Eat These Common Dairy Products To Avoid Heart Attacks, Study Suggests

Greasy, fatty meals with few nutrients have been linked to heart attacks. However, there are a few foods that may help you avoid them, according to a new report. 

Researchers from the University of Eastern Finland recently conducted a study, published in the British Journal of Nutrition, to determine the link between risk of cardiac arrest and fermented and non-fermented dairy products. Fermented dairy products include buttermilk, sour cream and cheese, and non-fermented dairy products include milk.

For their assessment, they examined about 2,000 men between 1984 and 1989, evaluating their lifestyle and nutritional habits. They then divided the subjects into four groups based on their dairy intake and followed up with them after about 20 years.
