Eating cheese and yogurt helps protect against premature death, study finds - Fox 2

Eating dairy products, especially cheese and yogurt, was found to protect against premature death from any cause, according to researchers.

Yes, cheese. But the research also suggests that when it comes to effects on our health, not all dairy is created equal.

A team of researchers, led by Professor Maciej Banach of the Medical University of Lodz in Poland, reviewed data from U.S. health and nutritional surveys conducted between 1999 and 2010.

The researchers found consumption of all dairy products to be associated with a 2 percent lower risk of death from all causes and the consumption of cheese to be associated with an 8 percent lower risk.
