Metabolic syndrome is defined as the presence of at least three of five conditions that increase the risk of diabetes, heart disease, and stroke--high blood pressure, high levels of blood sugar or triglycerides, excess belly fat, and low "good" cholesterol levels
The results showed that children who drank less than one cup of milk each day had significantly higher levels of fasting insulin than those who drank less than or at least two cups a day.
"Our findings indicate that obese children who consume at least the daily recommended amount of milk may have more favourable sugar handling and this could help guard against metabolic syndrome," said Michael Yafi from the University of Texas Health Science Centre, US

For the study, the team analysed 353 obese kids and adolescents aged three to 18 years and recorded information on daily milk intake, milk types, sugary drinks intake, fasting blood glucose, and insulin sensitivity.
The results presented at 2018 European Congress on Obesity (ECO) in Austria, showed that kids who drank at least two cups of milk a day no association between milk intake and blood glucose or lipid levels.
Another study, presented at the 2018 ECO, stated that dairy products had no link in the development of childhood obesity, as thought earlier.
According to the researchers, no evidence was found to suggest that body fatness varied by type of milk or dairy products, or with age ..

Milk's good for you.
I still drink my two cups of milk every day and I haven't been a kid for a long time. : )
I drink milk everyday and I am almost 72 years old!
A classmate in grade school went and got a milk during the day twicwe which we thought neat. Inever thought about him also getting shots and blood checks
Interesting read about that.
I always enjoy your articles, very interesting. I love a glass of milk, always have.
Milk should definitely be part of a family's daily menu. How much? Well, our body will tell us, and not this or that research, but it's good to read that milk drinking is good.
Very interesting. I used to love milk, drank it all the time now I never buy it. I was drinking probably more than I needed.
Hmm ~ interesting post ~
