Observational research is great for pointing out associations that merit further study — typically with randomized clinical trials — to determine if there is a causal relationship. In 2018, these observational studies caught our eye: 1. Could full-fat dairy help you live longer? Otto de Oliveira et. al. in The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition:Serial measures of circulating biomarkers of dairy fat and total and cause-specific mortality in older adults: the Cardiovascular Health Study Long-term exposure to circulating… [fatty acids from dairy fat] was not significantly associated with total mortality or incident cardiovascular disease among older adults.

Is it possible to lose weight without starvation? FREE Download: Ketogenic Diet Book » KetoVIP.

62 viewsFor decades the medical world has seen type 2 diabetes as a chronic condition that we can only hope to manage with medications to delay inevitable complications.
