything else they eat, rather than cutting back a little, as you mentioned, at lunchtime.
