Could Cream from Grass-Fed Cows Actually Help You? (Premium)
If you consume dairy, the source of milk can make a big difference to your health. Of course, some people can’t tolerate casein—the main protein in cow’s milk—or lactose, the main sugar in the milk. Others choose to avoid dairy completely. But for those who eat or drink dairy products, you should know what you are getting. All milk and cream is not the same.
A new study in the British Journal of Nutrition showed that when cream was consumed from cows that were pasture-fed, it led to a stronger intestinal barrier and improved metabolic outcome than when cream from standard dairy cows was consumed.
