WEIGHT LOSS TIPS

MORE MILK TO LOSE WEIGHT : Can Dairy Actually Help You Lose Weight?

We have all seen the ads on television and in our magazines. They show celebrities with milk moustaches and the line reads drink milk and loses weight. But is this true? The Dairy council says it is. They recommend that we add three dairy products to our daily diet. We should drink the low-fat varieties of these products to lose this weight. But they also say you must also reduce our daily calorie intake as well as exercise. Many doctors and health professionals believe that milk can cause us to lose weight. They also say that drinking more milk will help us to keep the muscle that we should be building with exercise. Another benefit they say you get from milk and dairy products is that they fill you up quicker. This means you are able to eat less. The protein in dairy products takes longer for our body to digest because of the water content. This is why we seem fuller, quicker. Plus, we all know that dairy products contain calcium. Milk is highly known as the best source of calcium. Yet, to be fair, the Dairy council recommended only three servings of dairy a day, not more than three.
